About this listen

This week on LEISURE LINK with Peter Greco:

  • Pat Mickan, Olympian, Netball and Ausie Rules coach; Administrator and so much more, has been deservedly inducted in to the Sport SA Hall of Fame,
  • Dr Adam Bryant, Senior Staff Specialist Haematologist at Liverpool Hospital, had news on a totally different - first of its kind – treatment. Blenrep has being approved for use in Australia for people who have relapsed after initial treatment for myeloma – it is described as a 'trojan horse therapy'
  • Myfanwy Schostakowski was told she was having triplets. Myfanwy talks about the incredible support from Mum for Mum and the challenges of a multiple birth as well as raising awareness of perinatal mental health.
  • David Mitchell, health commentator, shared tips to minimise the impact of hangovers; and even some preventative measures - a must listen at these festive times.
  • Belinda Hellyer, from Brewed By Belinda, tempted our taste buds and encouraged us to try using tea in our cooking for Christmas and the festive season.
  • Professor Abraham Jacob, a leading colorectal surgeon, spoke about incontinence and some remarkable and revolutionary surgical techniques that make a huge difference to quality of life - Sacral Neuromodulation is such a procedure,
  • Mark Townend, CEO for Spinal Life, was outraged at the impact of NDIS cuts on people with disability - leaving individuals unable to meet the most basic human need: going to the toilet safely and with dignity. Are politicians listening?
