Editor’s Life Seven months after his 21st birthday, my nephew Clinton Eccles was injured in a severe car accident on 11 May 2014. He suffered pulmonary contusions to the lungs and a broken jaw which required eight plates and more than 30 screws to reconstruct. The most severe injury, however, was to his spine. Clint fractured his fourth and fifth vertebrae. These vertebrae were replaced by a bone graft from his hip, fused to a plate.

The accident has left Clinton medically diagnosed as a quadriplegic. Practically, this means he has no movement from his chest down. This road has been long and hard, keeping Clinton in ICU and on a ventilator for more than three months. On 11 August Clinton was eventually weaned off the ventilator and he is undergoing rehabilitation at Entabeni Hospital. Due to the severity of the spinal injury, Clinton’s life is naturally going to change drastically. He will require continued medical assistance and a caregiver. There are certain aids and devices that Clinton will require to improve his quality of life, such as a wheelchair, treatment and an altered living environment catering to his needs.

Everyday Life
Care for Your Pets Owning a pet is a responsibility and not a right. They need to be fed, loved, have shelter, exercise, and be disciplined and have medical treatment provided for them. Will your pet be an indoor or outdoor pet? They need feeding bowls, preferably stainless steel, toys and a brush or comb. Puppies and kittens need to be dewormed from two weeks of age. They can be born with worms, especially if the pregnant mom was not dewormed. Humans form part of the life cycle of some worms, therefore it is important that we deworm ourselves and our pets. Worms not seen in stool/faeces of pets does not mean that they do not have worms. Eggs are only seen under a microscope. Puppies need to be vaccinated from six weeks and kittens from eight weeks. It is important that they stay with their moms until they are weaned and vaccinated. They need to be fed appropriately for their age, sex, breed and purpose, e.g. a Miniature Pincher pup cannot eat the same food as a Great Dane puppy.

I Thought The World Was Ending – An Earthquake Victim For some weeks the recent earthquake was on the minds of most South Africans, including all of us here in Durban. I think most of us feel we are ‘immune’ to this catastrophe. After all, it only happens in cities such as San Francisco, Tokyo, Los Angeles – not us here in South Africa! Sadly, many living in the area of the quake have suffered extensive damage to their homes and have had to vacate them until they can be rebuilt.

This reminded me of a claim we handled a few years ago when one of my clients lost part of their home in a fire. Suddenly, in a matter of seconds, this family had no home, no bed, no clothes – not even a toothbrush.

Alternative accommodation had to be provided for this unfortunate family and this was paid for by the insurance company they were insured with. What a relief for them as it assisted greatly with the unexpected costs they suddenly faced. Most insurance policies do offer this cover. Normally if a building becomes temporarily uninhabitable as a result of destruction or damage caused by an insured event, the insurance company will pay you an amount based on the rental value of your dwelling. Tip of the month If your building is insured through your finance bank, still take control. Get a copy, check it and make sure the sum insured for the building is sufficient and it provides the necessary extensions, e.g. Loss of Rent spoken about above.

This Month’s Food Market Food Hero
President Alice Leah 031 - 573 1731 (ext 5)
Col’tempo Salumeria is a family run business based in Durban. It all started with a passion for food and the search for a real challenge. Hylton Rabinowitz started experimenting with cured meats around 2010. When his son Paul returned from living in Italy, they decided to test the salami on the public. The response was amazing and they were encouraged to carry on. Four years on the business is still growing and they have a clear vision to stay proudly local, while applying the centuries-old Italian tradition mixed with new technology and innovative processes. Remaining true to their name, everything is made ‘Col’tempo’ (with time). “We make all our cured meats in the traditional Italian way. Which means the salami and other whole meats are aged/ seasoned for one to three months or longer in a very controlled environment, in fact we go so far as to replicate the seasons found in Italy so that we ensure the product cures properly. We find that most of the local salami that is being sold as “Italian” salami is actually smoked or chemically cured, which allows butcheries to skip the ageing process, and instead of the two months that it takes us, they make it in two days,” explained Paul.

