Lets do breast education

KNOW YOUR LEMONS!
Ladies, do you know the 12 breast changes you should never ignore?

From lumps and dimpling to ni**le changes and unusual discharge, knowing your breasts could help you recognise warning signs early.

Not every change means cancer, but please get unusual changes checked by a health professional.

Share this post to remind another woman to prioritise her breast health!

SOME OF YOU, YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE IS AFRAID OF THE HOSPITAL!
At home ,BP is 120/80 mmHg

You are laughing, eating, watching TV and disturbing everybody.

The moment you enter the hospital and see the nurse holding the BP machine…
Nurse: “Relax, please.”
You: “Madam, I am relaxed ooo!”

The machine: 160/100 mmHg
Nurse: “Ei! Your BP is high!”
You: “Sister, please check again. Maybe the machine is not feeling well today!”
You get home, check again…
120/80 mmHg!

My people, some of you have what we call WHITE-COAT HYPERTENSION that is when blood pressure is high in a healthcare setting but normal outside it, sometimes because of anxiety or stress.

But please, don't use the normal reading at home to conclude that everything is fine.

Your healthcare provider may recommend home monitoring or a 24-hour blood pressure monitor to confirm what is happening.

Now be honest,
Are you among those whose BP rises the moment they see a nurse, doctor or hospital bed?
Tell us your experience in the comments!

Tag that friend whose BP only behaves badly at the hospital!

What makes someone wait until it’s almost too late before seeking medical care?

Let’s talk about the barriers that keep people from seeking help early.
What do you think is the biggest one?

Happy new month, my dear family!

Welcome to a month that reminds us to pay closer attention to breast health.

As you step into this new month, my prayer is that you will experience good health, peace, protection and countless reasons to smile.

This October, don't wait until you feel sick before you care for your breasts.

Have you had your breast examined yet?

Building safe communities for teenagers isn't only a parent's responsibility.

It takes parents, teachers, health workers, faith leaders, community leaders and all of us.

Watch this video and let's talk about what it really means to create safe people, safe spaces and safe communities for young people.

What can we do differently?

Kindly read this, you will glad you did.

Esi is 15years old.
At home, her mother always tells her:
‘You can talk to me about anything.’
And Esi knows her mother loves her.

But one evening, something happens.
A boy at school has been sending her uncomfortable messages.
He tells her not to tell anyone.
Esi becomes frightened.
She picks up her phone.
She wants help.
But then she stops.
She thinks:
‘What if Mum gets angry?’
‘What if people blame me?’
‘What if everyone at school finds out?’
So she puts her phone down.
And says nothing.

Now imagine if Esi lived in a community where she knew there were safe adults beyond her home.
A teacher who would listen without humiliating her.
A school counsellor who knew how to respond appropriately.
A health worker she could approach for help.
A youth leader who understood how to support young people.
A faith leader who would guide her without shaming her.
A parent who had built a relationship where difficult conversations were possible.
Suddenly, Esi doesn't have to carry everything alone.

This is what a community feels like.

A safe community isn't simply a place where bad things never happen.
It is a place where young people know what to do and where to go when something does happen.

It is a community where adults listen.
Where teenagers can ask questions without immediately being mocked.
Where boys and girls are taught to respect one another.
Where harmful gender stereotypes are challenged instead of passed from one generation to another.
Where adults don't wait until a young person is in crisis before they start paying attention.

Everyone has a role.
Parents provide love, guidance and a safe foundation.
Teachers create supportive spaces at school.
Health workers provide accurate information and appropriate support.
Faith leaders can use their influence to promote dignity, respect and compassion.
Traditional and community leaders can help create safer environments.
Youth leaders can make sure young people's voices are heard.
And teenagers themselves should be given opportunities to participate in conversations about the communities they live in.
Because young people are not just people we protect.
They are people whose voices matter.

So when we talk about protecting teenagers, let's not only ask:
‘What are parents doing?’
Let's ask:
‘What are we doing?’
Because a teenager should not have to be lucky to find one safe adult.
There should be safe people, safe spaces and safe systems around them.
And that doesn't happen by accident.
We build it together.

So think about one teenager in your life.
If something went wrong…
Would they know who to call?
And more importantly…
Would they feel safe calling you?

If your answer is ‘I'm not sure,’ maybe that's where we need to start.
Let's become the community that young people can trust.
Because every teenager deserves somewhere safe to turn.

Let's educate. Let's empower. Let's advocate.

Let me know what will you do differently so teenagers in your life will feel safe to talk with you?

Would You Step In?

“It’s none of my business.”
Someone else will help.
I don’t know what to do.

When we witness bullying, harassment or other forms of harm, it can be difficult to know how to respond. But a small, safe action can make a difference.

You don’t have to fight anyone or put yourself in danger. You can:

-Create a distraction.
- Help the person reach someone they trust.
- Get support from a trusted adult or someone who can help.
- Check on them afterwards: “Are you okay? How can I support you?”

Your safety comes first. If there’s a weapon, the situation is escalating, or intervening feels unsafe, get help instead of confronting the person.

Swipe through for ways to respond safely.

What is one safe thing a bystander can do? Tell us in the comments without sharing anyone’s name or private experience.

Did you know pregnancy, labour and postpartum changes more than just your uterus?

Your heart, lungs, kidneys, brain, blood and other organs all adapt to support you and your growing baby.

Pregnancy, Labour and Postpartum Is a Whole-Body Experience.

Let me hear from you, how was your time of pregnancy, labour or postpartum?

If something went wrong tonight, who would your teenager call?

Who can adolescents trust?

Safety isn’t only about teaching young people what to do. It’s also about helping them know who they can safely turn to.

A trusted adult can make all the difference.

Build the trust circle before there is a crisis.

Watch, save & share with a parent, teacher or caregiver.
