Beautiful twin sisters from the Langa community in Cape Town have died after they both succumbed to Covid-19 related illnesses. The 45-year-old sisters, Phumla and Phumeza Lugulwana, died only a day apart.
According to their mom, 70-year-old Sindiswa, Phumla was admitted to the hospital where she spent five weeks after experiencing breathing difficulties. Phumeza then also started experiencing the same and was admitted to Vincent Palloti Hospital on the 27th of December last year.
Their mom Sindiswe says that she is unaware how Phumeza became ill since the two of them had been separated for the entire five weeks, also adding that a few weeks thereafter she got the dreaded call that Phumeza had passed on.
Her grief was not over as IOL reports that after sharing the tragic news with Phumla, she too died, only a day after her twin sister, who Sindiswa says she was very close to. Sindiswa also says that she thinks that Phumla may have died from a broken heart.
Meanwhile, tributes have been pouring in from those closest to Phumla on her Facebook page as many say their final goodbyes to her. Read a few of their posts below:
