Nokuthula Radebe and her son, Kuhlesibonge, share their clubfoot success story

On the 16th September 2018, I gave birth to my beautiful son Kuhlesibonge Radebe. I named him Kuhle because I saw a beautiful flower that will take care of me when he grew up. When I gave birth, the nurse noticed that my child had a little problem – she advised that I go get the necessary checks. This is when I found out my son had clubfoot.