Gourmet Vegetarian Feast Served Up at Harvey’s Chefs Andrew Draper (Head Chef from the renowned Harvey’s restaurant in Umhlanga) and Nizam Peeroo (Group Executive chef from the Five Star Indigo hotels group in Mauritius) recently created an array of restaurant style vegetarian dishes in a successful Fry’s Family Foods cooking demonstration. Wally Fry, co-founder of Fry’s Family Foods said; “We invited key media and industry players in the food arena to our demonstration as we wanted to show just how delicious a vegetarian meal can be when it is prepared with passion and imagination and with quality ingredients. The meals that Andrew and Nizam prepared were astounding and really showed how you can have a satisfying meal full of flavour without meat.” After enjoying canapés all made using Fry’s vegetarian products, guests were treated to the food demonstration which was followed by delectable taster servings of the dishes prepared by the two chefs. “The vegetarian products from Fry’s are far more stable than meat during cooking, which makes it easier to work with,” Andrew Draper said.

Basic Facts on Sun Protection • Sun damage is cumulative. Each dose of ultraviolet radiation (UVR), large and small, adds up, leading to skin wrinkling, dyspigmentation and skin cancer. • There is no such thing as a “healthy tan”. Skin tanning is a response to UVR skin injury. • Avoid sun exposure between the hours of 10am and 2pm, when UVB is most intense. Plan outdoor activities for early morning or late afternoon. • Protect the skin with clothing first, and apply sunscreen to any remaining unprotected skin. • Use protective clothing on overcast days. Although UVR is less intense on overcast days, it is still present and adds to cumulative skin damage. • UVR is reflected off of sand, concrete and snow and adds to the total UVR exposure. Because UVR is reflected and scattered, sitting in the shade is not totally protective and sunburn can occur. • Do not use tanning beds. Although tanning beds emit primarily UVA, overexposure can cause sunburn and their use enhances skin ageing and the risk of skin cancer. • Teach children to protect themselves from the sun at an early age. • Use a broad spectrum waterproof/ resistant sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or more evenly on all sun exposed areas.

Support Group for Those Affected By Down Syndrome National Down Syndrome Day will be commemorated on 20 October to create awareness about the condition. Down Syndrome is a condition in which extra genetic material causes delays in the way a child develops, both mentally and physically. You’re Magical is a support group in Durban that’s designed to assist people with Down Syndrome; to know they are special, gifted and unique. The mission is to create and nurture a loving and inclusive community, celebrating every person with a disability, including Down Syndrome. “We will accomplish this mission by empowering and supporting families and individuals who have been touched by Down Syndrome. We want to work together to increase education, promote public understanding and acceptance, work toward full inclusion, and defend the civil rights of individuals with Down Syndrome,” said the group’s founder, Trudy Chetty. Their vision also embraces professionals and the cross disability community. They believe that relationships are the cornerstone of the organisation and that they should be both honoured and nurtured. “We want to inspire community acceptance by sharing with others the presence, potential and abilities of people with Down syndrome. We want to build an organisation, and to be able to build a community of informed and empowered parents with children with Down Syndrome.” You’re Magical presently has the support of two hospitals in Durban who will allow the group usage of their premises on certain days to conduct speech and occupational therapy for children that require it, but cannot afford to. These sessions will be conducted by volunteer speech and occupational therapists. For more information contact Trudy Chetty on 083 318 1276, Twitter: @youre_magical or @trudychetty. www.mumsmail.com

SnoreMeds
Not Just a Solution, It’s a Lifestyle Choice Loud snoring should have alarm bells rather than alarm clocks ringing. Latest research shows that loud snoring should not just irritate sleep deprived bed partners, but also prompt them to ask questions about the cardiovascular health of their loved ones. Latest research at the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit indicates that snoring is a bigger risk factor for stroke and heart disease than well-known menaces such as smoking, obesity and high cholesterol. They suggest that loud snoring at night could even indicate that the carotid arteries – which supply oxygen-rich blood to the brain – could be damaged. The Detroit researchers believe that the damage can be caused by the trauma and inflammation stemming from the vibrations that give rise to that pesky sound that we know as snoring. This makes treating snoring early all the more important.
The reason that it is so important to respond to the snoring warning, is that heart disease is a leading cause of death in South Africa, and one that is likely to increase. According to the Medical Research Council of South Africa, between 1997 and 2004, 195 people died per day because of some form of heart and blood vessel disease. Premature deaths caused by heart and blood vessel diseases in people of working age (35-64 years) are expected to increase by 41% between 2000 and 2030. They urge people and doctors to regard snoring as an early warning system. With early testing and an early diagnosis, those with heart problems can look forward to a better quality of life and a longer one! Visit Snoremeds online to find out more at www.snoremeds.co.za.

