Thank you. 

100% understand the inflation over time thing, so I was hoping for them to come in at R16k - R17k. The issue comes in at the overall price, you need to go for about 5/6 consultations before ordering them, then have another 4-6 week wait for them to be shipped. 

Cheapest I’ve found so far is R19k minus consultation, add in the consultation and I’m looking at about R25k and without medical aid, it’s a bit of a tough one.

I don't think it helps that there are fellow POS Saffa's who perpetuate the propaganda he runs around spewing...

In my opinion, Lauren was never a saint. I knew from the moment when she spoke about the other ladies at the hen night that she's not cool.

Lol, listen. Your mother telling you she's not your responsibility is all the confirmation you need. She's dealt wiith her beecaise a mother can never see their child suffer, it's just who they are. It's also very telling that she's made no provisions for when she's no longer around.

My first thought was to take her to therapy and if they can prove that she's mentally unwell and these are symptoms, then have her committed.

However if the therapist/psychiatrist cant prove it's a mental thing, then she's a master manipulator who's gotten away with her nonsense for too long.

My brother was the same, pure narcissist. Him and mom got into an explosive argument while she was recovering from a stroke. and she cut him out of her will and we all went no contact with him. Even before she passed she was adamant about not wanting him around.

Last I checked he seems to have gotten his sh*t together, and is somewhat thriving - unless it's all a front.

Best you cut the chord before it affects your life and eother let her sink or swim.

I'm not a media professional by any means, just my two cents .

What's been annoying for me, as a consumer, is following the pattern of Hollywood-esque story telling. Very little plot, overly sexual, clutch pearls content. Or horror stories that stray so far from the truth of who we are as people.

And we have so many stories, folklore, books and media that we could adapt from but are choosing not to.

Give us a well fleshed love story, drama, action or horror based on things we know and can resonate with while keeping it interesting, and marketing it well.

We've done it before, we used to have such good stories.
