Hats of to Vicky Nel
Firstly hats of to Vicky Nel who assisted me, I was actually very nervous I think I even told her this while we were chatting... She made the process easy to understand and and also made it very easy for me to follow the process of signing documents etc... I felt really nervous doing this but her swift replies and the fact that she was very informative and knew what she was doing kept me grounded.. I would recommend that anyone going through this kind of stress reach out immediately and take the 1st step to stop stressing.
