As we head to World Alzheimer's Day on 21 September 2024, Ntokozo Nkosi who is the Deputy Director Services to Older Persons at the Department of Social Development in KwaZulu Natal, shares insights on The Emotional Effects of Abuse on the Elderly
This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation. Part 1 which focused on The Current Status on Elderly Abuse is also available on the channel.
Alzheimer's in the Elderly
Alzheimer's is the most common cause of dementia and usually affects people over the age of 65. Because of their memory impairment and inability to communicate, patients with Alzheimer's are especially vulnerable to abuse. Aggressors may also target these patients because they are more easily confused, and so may not even realize that they are being ridiculed or abused.
Remember in South Africa, elder abuse is a crime.

“The Hawks are South Africa’s elite crime-fighting force who have put some of our worst criminals behind bars. Investigative journalist, Graham Coetzer, gives us a rare glimpse into this world. Each chapter looks at a different case and explores what happened – and for once, it’s good news! This is a celebration of the Hawks’ most impressive successes.
From busting the crooks behind the biggest cash heist in South African history to ending the reign of terror by a zama zama kingpin who hijacked a whole mine. Among their chilling investigations recounted here is the hunt for ruthless human traffickers and a cross-country race to apprehend a serial killer. This is an ode to the hard work and dedication of the best of our police service.
Devi Sankaree Govender said of Hunting with the Hawks – “Rare insight into the committed minds of the many who are holding up our criminal justice system, proving that all is not lost.”
Graham Coetzer is an award-winning South African investigative journalist and television producer. His work has taken him on many adventures across Africa. He won the National Press Club Journalist of the Year Award and was shortlisted for the prestigious Taco Kuiper Award, as well as the Global Shining Light Award. He lives in Pretoria.”

Dr Nechama Brodie is a guest on this episode of the podcast with Nongcebo Vukile McKenzie , talking about her latest book 'Domestic Terror: Intimate partner violence in South Africa'.
'Domestic Terror is a powerful book that sheds light on the plight of women who face domestic violence and the harsh realities they encounter when trying to protect themselves. In South Africa, intimate partner violence is the leading cause of
female homicide and often, the warning signs are ignored. The book delves into the stories of women who took matters into their own hands, refusing to wait until they were attacked to defend themselves. Despite being driven to extreme measures, these women are met with a lack of empathy and understanding from the very institutions that are supposed to protect them. Through poignant case studies, the author exposes the limitations of our systems and challenges us to rethink our approach to domestic violence.' SOURCE: Exclusive Books

The guest on this episode of The Podcast with Nongcebo Vukile McKenzie is Moshitadi Lehlomela. She is the author of The Girl Who Survived Her Mother: Navigating and Healing the Mother Wound.
"There is a lot of talk in society about bad fathers. Fathers being neglectful or abusive or abandoning their families. Much less is spoken about mothers. There is a shroud of secrecy around mothers' parental failures and targeted abuse of their children. It is taboo to question a mother's love. Nonetheless, the mother wound has become a buzz phrase amongst millennials grappling with what to say on Mothers' Day on social media or how not to feel jealous of the nurture others enjoy from their mothers.
Moshitadi is a mother wound recovery coach. In The Girl Who Survived Her Mother, she details the years of her torturous relationship with her mother, maps the intergenerational nature of the trauma in her family, and reveals how she was finally able to begin her journey of healing. Today she helps clients around the world face their most shameful question -- how do I love myself when the person who carried me and gave birth to me cannot?" Source: NB Publishers