Help For Parents of Troubled Teens
DAVENPORT DENTAL STUDIO Dr I. M. Salejee - Dentist
October is Mental Health Awareness Month. Clinical Psychologist, Rizwana Ahmed, gives some advice to parents of troubled teens. As teenagers begin to assert their independence and find their own identity, many experience behavioural changes that can seem bizarre and unpredictable. At what point does normal teen behaviour become troubled teen behaviour? A troubled teen faces behavioural, emotional, or learning problems beyond the normal teenage issues. It is important for parents to understand which behaviours are normal during adolescent development, and which can point to more serious issues. It’s normal for teenagers to want to change their appearance, keep up with fashion trends, wear attention seeking clothing, or want to dye their hair or get tattoos. However, changing appearance can be seen as problematic if it’s accompanied by problems at school or other negative changes in behaviour, such as evidence of cutting and self-harm, or extreme weight loss or weight gain. Mood swings are part of teenage behaviour due to hormonal changes. However, rapid changes in personality, failing grades, persistent sadness, fatigue, irritability, anger, anxiety or sleep problems could indicate depression, bullying or other emotional health issues. Take any talk about suicide very seriously and seek professional help immediately. During the teen years, friends become extremely important and can have a great influence on their choices. If your teen suddenly changes peer groups, especially if the new friends encourage negative behaviour, this should be seen as problematic. If you identify any troubled behaviours in your teen, consult a mental health professional for help. Source: Rizwana Ahmed, Clinical Psychologist, 031 – 837 2265. 45

Love Long Length: Clothing for Tall Women Love Long Length is the result of a mother and daughter’s struggle to find clothing suited for tall women. Brenda is 5ft 11 (180cm) and Kristi is 6ft 1 (186cm). Together, they have launched a collection of clothing to meet the needs of tall women in South Africa (approximately 5ft 10 and taller). Kristi was 6 feet tall by the age of 15 and her choice of clothing was limited to say the least. It was very difficult to dress on trend and even the basics, such as a cute pair of long pyjama pants for the winter, was a rare luxury. It was not uncommon to have to buy two pairs of longs on sale, cut the bottom end of one pair off, and sew it onto the other for length! This is one of many reasons they started their first collection with a gorgeous selection of pyjama and super comfy loungewear pants.

Call us on 086 133 3779 expert@lizaclifford.com
Brenda and Kristi are looking forward to launching their summer dress collection, which will include not only a long-length maxi dress, but also a “short” dress that will reach just above the knee. “Most shortlength dresses available in my favourite stores fit more like a ‘tunic’ and end up having to be worn with tights. We’d love to give ladies a few summer dress options that can be worn comfortably as a dress,” explained Kristi.

Say Goodbye to Dull, Flaky and Damaged Skin Exfolimate is the ultimate tool that delivers younger, fresher looking and feeling skin. This handy skin smoothing mate rejuvenates your complexion by instantly exfoliating and clarifying the skin’s pores, removing lingering dead skin and debris that causes nasty black heads and breakouts. Unlike traditional scrubs and loofahs, which simply shift around lingering skin cells, Exfolimate is 98% more effective at removing dead skin with just water. The secret is Exfolimate’s innovative microgroove technology etched into each skin smoothing edge. These micro-grooves are precision designed to lift away dead skin cells from the surface, leaving behind smoother feeling and looking skin. With gentle fingertip pressure at a 90-degree angle, glide the Exfolimate face or body tool along the contours of your skin for easy exfoliation. Use Exfolimate to lift ingrown hairs, before a spray-tan for a smoother coverage, for touchable feet, a smoother shave and cleaner base for cosmetics and also to remove sun crèmes and oils. Ultra hygienic Exfolimate won’t harbour germs or bacteria like frail shower mitts. Simply run the tool under warm running water to remove any lingering oils or debris and hang to dry for your next Exfolimate experience. Whether you’re on the go, or pampering your skin at home, make sure you bring your skin’s best mate for radiant, healthy looking skin.

