“I love you, bro.” – They’re a simple few words, but they carry huge weight to help break down traditional barriers and normalise men sharing their feelings.

Ahead of tomorrow night’s big State of Origin decider, Chris and Christopher from Pine Rivers Community Health Centre gave us a glimpse into their ‘bromance’. 🏉

With reports of loneliness increasing in Australia, particularly among young people, reaching out to your mates has never been more important - even if it's as simple as wishing them goodnight 😴

Regardless of the result tomorrow night, the message is clear – look out for your friends, check in with them often, and let them know what their friendship means to you.

If you or someone you care about is struggling and needs support, reach out to 13 HEALTH or contact Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Meet Graeme. Having been a long-term Home, Independent Dialysis and Transition Service patient, he recently transitioned to receiving assisted care at Banfield Kidney Health Centre in Chermside.

Graeme lives with renal failure, a condition he describes as 'challenging'.

The assisted care that Graeme and others like him receive at Banfield allows the patient to maintain a level of independence within a controlled environment, with nursing support nearby when needed.

"The dedication, professionalism, compassion and calmness from the nursing staff has helped me continue on the bad days," Graeme said,

"I will never forget their comfort, reassurance and good humour- no amount of thanks is enough."

This week marks Kidney Action Week, where we are reminding Australians to take the 2-minute online test to check their risk of getting kidney disease. Head to the link below to learn more and get started:
