CALLOUS

Janine Meiring  rushes to hospital on Christmas day, feeling that something is not well with her unborn baby. She is referred to another facility  because of known complications with previous pregnancies and births.
What is wrong with this scenario? Should a large facility like Pretoria West Hospital not be qualified for this type of emergency - gosh, Obstetrics!
At the second facility, Kalafong Hospital, she has to undergo a sonar. The medical person- I find it difficult to call him Doctor as this title is normally reserved for someone that values human life and has compassion for those in pain, ignores all the signs of  a woman that is already progressed far into labor.
 He virtually forces her to get up after the sonar test, he then prevents her from sitting or lying down on the floor, subsequently instructs her not to attempt to cup  her hand(s) between her legs Why? (This action is an instinctive attempt to prevent the baby from falling) even I am aware of this…

Distracted Driving
AASA sent out a newsletter regarding this topic yesterday (12/05/2016). I believe that those who subscribe to this publication are already concerned about the death rate on our roads and should not be the target audience.
We have a well-developed broadcasting system that could – and should be utilised to graphically bring this message to the attention of as many citizens as possible.
I have on many occasions experienced the result of the distractions caused by texting, applying make-up and general inattention of fellow drivers. People seem to forget that they are often travelling at 120 Km per hour or 33 meters per second or more. 
It simply means that if you look down for 1 second, you will be 33 meters further along when you look up again. 
To text one word or read one sentence will often take in excess of 5 seconds. 
That will place you 150 meters or the length of one and a half football fields further down the road. Should someone in front of you apply brakes it …
