SIBUSISO Mabhena survived his long-time friend Sfiso Ncwane’s funeral in Durban.
But on Sunday evening, the 31-year-old collapsed while watching a tribute to the gospel star on TV. He regained consciousness in hospital, where he was told he had suffered a heart attack. Sibusiso from Tweefontein, near KwaMhlanga in Mpumalanga, is still recovering in hospital. He said when he saw his friend’s coffin being lowered into the ground on TV, he suddenly realised he would never see Sfiso again.
“I was very emotional after I returned from the funeral in Durban. Watching the tribute on TV was the last straw.
“I felt my heart pounding and my chest felt like it was going to explode. I don’t know what happened after that.”
Doctors told Sibusiso he had suffered a heart attack and advised him not to think about his late friend too much.
“It will take me a long time to accept my friend’s death.
Sibusiso held a memorial service for Sfiso in Witbank last Thursday. He said about 7 000 people came to pay their last respect.
