After years of tests and doctor appointments, Birdie Rose finally received answers about her fragile skin condition.

At just seven years old, Birdie was diagnosed with progeria, a rare disease that causes premature ageing and affects the entire body. Finding the right diagnosis and treatment changed more than her healthcare journey.

It helped her gain the confidence and ability to play and live more comfortably – something all children should have.

Her foster mother, Leanne Rands, shares their journey to finding treatment and the care they received at Life The Crompton Hospital in Durban.

Heart health can affect anyone. The youngest person to receive heart surgery was only a minute old. Men older than 45 and women post menopause have the highest risk of a heart event. A family history of heart disease is a risk factor that you cannot directly control but that you should be aware of.

Prioritise your heart health today to ensure a stronger, healthier tomorrow.

Preparing for a demanding fitness sports event like Hyrox requires a focus on training, prioritising sleep for recovery and maintaining a proper nutritional plan to perform at your best. Hyrox combines strength and endurance, but intensive repetitive movements can lead to injuries if muscles become overloaded too quickly. It is essential for your body to build strength progressively and allow sufficient recovery for best performance and injury prevention.

Swipe to learn about common Hyrox injuries, prevention strategies and recovery insights from Kyla Steenveld, physiotherapist at Life Sports Science Orthopaedic Surgical Day Centre.

Not sure where to start if you're concerned about your child's development?

Children may need different types of support at different stages of development. Hear directly from occupational, speech and play therapists as they explain their roles and how they may support children in different ways.

If you have any concerns about your child’s development, a GP or paediatrician can help assess your child and guide the most appropriate support pathway.

Download our infographic for a simple guide to three different therapies and how they may support your child’s development.

When admitted to hospital, you should bring all your chronic medication from home in its original containers/packaging. This should be handed to the nursing staff on admission. It is also advisable to bring a written list of your medications, their dosages, and when you take them for effective treatment.

While in hospital your chronic medication will be reviewed by your doctor and where appropriate, administered to you during your stay. Your doctor may also advise you to stop taking certain medications, like blood thinners, before admission, especially if you are scheduled for surgery. Any remaining medication will be returned to you on discharge.