LeapBand – Fit Made Fun! LeapFrog, the leader in educational entertainment, has unveiled LeapBand, the first wearable physical activity tracker designed just for children that encourages active play and healthy habits, while nurturing their very own personalised virtual pet. The LeapBand activity tracker gets kids moving and having fun with 50 different activities and challenges, tracking a child’s physical movements so the more active a child is, the more points they earn with their virtual pet. As they earn points through active play, they can unlock additional games, challenges, levels of play and virtual rewards for their on-screen pet. The device also doubles-up as both a digital and analogue watch. The LeapBand activity tracker comes with eight different customisable pets from LeapFrog’s popular Pet Pals franchise: a cat, dog, dragon, monkey, panda, penguin, robot and unicorn, which can be customised by colour and name. With their very own virtual pal, children can play preloaded active games and challenges with access to 50 free challenges in total. As they move and earn points, kids can unlock each of the additional eight pets and earn virtual toys for each of them as they stay engaged and learning with mini-games, including Pet Boogie, Pet Chef and Pet Parlour.

The Bilibo, a Must-Have Toy It’s hard to remember where I first came across a Bilibo, a strange, shell-shaped container of sorts. Was it a chair, a spinning device, a bucket? As an Occupational Therapist I am always on the lookout for new toys, especially ones which stimulate the senses. The Bilibo is definitely a movement toy; great for vestibular input with the added benefit that it can be used in small spaces. It is also perfect for open-ended play that stimulates the child’s creativity and imagination. In not knowing exactly what it is, the child has to come up with creative ways of using it. They learn to become problem-solvers. Benefits of a Bilibo include motor skills, sensory stimulation, role and pretend play, social competence, confidence and selfesteem. Bilibos can be used for solo play or in a group setting. There’s no right-wayup. They form tunnels for trains, cradles for dolls, spinning chairs and stepping stones. As parents we don’t like to spend too much money on toys that won’t last. The Bilibo is well-designed and tough-as-nails. It can be used indoors, in the swimming pool or in the sand pit and is practically indestructible. The Bilibo has been internationally recognised as a world-class design and has won many awards. As an Occupational Therapist it has become a stable constant in my practice, taking on many different forms and purposes throughout the day. To understand the real value of a Bilibo, leave a child alone with one… and watch! By Karen Powell, M. OccTher (Paediatrics). Bilibos are available from www.tinklepea.co.za.

Shake Things Up for Summer Maracas, a percussion instrument that originated in Latin American countries, have great potential for some fun play and learn activities. You just need to tame the tempo and be ready for some noisy time together. Maracas come in pairs and can be played with one in each hand or shared with two players who can mimic one another or share in the rhythm of a song. Maracas are all about rhythm and timing, and these two disciplines can help in all sorts of situations, as well as be part of a song or musical piece. • Listening and copying • Keeping in time • Following a rhythm or beat • Memorising a sequence
If you don’t want to buy maracas, then you can make your own. An empty bottle and some rice or stones will create the ‘shake-shake’ sound. Decorate the outside with different strips of coloured tape and away you go with some happy, hip-hoppy shaking! Wart and Fish have taken some commercial maracas and turned them into a pair of clowns with carnival faces. Give these characters a shake and march round the room to the rhythm and beat of a favourite song. That will give you a happy carnival experience as you shake in the summer season!

You Name It, They’ve Got It! You Name It started just over a year ago and offers a unique range of personalised gifts. They focus mainly on children’s products but also have items for ‘more mature’ clientele. Chantal Moreira started the business so that she could be at home with her daughter, and it is growing so much, that she now has two agents working for her. “It is such a fantastic feeling to be able to empower other women, as well as myself!” said Chantal. The product range started with a range of CDs with your child’s name inserted into every song on the CD, and animated DVDs, where your child is made the main character in the movie. “These did so well and I had so many moms asking for personalised books, that I decided to add those to my product range. We have a range of 18 books for kiddies and I also have a lovely personalised Mother’s Day book, as well as humorous books that make great gifts for Dad. Our graduation books are also a growing favourite.” You Name It has also included an educational DVD called ABC Monsters, which allows you to put your child’s face into the movie, and the CD range has expanded to include nursery rhymes, lullabies and Disney songs. They are also adding birth charts and personalised clocks to the range. If you want a personalised, unique, special gift, You Name It is the place to go.

