Dedem Alzheimer olduktan sonra bizi bazen tanıyor, bazen yabancı gibi bakıyordu. Ama bir şey hiç değişmiyordu.
Sürekli aynı kadını soruyordu.
“Şermin geldi mi?” “Şermin yemek yedi mi?” “Şermin hâlâ bana kırgın mı?”
Evde herkes birbirine bakıyordu çünkü ailemizde Şermin diye biri yoktu.
İlk başta hastalık yüzünden kafası karışıyor sandık. Ama gün geçtikçe bu isim dedemin diline değil, sanki kalbine yerleşmiş gibi oldu. Sabah gözünü açar açmaz onu soruyordu. Hatta bir gün anneannemin elini tutup: “Şermin, gitme…” dedi.
Anneannemin yüzündeki o kırgınlığı hâlâ unutamıyorum.
Bir akşam dedem kayboldu. Evde yoktu. Hepimiz panik olduk. Saatlerce sokak sokak aradık. En sonunda eski mahallelerinin olduğu tarafta, kapalı bir apartmanın önünde bulduk onu.++
A friend of mine used to work for her husband’s brother (that’s how they met). After they got married, her boss suddenly decided she didn’t need a paycheck anymore because “family doesn’t pay family.” So she quit and got another job without telling her husband first.
He completely lost it
While she was asleep, he locked her in the bedroom then changed every lock in the house, installed deadbolts on the outside of the door so she couldn’t leave unless he let her out, and took her phone.
It still took her almost two hours to contact us online because thankfully this idiot forgot laptops exist. The second she reached us…
What a night. Truly grateful to everyone talking about our film, Call Of My Life. If you loved it, please tell someone about it ❤️
Call Of My Life in cinemas nationwide - May 15th.
Advance screening - May 14th at IMAX Cinemas.

When I say my GOAT😮💨
Dr. Stella Ameyo Adadevoh is her name. In 2014, a man flew into Lagos carrying the Ebola virus. He wanted to leave the hospital to attend a conference, which would have sparked a massive outbreak in a city of 20 million people. Dr. Adadevoh said No. Despite intense pressure, she refused to discharge him, physically keeping him quarantined to protect the public. Because of her bravery, Nigeria contained the virus quickly. Sadly, she contracted Ebola herself and passed away. She is quite literally the reason a generation stayed safe.
I know her husband and children are out there somewhere. Your wife and mom is a hero. I'll never forget about her.
PTSD man, fvcking PTSD!
I battled with this sh!t for years, till I had a surgery done. Terrible experience!
Idk who needs to hear this, but you have no business taking your phone to the toilet. Go in there, do your thing and leave ASAP.
Do not leave your ass open-sitting in the toilet for too long!!!
Nigerians are lazy is still the wildest statement. Young boys are trekking/cycling under hot sun to deliver packages so they can eat.
Delivery man will call you and beg you to help him bring water so he can drink small. Water of N200, he can’t afford because it’ll make a big dent in his finances.
Women are running multiple side hustles to make ends meet.
🚨THIS IS HEARTBREAKING🚨
GANG-RAPE VICTIM, 25, TO DIE BY EUTHANASIA TODAY AFTER COURTS OVERRULE FATHER’S DESPERATE BID TO SAVE HER!
Noelia Castillo was brutally gang-raped in 2022 by her ex-boyfriend and three other men – then jumped from a fifth-floor building in a suicide bid that left her paraplegic from the waist down, in constant unbearable neuropathic pain, incontinent and wheelchair-bound.
She begged for assisted dying under Spain’s law; father fought it all the way to the Constitutional Court, Supreme Court and European Court of Human Rights, claiming mental health issues.
Every appeal rejected. She dies TODAY at her Catalan care home.
“I just want to stop suffering,” she said. A young life destroyed.
