MATERNITY WARD; BLOEMFONTEIN



The maternity ward where I as well as my two sons, Johan and Christo were born at the National Hospital in Bloemfontein. Currently it is used to consult marginalized patients who are in need of medical treatment. The milk box in front of the entrance is used by the security man to sit down during the night. Still, the building which was build in 1938, holds a special remembrance for the older folks of Bloemfontein where most of the babies were born until the new maternity wards were built elsewhere in the city. Sanmarié, our daughter, was one of the first round of babies to be born in the new Universitas Hospital.