A Stimulating Game for You and Your Baby
“The gentle approach to baby swimming“ “Opening the door of water fun and swimming excellence to everyone“
The little TOPTOTS hand sock puppet is a great tool for practicing crossing the midline with your baby. Crossing the midline is the ability for one side of the body to cross over to the other side by moving across the centre line of the body, thus the right hand can cross over the midline and pick up an object from the left side of the body.

Office Hours 9.30am - 12pm Mon - Fri
www.toptots.co.za
The ability to cross the midline begins in the first year of life when the baby rotates from a sitting to a crawling position and vice versa. Start by placing the TOPTOTS hand sock puppet on your baby’s one hand. Your baby may start off by just waving it around a bit, but it will soon catch her attention and she will start bringing it into her line of vision. With time she will then learn to bring the other hand in to meet the first. The sock puppet will irritate her little hand and she will start pulling it off with the other hand. Then switch the sock onto the other hand and soon she will have mastered it both ways. By doing this she is practicing crossing the midline, and she is slowly breaking down that imaginary line between the two halves of her body and in turn, removing the barriers that could cause her to have learning difficulties in the future. For other great ideas on how to provide age appropriate stimulation for your baby with the emphasis on fun, contact your nearest TOPTOTS branch. Your first lesson is FREE!

Snuza Portable Baby Monitors
Learn to Swim with Michelle
October is International Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Awareness Month. SIDS, otherwise known as ‘cot death’, is the leading cause of death in newborn babies, with thousands of mortalities reported each year. A global initiative led by the World Health Organisation (WHO) offers practical advice:
• Step by step water confidence • Classes are kept small for individual attention Contact: Michelle 083 709 1843 (Northdene Area)
• Always put baby to sleep on their back. • Do not overdress baby; ensure baby is not too warm. • Keep your baby’s cot free of soft fluffy blankets and toys, use a firm mattress. • Avoid bed sharing with your baby. • Don’t ever smoke around your child. What is the Snuza Hero? Snuza Portable Baby Monitors do not claim that they can prevent SIDS, but the Snuza Hero can detect the silent rise and fall of a baby’s abdomen. The Snuza Hero gives parents peace of mind by sounding an alarm when the abdominal movement associated with breathing stops. The Snuza Hero clips onto the front of baby’s nappy, and has a sensitive and flexible rubber tip that gently rests on baby’s tummy. The Hero detects the slightest abdominal movement and will sound an alarm if a baby’s abdominal movements are very weak or fall to less than eight movements per minute. If no abdominal movement is detected for 15 seconds, the Snuza Hero will vibrate to rouse the baby. If movement still does not resume after 5 seconds, an alarm sounds as a call for intervention. There are no wires, cords or cables; perfect for busy moms on the go. For more information visit www.snuza.com, Facebook: Snuza, Twitter: @SnuzaMonitors. WIN WIN WIN Mum’s Mail has 1 Snuza Hero to give away to 1 lucky reader. Visit www.mumsmail.com to enter. www.mumsmail.com

A technology that has been used and is still being used to train Astronauts to improve their concentration and ability in high stress situations is now being used in the fields of learning disabilities, behaviour problems, brain injuries and peak performance, to improve attention, processing speed, impulse responses, memory and capacity to learn. The greatest success of the system though, must be the strides made in the treatment of ADHD and ADD and other motor neuron conditions. NASA and Eastern Virginia Medical School conducted research to determine the effectiveness of this technology on ADHD, and found significant improvement on most main ADHD outcome measures.

