Trevor was born out of wedlock due to his mother’s strong desire to have a child.
Patricia did not experience her parents’ affection, making her want a kid to love unconditionally. She gave birth to Trevor under apartheid, when marrying a mixed-race person was banned. Patricia met Robert Noah in her town of Hillbrow, a safe haven for white people under apartheid. She did not desire marriage at the moment but rather a kid. Robert, a Swiss-German twice Patricia’s age, denied having a kid out of fear of being discovered but ended up having Trevor due to Patricia’s tenacity.
Her first marriage was rife with abuse.
Even after apartheid ended, the cultural mindset that lingered became the cause for her divorce from Robert. She met and married Ngisaveni Abel Shingange, a tall mechanic, in 1992. She realized she had married a guy in disguise who seemed to be kind in public but was violent at home. In front of the public and personnel, he began hitting her with bicycle frames. Because of his aggressive conduct, she had to reside in the garden shed to get away from him. In 1996, she divorced him.
Even after the divorce, her ex-husband did not spare her and shot her almost to death.
Patricia remarried in July 2009 to Sfiso Khoza, but her ex-husband did not spare her and abused her. In his wrath, he hunted her down and shot her almost to death. He shot her in the head and lower torso twice. But, by God’s mercy, both bullets went through her body without striking any important organs, arteries, veins, or nerves. He also threatened Trevor’s life.
A brave mother who raised her children all on her own despite facing circumstances that came by
Patricia is a mother to three kids, Trevor from her love connection with Robert, Andrew from her marriage to Abel Shingange, and Isaac Shingange from her marriage to Abel Shingange. She reared Trevor by keeping him in a room most of the time, away from the eyes of the authorities and the dread of being taken away from her and placed in an orphanage.
She had to step out in public while pretending to be a stranger in front of her kid. She had to shield her other two boys from her violent spouse as well. Her son Isaac was just 15 months old when they relocated to a backyard shed, where they resided for seven years. She is a great hero in the lives of her children.
