Mzansi shared their personal experiences with grief and the loss of a parent. Some people even comforted the star.
@Alethiest stated:
"Surprisingly, it tore me up every day before she passed. When it finally sank in that she would not make it out, I cried constantly. Yet since the moment she passed, I have not shed a single tear. Even on the day I watched her sink into the earth, not one tear rolled down my cheek."
@Yammi_Mangali shared:
"Stepped out of the shower one random morning and noticed my hair looked a lot like my grandmother’s, and I broke down in tears."
@stevenson_o stated:
"It gets hard every single day, it's been a year now, but it still feels like yesterday, and family dynamics don't end."
@ZimSix6 shared:
"I’m extremely extroverted, but I became remote, had tattoos and didn’t celebrate my birthday as she was one person who would make it clear that 'I’m your transport to life'. It has been five years, and this year I’m celebrating my birthday in 8 days. I’m planning a lovely gathering."
@GrannyMaDlamini revealed:
"There is no healing. Some days are better than others. This pain is permanent. You will die with it. You can't say to someone that they, must be strong. It is a poignant feeling. I lost my mom last year. It is like she is away somewhere. Still in denial that she is gone."
