http://amanzidu.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
An African's experience of the beautiful country that harbors more creatures that can kill you in extremely horrible and nasty ways than just about anywhere else on the planet.

Over the years the strip has raised other social and political issues in a humorous way. Shortly after reading Bongi's series about patient's lies. Links to this post.

Amanzimtoti: March 2009
http://amanzi-mtoti.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 20, 2009. I recently attended some lectures where the speaker told us about an exam question she'd set about adherence to HIV drugs. Some guy had answered: 1. Rural people cannot be trusted to be adherent 2. Especially women. Needless to say, he failed. Maybe I just misinterpreted what happened, but I doubt it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Amanzimtoti: May 2010
http://amanzi-mtoti.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 26, 2010. What's in a name? I collect odd names. I realise now that sounds a bit weird, but having a odd name myself, I think it's fine. Anyway, here are a few odd names I've picked up over a couple of years. They're a mix of patient and non patient names, including waiters, shop attendants, etc. - generally people who wear name tags. No surnames are included. Nappy - this is the non American word for diaper. Surprise - his mom was obviously not expecting him! Sakkie - Afrikaans for packet.

Amanzimtoti: Priorities
http://amanzi-mtoti.blogspot.com/2010/05/priorities.html
Monday, May 24, 2010. So I see this patient and she's at death's door. She has multiple pathology and needs admission to hospital. I'm pretty sure I can pull her through, given the chance. But will I be given the chance? Her husband has escorted her in and whilst I'm filling in the admission forms, the nursing sister comes to me and says that the husband wants to leave and take his wife with him. I'm flabbergasted. "What's the problem? I want to know. "Why didn't he bring his wife in then? But the more p...

Amanzimtoti: October 2008
http://amanzi-mtoti.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 23, 2008. So I've finally given birth, yay! It's a beautiful little girl and she was born yesterday morning :) Quite a story about how it happened but I'll tell it next time. Right now I'm just going to recover and spend time with my family. Monday, October 13, 2008. Family make the worst patients. I'm not sure if this is universal, but in my personal experience and those of my close friends and colleagues, your own family members and close family friends are always the worst patients.

Amanzimtoti: November 2008
http://amanzi-mtoti.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2008. I find dealing with medical aid's extremely frustrating. So on the morning that I started having contractions I called the medical aid for my authorization number. The call centre lady asked if my due date was still the same. "Yes" I answered, "but I'm having contractions now so that's why I'm calling for the number now". "Have you seen your doctor yet? So I went to the labour ward that evening (21 October) as I've mentioned. And gave birth the next morning. She asked. "I...

utterly fab: the jersey edition: Foot Fetish
http://utterlyfabchick.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Utterly fab: the jersey edition. Life is too short to live any other way. Saturday, September 29, 2007. I heart shoes.and not in that stereotypical "fat chick who has lots of shoes because she can't fit into regular clothes" type way. In addition to being a fat chick, I also have large feet.so even if I wanted to redirect my fashion frustrations to my feet - it wasn't happening. All that energy got directed to 2 things - getting smarter and getting fatter, but I digress. Posted by Urban Chick. Socks are ...
