National Kidney Awareness Week is a good opportunity to think about the two hardworking organs that often go unnoticed. Your kidneys are constantly busy filtering waste from your blood, balancing fluids and minerals, and helping regulate your blood pressure. Because kidney problems can develop quietly, sometimes without noticeable symptoms, taking care of your kidney health before issues appear is important.

The good news is that a few simple lifestyle habits can go a long way. Drinking enough water, eating a balanced diet, staying active, maintaining a healthy weight, and keeping conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes under control can all help support your kidneys. It’s also worth being mindful of medication use, particularly painkillers, and always following the recommended dosage.

Regular check-ups can help spot potential kidney problems early, especially if you have risk factors. If you notice unusual changes in your health or are concerned about your kidneys, speak to your healthcare provider.

National Kidney Awareness Week reminds us that looking after our health doesn’t have to be complicated. Small, healthy choices made consistently can help protect your kidneys and support your overall well-being for years to come.

Finding Strength Through Support During a Breast Cancer Journey

A Real Survivor Story In this heartfelt testimonial, Susan du Plessis shares her experience of being diagnosed with breast cancer at 67 and the journey that followed. What began as a concern she noticed during a family holiday became a life-changing diagnosis that she faced with courage, faith, and determination. In this inspiring conversation, Susan reflects on the importance of acting quickly when something doesn't feel right, the comfort of having a compassionate medical team, and how emotional and practical support can make a difficult journey feel less overwhelming.

Her story highlights the value of early detection, staying positive, and having people who stand by your side when you need them most.

"The big thing is the peace of mind it gave me. That calmness of knowing: 'Wow, I've got this' – it's wonderful." – Susan du Plessis

Interviewer: Leandi Scoonees (Client Care Expert)

"Platinum Life was incredibly kind, understanding and compassionate throughout my claim. They guided me through the process with patience and care, and shortly after my surgery, my claim was paid without hassle. Their support gave me peace of mind during a very difficult and uncertain time.”

"I submitted a claim to Platinum Life, and the whole process was quick and easy. Although my medical aid covered a lot, I still had to pay about R36,000 out of pocket. The payout allowed us to pay off two student loans and other debts, and now we can smile again each month thanks to reduced expenses."
- Hannetjie, 52 (Breast cancer)

Organ donation offers hope and a second chance at life.

In South Africa, approximately 4,700 adults and children are waiting for life-saving transplants. For people living with severe kidney, liver, heart or lung conditions, a transplant may be their only option.

Both deceased and living donors can make an extraordinary difference. One deceased organ donor can save up to eight lives, while tissue donation can improve the lives of many more. Living donors may also be able to donate a kidney or part of their liver following a thorough medical evaluation.

Registering as an organ donor is simple, but it is equally important to discuss your decision with your family.

Register through the Organ Donor Foundation at https://odf.org.za/ or call the toll-free line on 0800 226 611.

Your decision today could give someone hope for tomorrow.

August is a special month in South Africa as we celebrate women’s month and recognise the strength, resilience, and contributions of women. It is also a good opportunity to talk about something that is sometimes overlooked, women’s mental health. Between work, family responsibilities, relationships, finances, caregiving, and everyday pressures, women can often find themselves putting everyone else first while their own well-being takes a back seat.

Looking after your mental health is just as important as looking after your physical health. Stress, anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, low mood, or simply feeling that you’re struggling to cope are signs that it may be time to slow down and check in with yourself. Simple habits such as getting enough sleep, staying active, spending time with people who support you, setting healthy boundaries, and making time for activities you enjoy can all contribute to better emotional well-being.

Most importantly, asking for help is not a sign of weakness. Speaking to a trusted friend, family member, counsellor, psychologist, or healthcare professional can make it easier to work through difficult emotions and challenges. This women’s month, let’s celebrate women not only for everything they do for others, but also by encouraging them to take care of themselves. Your mental health matters, your feelings matter, and making time for your own well-being is something worth prioritising.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide, with nearly one in eight women developing some form of the disease during their lifetime. For women who are breastfeeding or pumping, this period often makes them more aware of breast health due to the rapid and noticeable changes that occur in the body during lactation.
