Robertson kry sakekamerDALEEN FOUCHÉ

ROBERTSON se sakeluihetnou’nnuweforumomtenetwerkensakeproble-

me aan te pak nadat die Robert-son Sakekamer op Donderdag-aand 20 September amptelik ge-stig is.

Die stigtingsvergadering, watby die Wynlosie op die Robert-son-skouterreingehouis, isgoedbygewoon deur verskeie sakeluivan die dorp.

Piet Badenhorst, verteen-woordiger van die AHI, voor-heen bekend as die AfrikaanseHandelsinstituut, was die spre-ker van die aand en het die rol

vandieAHI byplaaslike sakeka-mers bespreek.

Hy sê die aanvraag na sakeka-mers op die platteland raak gro-ter by die dag en hy het van velesuksesverhale op ander dorpevertel.

Badenhorst sê die AHI het ’nbelangrike rol te speel om kom-munikasie tussen plaaslike sa-kemense en die provinsiale enplaaslike regering te fasiliteer.

Verder het Badenhorst dieAHI as ’nwelvaartskeppende or-ganisasie beskryf wat ook sake-kamers help met opleiding enprojekte.

Verskeie vrae is tydens dievergadering gestel. ’n Lid van

die vergadering, wat voorheenby die Langeberg Sakekamer be-trokke was, het gevra waaromdit belangrik vir elke dorp is omsy eie sakekamer te hê. Baden-horst het geantwoord dat elkedorp sy eie unieke probleme hetwat plaaslik aangespreek moetword. Verder is daar kommeruitgespreek oor of die AHI se be-trokkenheid inklusiwiteit salbelemmer.

Badenhorst het egter die ver-gadering verseker dat die AHIinklusiwiteit en diversiteit asvan groot belang ag om ’n sake-kamer ’n sukses te maak.

Meer as 51 sakemense van Ro-bertsonhetmetdievorigeverga-

TB trial almost completeDALEEN FOUCHÉ

A medical trail to test anew possible vaccine fortuberculosis (TB) con-

cluded on Thursday 20 Septem-ber with members of the SouthAfrican TB Vaccine Initiative(SATVI) doing their final follow-up tests in Robertson.

The trial, which started in Ju-ly2009,wasconductedacross theEast Winelands District’s mu-nicipal area, including theLangeberg, Worcester andCeres. In the Langeberg, 606 ba-bies tookpart in the trialsamonga total of 2 797 overall.

Dr Michele Tameris, studymanager, says the results of thetrial to determine if the vaccineis successful will only be knownin mid-January 2013, after thedata has been processed.Tameris says the trail was con-

ducted in eastern parts of theWinelands District Municipalarea, because traditionally thearea has a high number of TB in-fections and a comparativelylow HIV infection rate. In theeast of the Winelands DistrictMunicipality, 1 400 people out of100 000 were diagnosed with TB.TheSouthAfricanaverage is 986people out of 100 000 diagnosedwith TB.

Tameris explains that there iscurrently only one TB vaccinebeing used, which was re-gistered in 1920. No new vaccinehas entered the market sincethen.Shesaysthereisarealneedfor a vaccine to be used in con-junction with the existing vac-cine to ensure a zero infectionrate.

The research is being conduc-ted by SATVI, in conjunctionwith the Stellenbosch Universi-

ty andOxfordUniversity, whichis funding the study. Tamerissays if the trials prove success-ful, the study will continue on alarger scale.

“The study has been a majorpart of my life,” Tameris says.She is carefully optimistic abouttheresultsbutsaysthereisapos-sibility that the vaccine willprove unsuccessful, but addsthat even if the results are notgood, the learning curve willhave made the study worth it.

Tameris says this trial wouldnot have been possible withoutthe support of the community.Babieswhowereenrolled in2009are now “running around”.

According to Tameris, thewhole trial was conducted with-in the strict ethical code ofmedi-cal trials. For more informationon SATVI and the trial, visitwww.satvi.uct.ac.za.

I am amember of SANCOand the com-munity of Zolani. SANCO is not a politi-cal organisation but a civic body, as thename implies.

I am a volunteer in the organisationand receive no income.

We are not involved in political activi-ties but aim to ensure that service deli-very to our community takes place

An ode to a girl’s best friendSHE has thick black hair, brown eyesthat will make your heart melt and along clumsy tail which can sweepwineglasses off coffee tables when she can-not contain her excitement.

HernameisShantiandsheismybestfriend. She is a second generation mixbetween a labrador and a border collieandwas given tomewhen shewas stilla pup. She almost fitted in my hand.

Today sheboastswitha sturdybuild,a glorious thick pelt and a deep barkthat will make her enemies turn to thehills and run.

