Net soos \u2019n kind wat deur \u2019n kombers of speelding gesus word, s\u00f3 word \u2019n persoon wat met demensie of alzheimers leef deur \u2019n vroetelmou gesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Helpende Hand het weer vanjaar \u2019n Breinaald-projek van stapel gestuur waarin die gemeenskap vroetelmoue<\/span><\/span>brei om pasi\u00ebnte soos di\u00e9 se gemoedere te streel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDie hele land se mense was gaande oor die projek en mense in werkskomplekse, skole en tehuise het saam gebrei,\u201d s\u00ea Alisha de Lange, streekorganiseerder van die Wes-Kaap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOns wil eintlik net alzheimer- en demensie-pasi\u00ebnte se hande en verstand besig hou gedurende hierdie tyd.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mense wat met demensie of alzheimers leef, soek dikwels na iets om aan te peuter. Hulle trek of byt aan hul klere, bal hul vuiste saam, vryf hul vingers teen mekaar, of krap selfs hul arms stukkend. Hulle voel telkemale ge\u00efrriteerd of angstig as hulle nie uiting aan hul emosies kan gee nie. Dit is ook waarom di\u00e9 mense soms gewelddadig raak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Vroetelmoue help om hierdie pasi\u00ebnte se rusteloosheid te tem en voorsien selfs ure se stimulasie en pret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Vroetelmoue kan gebrei of gehekel word en op die mou word allerhande artikels vasgewerk waarmee pasi\u00ebnte dan liefs kan peuter, soos gebreide wurms, krale, knopies, klokkies, lint, spons of selfs net stukkies wol. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Studies vanuit versorgingseenhede wys dat hierdie soort moue baie voordelig is vir die gemoedstoestand van demensie- en alzheimer-pasi\u00ebnte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBaie van die vrywilligers het familie of vriende wat demensie of alzheimers het en hulle verstaan die frustrasie wat sulke mense beleef en wou graag verligting bring deur middel van \u2019n vroetelmou,\u201d meen De Lange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOns het \u2019n geskatte waarde van byna R20 000 se vroetelmoue ontvang wat meer as 446 moue is. Hierdie moue is by 15 tehuise in die streek afgelewer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Vroetelmoue is egter nie die enigste manier om hierdie pasi\u00ebnte te sus nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSaam met die vroetelmoue het ons ook heelwat vroetelkomberse ontvang wat baie popul\u00ear is onder die vrywilligers wat nie kan brei nie, maar steeds kreatief wil wees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTe danke aan die publiek se skenkings en die vrywilligers wat die nood raakgesien het, was en is hierdie projek steeds \u2019n reusesukses.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As jy nie \u2019n brei-foendi is nie, maar steeds \u2019n bydrae wil maak, kan jy gerus wol by jou naaste Helpende Hand-tak aflaai, \u2019n vroetelkombers maak of \u2019n finansi\u00eble bydrae aan die projek maak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stuur e-pos na alisha@helpendehand.co.za