When planning your next function, always have a colour scheme which can easily be pulled through into everything you do. Cupcakes, flowers, linen, under plates, sweet table, drinks and even your outfit can be co-ordinated to match. But be very careful not to over-match, as this could completely ruin your overall effect you are trying to achieve. To solve this problem, try playing around with different tones of the chosen colour scheme. It doesn’t all have to be the exact same Pantone colour, mix and match with darker and lighter tones and shades for a more fashionable end result. Don’t be afraid to go bold, but then always have a calmer base colour to help lift the colours more. Play around, see what you like and have fun! There is nothing better than seeing the beautiful, final, finished effect after all your hard work. Keep it POSH!

SAB 18+ Campaign Against Underage Drinking A new responsible drinking campaign aimed at discouraging underage youths from drinking alcohol has been launched by The South African Breweries (SAB). The 18+ campaign is a call to action for adults to be role models in the fight against underage drinking, which SAB believes it has a responsibility to lead. UK think tank Demos has done research which shows that parenting style is one of the most important and statistically reliable influences on whether a child will drink responsibly in adolescence and in adulthood. SAB will use the 18+ campaign to drive education amongst adults on the topic of underage drinking and its dangers and consequences. It seeks to encourage adults to take another look at some of their beliefs and practices. International research on youth binge drinking has shown that the behaviour and influence of parents can have a significant impact on underage drinking, and highlights the importance of educating parents. A key message in the campaign is that it is not okay to give teenagers a drink nor is it okay for a child under 18 to be sent to buy alcohol for an adult. Adults should not be taking children with them to a pub and it is not okay to do nothing when teenagers are seen drinking. The key message as part of the 18+ campaign is that parents must speak to our youth about alcohol before alcohol speaks to them. 18+ is calling on all adult South Africans to support the campaign and get involved in the fight against underage drinking. Pledges can be made on www.sabstories.co.za. For the latest 18+ news: www.sabstories.co.za/alcohol-issues/ sab18plus/, Twitter: @SABreweries and #SAB18Plus. www.mumsmail.com

Fun Science Secret Lab “The idea for Fun Science Secret Lab Pretty and Stylish entertainment came after 10 years’ experience of trying to organise a perfect Supplies for all Parties, party for my own daughter,” explained Events and Functions! Kateryna Koshkidko, founder of Fun Science Secret Lab. “I fully realise the terrific amount of preparation that goes on beforehand. The pressure to get it all right is immense, and quite often it does not end when the guests arrive. That is why party entertainment is so important!” The Fun Science Secret Lab team is made of mothers and enthusiastic young people who are determined to make science memorable and fun, be it at a birthday party, a school seminar, an extramural class or an entertaining event show. The extra-mural Fun Science Club that they started at Westville schools (Grade R to Grade 5) has proven to be successful and beneficial, for both little learners and their parents, as seemingly complicated concepts like acids and bases, state of matter, density, surface tension and others are covered in an easy-to-understand and exciting way of experimenting. Experimenting with Secret Lab at birthday parties is extremely popular. The birthday programmes include ‘Travelling Around the World’, ‘Detective Science Party’, ‘Little Scientist’ and ‘Science in Teams’. Having a ‘Halloween Party’ at the Secret Lab means having ghosts to tea… Ghosts who are prepared to trick if not treated well! Corporate science shows for events like Easter, Christmas and Halloween are gaining popularity.

Start Your Engines – the Durban Motor Show Does It Better this November
From 7 to 9 November the Durban Motor Show rolls in to the Durban Exhibition Centre. This year, the expo will pay tribute to its roots, with an epic showdown between old school beauties and new school hightech. Boasting one of the largest selections of dealerships, brand models and makes, under one roof, KZN’s proudly South African expo is sure to thrill. If that’s not impressive enough, the aftermarket exhibitors will be. From spray paint products to custom rims and competition winning sound systems, you’ll find it all, and more, at the Durban Motor Show. Motor-mad visitors will want to get to the Redline Village for an adrenalin fix. Every day, this arena will be crammed full of fresh activities, handpicked for their ability to blast wind through your hair. The annual Show ‘n Shine competition also returns, bigger and better. South Africa has played host to a number of international motoring shows, but Durban does it better, and has for over 20 years. Tickets go on sale in October through Computicket and cost R100 for adults, R65 for pensioners and children under 12 get in for free.
