My name is Margaret, and I’m 71. When my husband died, my world fell apart. The only thing that kept me going was my grandson, Timmy. This sweetest boy brought a smile back into my life! But six months ago, my son and DIL cut me out of their lives, forbidding me from seeing him. No explanation, nothing — they just shut me out. I hadn’t cried so much since my husband’s funeral. My heart was breaking. Days ago, I went to them again. My DIL opened the door, already blocking my way. “I told you, Margaret. You’re not welcome…
A college student vanished after an early morning walk, leaving authorities to piece together her last known moments. Surveillance footage and witness accounts are now central to the investigation. Sudiksha Konanki, a 20-year-old University of Pittsburgh student from Virginia, disappeared during a spring break trip to the Dominican Republic. Authorities say she was last seen early Thursday morning near the Riu República Hotel in Punta Cana. Konanki had been traveling with five other female students from her university and was staying at the Riu República Hotel, a popular resort among spring breakers. According to her father, she told friends on March…
A study has revealed the link between gut health, eating certain fruit and the risk of depression. We’re told to eat fruit and veg because it’s good for our physical health, but – much like learning the gym is just as much for your mind as it is body – what could be the link between fruit and mental health? A study published in BMC dives into the possibility of diet being a ‘promising avenue for depression prevention and management’ opposed to using antidepressant medications. It reflects on how Mediterranean-style diets ‘have been associated with a nearly 35 percent reduced risk of depression’ and…
Spring has nearly sprung in the UK, but the vast majority of us are thinking about holidaying in Spain, rather than the other way around. However, one particularly large venomous spider has opted to swap Spain for Sussex after arriving in the UK alongside an olive shipment from Cordoba recently. At least it was only one, rather than the 1000s that were set free by a zoo last year. The eight-legged animal, which has since been identified as ‘Europe’s largest’ was first spotted by a nursery owner in West Sussex, who did not wish to be named. It truly is massive,…
We were sitting at Waffle House, just me and my 5-year-old son, Josiah, when he spotted a man standing outside. His clothes were worn, his face tired, and he carried everything he owned in a small, tattered bag. “Mom,” Josiah whispered, tugging at my sleeve. “Who is that?” I glanced over. “I think he might be homeless, sweetheart.” Josiah’s little face scrunched in confusion. “What does that mean?” “It means he doesn’t have a home,” I explained softly. “And he might not have food either.” That was all it took. Before I could stop him, Josiah jumped out of his…
As an adult, I decided to impart this brilliant method to my baby girl. I figured she could use it to get out of sleepovers or if she had awkward hangouts. But I never imagined her needing to use it so soon. So yesterday was like any other day—or so I thought. As I sat in my kitchen, finishing my evening coffee, my phone rang. It was my ex-husband, Dave. Our relationship, once filled with warmth and affection, had grown strained over the years. Divorce had a way of doing that, and while we tried to maintain a civil relationship…
Fifteen years ago, my wife, Lisa, kissed our newborn son and left to buy diapers. But she never returned. Last week, I saw her alive and well in a supermarket. What happened next was something I’ll never forget. I had spent the past 15 years searching for closure, raising my son Noah, and trying to make sense of Lisa’s disappearance. But nothing prepared me for the moment I saw her again. A man standing in a supermarket | Source: Midjourney At first, I thought I was dreaming. But after observing for a few minutes, I knew it was her. She…
A teenager has broken the world record for having the hairiest face. Lalit Patidar from India has an extremely rare condition called hypertrichosis, known as werewolf syndrome. There’s only been around 50 recorded cases of someone having the unique condition since the Middle Ages, says Guinness World Records, making Lalit a one in a billion. To assess Lalit, the 18-year-old had to travel to Milan, Italy, to visit a trichologist and starred on the TV show, Lo Show dei Record. It was then determined that he had a 201.72 hairs per square centimeter of skin, thus breaking the world record for a having the hairiest…
President Donald Trump has allegedly spent a hefty amount of taxpayers’ money on improving his sporting capabilities since returning to office earlier this year. Since being sworn in as the 47th President of the United States on January 20, Trump, 78, has hosted a disastrous meeting at the White House with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, and appointed Elon Musk to head up the Department of Government Efficiency. He had also claimed his presidential victory over Democratic ticket Kamala Harris was a ‘mandate’; is willing to release a ‘suspicious’ report on assassination attempts made against him, and recently signed an executive order establishing a controversial…
You might have been left wondering what Canada has against Jack Daniel’s. Earlier his month, The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) announced that it was removing US drinks from shop shelves — a threat Ontario premier Douglas Ford first made back in January. A statement from the LCBO issued at the time of its decision read that it had ‘ceased the purchase of all US products’, adding that ‘retail customers are no longer able to purchase US products on lcbo.com and the LCBO app, and wholesale customers, including grocery and convenience stores, bars, restaurants, and other retailers, are no longer able to place…
