SGOFOTI--Support Group Of The Families Of Terminally Ill

A third branch of SGOFOTI has started in Emakandeni in the Western suburbs. The other branches are in Mpopoma and Pelindaba.Ours is a volunteer,non governmental,support group offering psychological and emotional support to those who have lost loved ones.Our focus is on the AFFECTED(and we are all affected whether it is our relative,our friend,our neighbour.our employee and perhaps even our employer) in the devastating Aids pandemic.

We also run an occupational therapy group within which the women who are our clients, knit and sew using wool and material that has been donated.Many of these women are grannies with extra dependants and no breadwinner.They try to earn some money by selling what they have made.

The third aspect of SGOFOTI focuses on the orphans who are among the most affected by this terrible scourge.One of our counsellors,Patricia Tshabalala,took the initiative to start an orphan offshoot of SGOFOTI called VULINDLELA guardians where vulnerable children are entertained,taught skils and made to feel wanted.

NATIONAL TASK FORCE FOR AVIAN INFLUENZA December 2005
What you need to know about avian influenza Avian influenza or bird flu is a disease of the influenza type A virus group that infects birds. The disease has many different forms depending on the avian influenza virus type, ranging from a very mild disease to a highly pathogenic and contagious one that has the capacity to kill large numbers of poultry in a short period of time. The disease may infect human beings and spread from person to person, but only after the virus has mutated or transformed to a virus type adapted to people. It is therefore important for people to wash with disinfectants after contact with poultry, particularly dead birds. The virus is killed by cooking and use of disinfectants such as dettol and also chlorine. The recent outbreaks in South East Asia and Europe have all been caused by H5N1 virus types which has killed several hundred million poultry.
In 2004 up to September 2005 South Africa experienced an outbreak of avian influenza of H5N2 virus type in farmed ostrich in the eastern and western Cape Province. This H5N2 virus type only affected ostrich and did not spread to chickens even when chickens were in close contact with infected ostrich flocks. The H5N2 virus generally caused only a mild disease in some ostrich, while in the majority of ostrich, no signs of disease were observed. In November 2005 Zimbabwe confirmed the presence of H5N2 antibodies in ostrich on two farms in Matebeleland North Province. No clinical signs have been observed in ostrich or chickens and all chickens tested to date have been negative for the disease. Awareness and Surveillance Campaign There is need for all Zimbabweans to join in the national avian influenza awareness and surveillance campaign, especially for the possible occurrence of the highly pathogenic H5N1 types of virus that is occurring in Europe and South East Asia. This type of virus is causing sudden death in large numbers of chickens.
The most likely entry point for the European/Asian types of virus (H5N1) is through migratory birds, especially water birds such as ducks and geese. Therefore special surveillance is required for wetlands and surrounding areas where there is increased possibility of contact between migratory water birds and domestic poultry. However, other poultry and wild birds are also susceptible to the disease and any abnormal deaths in birds should be reported to the nearest veterinary office.
Note should be made in observing and recording the location of the dead birds, the species involved and their approximate numbers. When large numbers of birds are found dead, individual samples of dead birds can best be submitted to the veterinary laboratory in a sealed plastic packet. Direct contact with dead birds should be avoided to prevent possible infection and spread of the disease, and individual dead birds should be placed in the packet by means of a stick. The National Task Force for Avian Influenza would like to thank everyone for joining in this nationwide surveillance and awareness campaign for avian influenza.

ADOPTION REUNIONS

Having grown up in Zimbabwe as an adopted child, I had many fruitless meetings with social welfare with regards to finding out who my birth parents are. I now live in the UK and had never thought about the internet until September last year when I searched for reunion sites.

Using the site

The site is www.angelway.info
I found my parents !!
Words cannot explain what the whole experience has been like for me and them , and meeting all the relatives who I look like etc. and how much I am like my father has been quite scary for both my adoptive (who also have met them) family and biological family. Anyway I wont bore you too much with the details but if you could please mention the site on your site for those who are involved in the adoption triad, as it is a fast growing site - and giving people the same opportunity I have had will be great.

Many thanks and best wishes

A WONDERFUL NEW BOOK

SERETSE AND RUTH BY WILF AND TISH MBANGA

Working title: Black Knight, White Queen How Botswana changed the world

SYNOPSIS
This is a true story 'the story of a love that crossed the barriers of distance, race, creed, and culture; a love that triumphed over injustice, treachery, exile, illness, loneliness and rejection; a love tested in the fires of adversity, and proved to be true and enduring as few loves of the hasty and selfish 20th Century have been. It all began when a young African prince from the vast and thirsty plains of Bechuanaland was sent to England by his royal uncles in search of education, and fell in love with an English rose. Together they transformed his country from a poverty-stricken tribal society into the modern nation of Botswana - an oasis of sanity in a region of racial hatred.

Dear All,
Please may I take this opportunity in thanking everyone of you who was with us in thoughts and prayers over our kidney transplant operation. A miracle has been performed mainly by my husband giving me a kidney and giving me a second chance at life, secondly by fantastic medical staff and facilities at Milpark Hospital in Johburg and thirdly by all your support and prayers answered. The transplant team informed us that it has been one of the most successful spouse transplants that they have ever performed and after 5 weeks from the op we are both strong and happy and in our element being reunited with our family and friends and to be back on the farm. Words cannot express our grateful thanks to you all - I just wish we could thank each of you in person.
Regards
Gof and Shirley Carbutt
