SHE’S unable to curl the corners of her mouth into a smile and can’t chew properly because she has no teeth in her bottom jaw. Yet 16-year-old Megan Krüger is determined to live her life to the fullest – she loves athletics and dancing, and she’s even had a small part in a film. Megan was just a toddler when she was mauled by a tiger while she and her parents were visiting a nature reserve in the Free State. Incredibly, she survived the horrific attack, but the animal damaged most of her face and she spent months in hospital undergoing multiple reconstructive surgeries. “What I look like doesn’t bother me at all,” Megan tells YOU. “I’ve looked like this my whole life. I’ve accepted it long ago and I…

When we got married, I vowed to myself and God I would be a faithful and caring husband and I’ve kept this vow.

We have a housekeeper and I do the cooking at night when I get home from work. I also do most of the caregiving for our son, getting him up in the…

UNREST IN IRAN SPREADS Woman’s death sparks global protests I RAN has been rocked by nationwide protests following the death of a 22-year-old Kurdish woman who was allegedly tortured and killed by police for failing to adhere to rules on wearing a traditional hijab. The protests spilled over to London and Canada as women there burnt their headscarves and cut their ponytails in protest of the Iranian government’s restrictions. It all started when Mahsa Amini was approached by the morality police while she was vacationing in Tehran. The young woman was arrested for allegedly violating the country’s strictly enforced dress code, which requires women to cover their hair with a hijab, or headscarf, and their arms and legs with loose clothing. She died three days later after falling into a…

IT WAS a double delight when they discovered they were expecting. For six long years, the sisters had tried everything to fall pregnant. Then, at last, the happy tiding: one was expecting triplets, the other quadruplets. Merelda Verster and Merwede van Tonder had always dreamt of raising their kids at the same time and were overjoyed. But the path to parenthood would end in tragedy for one of the sisters. Merelda and her husband, Johandré, were expecting quadruplets when she went into early labour. Their babies – Miné, Zian, Hanke and Luka – were born prematurely at just 22 weeks. Three of the children were too tiny to make it and died hours after they were born. Miné held on for a few days before she too passed away. Merwede’s…

BACKACHE, sore shoulders, tight neck muscles – if you sit in front of a computer all day, you’ve probably had to deal with one of these problems at some stage. The health issues that can be caused by sitting all day extend beyond just sore muscles and joints. It also raises your risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and stroke. Those who sit in front of a computer for work usually don’t have a choice in the matter. So how do you counteract the hunched-over-my-keyboard pose? There’s only one way – you have to be proactive about moving your body. And daily stretching is a great way to do it. “Movement is medicine,” says Dr Marni Kruger of the Chiropractic Association of South Africa, adding that stretching is…

A POCKETFUL OF HAPPINESS By RICHARD E GRANT Simon & Schuster As Grant’s wife, Joan Washington, lay dying of cancer in 2021 she had one last piece of advice for him. “You’re going be all all right,” she said. “Try to find a pocketful of happiness in every single day.” In this book Grant tells his life story through the prism of their marriage.

MAKEOVER TIPS To warm up the wood of the vanity and shelf, the walls were given a lift with textured, removable wallpaper. The wallpaper’s delicate pattern gives the bathroom an airy feeling and is the perfect backdrop for a bathroom refresh. The windows were treated to a change of blinds (from brown to white) for a lighter, more modern look. Organic shapes and textures help create a relaxed atmosphere. A new round mirror in a wood finish echoes the wood texture already in the bathroom and adds warmth. Baskets are great as storage for towels and extra bits. A textured, patterned rug and indoor plants add warmth and interest. Open shelving is a great way to hold essentials and décor. Blues and greens are typically cool but can be warmed…

SAVING and investing are crucial elements in keeping your finances fit and healthy. But though both terms refer to setting money aside, they don’t mean the same thing. Here are four scenarios to show when you should save and when it’s better to invest. UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE It’s important to understand the difference between saving and investing. It’s quite simple as it mostly depends on one factor: the amount of time the money is to be put away for. Savings plans are usually low-risk, which means you can’t easily lose the money. But because the risk is low, the interest you earn is also typically…
