Assistance for Alison Botha after suffering another life-threatening setback

Loading player...
After Alison Botha survived rape and mutilation and the hands of two Satanists (she was stabbed in the abdomen 37 times, disembowelled, and her throat slit 17 times) - she employed the same willpower she did when she crawled from the bushes to the roadside, to deny her attackers any emotional hold over her, by refusing to be a victim. Now, after building a life of hope and spreading a message of triumph over the worst kind of adversary, the 57-year-old Alison Botha is again fighting for her life. She suffered a brain aneurysm about a month ago. The Good Morning Angels Fund, representing our listeners, will donate R100,000 towards the Alison Botha Trust, for her medical and recovery needs.
