Gebreekte vlerke kan weer vlieg
RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - Ons lewe in ‘n tyd en ‘n land waar gesinsgeweld bykans aan die orde van die dag is - egter, laat dié tipe trauma lewenslange letsels wat sommiges “laat gaan lê in ‘n hopelose hopie” of ander laat “baklei soos ‘n pit bull.”
Hierdie is aldus Petro Kotze-Odendaal, wat onlangs haar eerste boek die lig laat sien het - “Wanneer die krieke stil word”. Petro, wat aan die hand van ‘n alkoholis-pa grootgeword het en toe ook ‘n huwelik vasgevang was met fisiese geweld en verbale misbruik, sê sy val in die tweede kategorie en is ‘n lewende bewys dat traumaleiers wel, deur “harde baklei”, tóg bo kan uitkom.

Uitnodiging - diensplig-veterane geselligheid
RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - Oud-soldate (militêre veterane) is 'n groep van die samelewing wat maklik vergete of agterweë gelaat kan word.
Nasionale Diensplig-Veterane (NDP) in Suid-Afrika het dit nog swaarder, aangesien hulle in 'n weermag gedien het wat se politieke aannslag direk in teenstand is met die huidige regering. Hulle word dus gemarginaliseer en word veral finansieel uitgedaag omdat baie veterane van 'n Sassa-pensioen afhanklik is en sukkel om kop bo water te hou.
