It's time for my kids to get ready for bed for the last time.
9 yrs ago today DW will call at 7pm bc my dad forgot to bring their goodnight stories books. I see them over FT, all snuggled in with my parents in their PJs as I read.
They will all be dead in less than 24 hours.

@Mish68Lewis @JamesTGallagher I am interested as well in the trial

[Sheri Gilmour @SheriGilmour2]

@TheBischoff777 @JamesTGallagher I completely changed my lifestyle when I was diagnosed in 2007 and eliminated everything you suggested. I even made my own condiments and almond flour for baking. It really does help but doesn’t cure it unfortunately. I still have flare ups 😩

@michellecheatle @JamesTGallagher @B12info @Glynis4B12 @SamNash13 @zoeharcombe @hormonedietdoc @simplify_drugs I have UC and I take b12 daily. I still unfortunately suffer from the disease 😩

[Sheri Gilmour @SheriGilmour2]

@skratchalien @JamesTGallagher So true! I have UC as well and it is debilitating when you aren’t in remission!

@TwyloII @JamesTGallagher I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in 2007 and being diagnosed was a long journey. I am thankful to be in remission however as I am aging (44 yrs old) I find I am having more and more flare ups. Nobody could understand the pain and how life altering it is unless you have it

@CTVToronto I waited almost 24 hrs too. Almost 12 without any pain medicine. It is extremely painful!

@ErikZarins @blogTO It’s unbelievable to me how many people just stand there and watch violence unfold. Yet think to record the incident.

In 2022, Ryker Webb, a 3-year-old boy from Montana, was playing in his front yard when decided to wander off while his dad was inside the house. Upon his father's return a few moments later, Ryker was nowhere to be seen.

Assuming his son would be nearby, his father, having only briefly gone inside, expected a quick search. However, as day turned into night, it became evident that finding him would not be a swift task.

His family was in distress, and what heightened their concern was the fact that their area in Montana was inhabited by numerous mountain lions and bears.

Following his family's report of him missing, Montana's Air National Guard deployed helicopters and drones in an attempt to locate Ryker. However, heavy thunderstorms forced them to cancel air operations, leading to a ground search of the area.

After 48 hours, hope was dwindling rapidly, but to everyone's astonishment, something remarkable occurred.

A couple who lived around 2.5 miles away heard whimpers coming from a shed on their property and found the toddler inside tucked into a lawnmower bag.

Thankfully he wasn’t injured, just cold, hungry and thirsty. He went on to recover from the ordeal.

In 2017, Yang Ming, a 37-year-old, was thrown backward onto a protruding metal rod after accidentally coming into contact with a live wire at a construction site.

His coworkers opted to leave the pole in place and quickly transported him to the hospital, where surgeons could safely extract it.

Ming underwent a successful seven-hour surgery at Sichuan University West China Hospital, during which the protruding rod was safely removed. Fortunately, the rod missed all vital organs, and he survived.

🔥🚨BREAKING NEWS: Arrests were just made in a high-profile sex trafficking ring that involved government contractors, professors, military officers, executives at pharmaceutical companies and more

This trafficking ring was operating in apartment complexes in Cambridge, Dedham, and Watertown, Massachusetts as well as Virginia.

"They are doctors, they are lawyers, they're accountants, they are executives at high-tech companies, pharmaceutical companies, they're military officers, government contractors, professors, scientists," Levy said of the brothels' customers.

"Pick a profession, they're probably represented in this case."

In 2014, a 15-year-old Pakistani schoolboy named Aitzaz Hasan noticed a stranger wearing a suicide vest entering his school.

Despite being urged by his friends to run away, Aitzaz decided to confront the bomber.

He grabbed the terrorist, and that's when the explosive vest detonated. Killing Aitzaz instantly.

His actions prevented the terrorist from entering the school and killing hundreds of students.

Following his death, his father said, "My son made his mother cry but saved hundreds of mothers from crying for their children."

Speaking about abduction:

In 1994, Alison Botha was abducted near her home in South Africa.

Frans du Toit and Theuns Kruger took her to a deserted area on the outskirts of town. There, they brutally raped her, disemboweled her, and slashed her throat so deeply that she was nearly decapitated.

As her attackers finally stepped back, Botha heard one of them say: “Do you think she’s dead?” “No one can survive that,” the other replied. The men then drive off.

In total she suffered 30 stab wounds & 16 slashes to her neck. Somehow, she remained conscious.

Lying alone atop sand and broken glass, Botha wrote the name of her attackers in the sand.

She then realised she might have a chance at survival. In the distance, she could see headlights streaking through the bushes. If she could just manage to get onto the road, someone might be able to help her.

While holding her nearly decapitated head onto her shoulders with one hand and keeping her intestines in with her other, she headed towards the road.

A young veterinary student named Tiaan Eilerd found Botha lying on the road, and then called emergency services.

One of her doctors said that he’d never seen such severe injuries in his 16 years of practicing medicine.

Luckily, she went on to make a full recovery and has since told her story in at least 35 countries.

In 2013, 5-year-old Jocelyn Rojas was abducted from her front yard by a man in a car who lured her with ice cream.

Fortunately, 15-year-old Temar Boggs and his friend witnessed the incident and decided to take action. They quickly grabbed their bikes and chased after the car.

For 15 minutes, the teenagers pursued the car until the kidnapper realized he had been noticed. He pushed the girl out of the car and fled the scene.

Thanks to the bravery of the two boys, the little girl was rescued. Without their intervention, her fate might have been very different.
