She recalled one incident when her daughter was left with a friend, and when she went to check on the child she noticed burn marks on her daughter’s arms.“After I saw that I decided to stay at home with Natasha. I could have cared for her and given her the attention she needed, but financially I was unable to care for my two daughters,” she added.Some time later, Jacqueline again made a decision to find a job in an effort to make a better life for her two daughters.“I went to Kwakwani to look for a job and I left Natasha with some very good friends, and when I came back they told me they took her to the hospital…she was only nine, and a doctor told me that was the best place for her, but in the meantime try to find a home for her.” Jacqueline said she and other relatives tried getting Natasha into several children’s homes but were turned down,Maglietta Roma Bambino, and as a result Natasha was left in the care of nurses at the Georgetown Hospital.The aggrieved mother described her daughter as an affectionate person who craved attention.She is adamant that the young woman would never interfere with anyone.

She never agreed with this decision, but had to choice.“I never abandoned Natasha. I was just looking after her best interest.

The incident has left questions in her mother’s mind as well as the fear for other patients’ lives.“Where were the nurses? Where were the security guards? I think it’s negligence that caused my daughter’s death,” Jacqueline stated. She also questioned why the woman who killed her daughter is still being housed at the hospital instead of the Fort Canje mental institution. The woman said she has not yet received any official word from the Georgetown Hospital as to what really transpired. Meanwhile, for Natasha’s younger sister Nikita, the death came as a shock, even as she celebrated her birthday yesterday.“Today is my birthday, and the day before my birthday I heard that my sister was killed… I cried, because we were planning to go see her in the hospital…it would have been easier if she died of natural causes, but the fact that she was killed is hard to accept, because she didn’t deserve that,” Nikita said with teary eyes.Natasha was allegedly strangled with a piece of cloth by another patient of the Psychiatric Ward sometime around 4:00 hours on Saturday, after being beaten by the same woman.
