WEEKEND BREAKFAST WITH KGOMOTSO 19 May 2013 9:40 AM
One-On-One with Sean Davison
South Africa’s laws currently prohibit assisted dying. It is DignitySA’s belief that it is a ‘Basic Human Right to Die with Dignity’, and that those afflicted with a terminal illness should be allowed the option to end his or her life with assistance in order to preserve personal privacy and dignity as well as alleviate suffering. DignitySA believes that assisted dying should be legalised. DignitySA was launched on 25th September, 2011 in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Sean Davison wrote his memoirs in the book Before We Say Goodbye published in 2009, documenting the final days of his mother’s life. His mother was a highly respected and popular medical doctor. Following a long battle with cancer she chose to end her life by going on a hunger strike but though she got weaker and weaker death eluded her. She then sought and got the assistance she needed to pass into the next life from her son.

A leaked copy of an early manuscript of the book revealed that he gave his mother a dose of morphine to help end her life, following her desperate pleas. Sean Davison was subsequently arrested for the attempted murder of his mother and stood trial in New Zealand in October 2011. After accepting a plea bargain he pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of assisted suicide and was sentenced to 5 months house arrest in Dunedin, New Zealand.

Dignity SA is the direct result of the experience of assisting his mother in her wish to die with dignity. Like Dignity NZ, Dignity SA follows the principles of the original Swiss Dignitas organisation founded in 1998 byLudwig Minelli, a Swiss lawyer.

WEEKEND BREAKFAST WITH KGOMOTSO 19 May 2013 7:40 AM
Kleptomania: Impulse Control Disorder
The causes of kleptomania have not been fully understood but preliminary research and clinical experience suggests an interaction of psychological, environmental and biological factors.
•Inside the brain of a kleptomaniac: A decrease in the availability of neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain has been associated with a tendency toward risk taking behaviors. Serotonin regulates emotions and mood of a person. There may also be an increase in the level of dopamine which produces feelings of pleasure and reinforces the stealing.
•Stolen objects are a symbol for something else: In many cases of kleptomania, some deep wishes which he or she is scared to acknowledge and suppresses. The stolen object fulfills these wishes in a symbolic and complicated manner.

Open Line
Que debated the proposal that first-year students at the University of KwaZulu-Natal will from next year have to enrol for a compulsory isiZulu course and pass in order to graduate. This was hugely debated with listeners highlighting the unfairness that it brings back the group areas act, that Zulus also should be made to learn another African language. Some listeners compared the proposal to studying abroad e.g In France or Brazil where one might be compelled to learn a certain language as a prerequisite. A listener pointing out that in order for some students to be accepted in varsity they write an English test to see if they can communicate and write well in the language
OVERNIGHT LIVE 19 May 2013 12:05 AM
Open Line with Katie MacDonald
Katie opened the show by looking at introducing compulsory indegenous language courses at tertiary level. She asked listeners whether it would not be better for indegenous languages to be taught from primary school level.

Listeners commented about how they found it easier to grasp new languages at a young age than when they are older, and how indegenous languages need to be respected more in the country.

Listeners also commented about the oddest thing they have ever left behind or forgot.

Katie also revealed a study which states that South Africa is one of the most racially friendly nations in the world. Listeners commented on why or why they do not agree with this study.

The most intensely discussed topic on the show was of how to combat the high number of casualties in traditional Xhosa circumcision schools. Katie expressed her concern about Mpumalanga's Health MEC's reluctance to take decisive action on the death of initiates in Mpumalanga this past week.

Listeners commented on how the practice needs to be modernised and regulated more, especially since there are more deaths from traditional circumcision now than in the past, and there the reality that there are bogus initiation schools that are operating.