Her favourite pastime is huntingbugs in the long grass of our yard. Shealsolikeslongwalksandsleepinginthelate afternoon sun. And she enjoysherding me around the house

She does not ask for much: a mealtwice a day, enough drinking waterand love. In return she gives loyalty,friendshipandhoursof entertainment.

She is always elated to see me and

doesnot judgemewhenI spendaSatur-day in pyjamas.

She gives companionship withoutquestion and her favourite possessionis a stick. Her life is simple, but filledwith the small joys in life and she hastaught me to appreciate these simplejoys.

She protects me against unknownsounds in the night and welcomes myfriends with the same enthusiasm asshe welcomes me with.

On days, when the world seems hos-tile,dangerousandlonely,youwill find

Shanti bymyside,withherheadonmylap.

And in animal shelters across thecountry are many others like her.

They come in all shapes and sizesand are patiently waiting for their fu-ture best friend to come and pick themup.

If everyone had a friend like Shanti,the world would be a happier place.

Heritage Day, atime for reflectionHeritage Day, also fondly referred to asNational Braai Day, was celebrated yes-terday (Monday) across South Africa.Many people celebrated with an old fash-ioned braai shared with close friends andfamily.

In Montagu, Heritage Day turned intoa weekend affair with a parade, potjiekosand other fun-filled and truly South Afri-can activities.

But Heritage Day is not just about fami-ly fun and boerewors. It is a day on whichto reflect where we come from and wherewe are heading to. It gives South Africanstime to pause for a while and reflect.

Butheritageisasomewhatabstractcon-cept to understand. According to Wikipe-dia,heritage is“the legacyofphysicalarti-facts (culturalproperty)and intangibleat-tributes of a group or society that areinherited from past generations, main-tained in the present and bestowed for thebenefit of future generations.”

In the Langeberg we are fortunate tohave cultural property like architecture,museums, rock art, songs, stories andmany more.

Butperhaps it is timetoconsiderwheth-er these cultural properties are being pro-tected for future generations.

South Africa’s history has many lessonto teach future generations.

It is up to the present generation to be-come custodians of heritage for futuregenerations to know where they comefrom and where they are headed to.

Sy verduidelik dat daar geen kostesaan verbonde is nie, gesondheidsvoorde-le inhou en slegs 20 – 30 minute van dieskenker se tyd in beslagneem. Sybeaam:“Jy kan verseker wees dat jy ’n impakin minstens drie pasiënte se lewens salmaak, deur slegs een eenheid bloed van475ml te skenk.” Persone wat kan skenk,moet skenk as ’n saak van prioriteit.

Persone ouer as 16 jaar, wat meer as50kgweegen ’ngesonde, veilige leefwysehandhaaf, kan bloed skenk.

The changingface of BramCare Centre

BRAM CARE CENTRE in Ashton,which is now 13 years old, is progres-sively changing.Initially it had eight beds and very

little else. It nowhas 16 beds and a fullyequipped kitchen and laundry. It star-ted as a place where impoverishedAIDS sufferers could die with dignity.Medical advances mean that AIDS cannow be controlled and people can go onto live a productive life formanyyears.Many are still referred by clinics andhospitals to the Bram Care Centre tobe started on the treatment regime toenable them to carry on with theirlives.According to the centre, the disease

burden of the geographical area haschanged andhelp for chronically ill pa-tients is becoming amajor problem forthe Langeberg district.Pam Verrall, administrator of the

centre, says these patients need careprior to being sent home to be cared forby family and assisted by the home-based care organisations. Verrall sayshospitals cannot provide this care be-yond the initial stages where the pa-tient is seriously ill.“Hospitals then refer the patient to

Bram Care Centre for a further periodof time, during which patients learnhow to help themselves and their fami-lies learn how to help the patients. Themajority of the chronically ill patientsare elderly.”Another category of patient is the

sub-acute. Verrall says in these casesthepatientshavehadmajorhospital in-terventionand treatment. Sheexplainsthat the patients cannot be kept in hos-pital because beds are needed for otheracute patients – even though they arenot really fit to go home yetAgain, they are referred to Bram

Care Centre by the discharging hospi-tal andare cared for in theassistedcareof a home-based organisation.Verral says the varying patient load

pattern has necessitated operationalchanges.Onlyabout20%ofpatientsarestill palliative andwill pass away. “Thesub-acute patient usually needs moreto eat than the palliative patient; thisalso often applies to the chronic pa-tient. Due to them being more active,the laundry requirements are also in-creased. Bram Care Centre staff arecoping well with this learning curve,but it does bring problems.”Bram Care Centre has, since its in-

ception, worked in close cooperationwith local doctors, clinics, hospitalsand the home-based care organisa-tions.For further information on theBram

Care Centre, phone Pam Verrall, ad-ministrator of the centre, on0 072 426 9817 or e-mail her at sheeps-tor@telkomsa.net.
