#Lymedisease
From 11 weeks to 11 years ~ then in the blink of an eye she was gone.

Memories of once being owned by a #Huntaway
➡ Residents evacuated from their homes in Nethy Bridge are safe to return to their properties.
➡ Major incident stood down.
➡ Ongoing response to tackle the wildfire remains a priority.
➡ Significant operational resource remains in place until incident is safely concluded.
@ExplorerJust 😍 I know how this goes 😁
I had one yowl all the way from Morvern to Assynt at 9 weeks 😂, she was the loudest dog all her days 🥰
Enjoy every woof!
5 years ago this evening my darling girl Cuan bade her final goodnight. Missed every day but she left me with cherished memories, 'til we meet again 💔🐾💔

Cuan was my gentle protector, dearest friend and constant companion throughout her entire life and is still sorely missed.

I GOT THE JUDICIAL REVIEW IN SCOTLAND!!!!!!!
Of the legality in Scots law of the proscription of Palestine Action in Scotland.
Full judicial review 17 to 18 March at the Court of Session in Edinburgh.
The judge Lord Young's decision just landed.
Having been seized from an abusive owner by the RSPCA Thunder has been in kennels for 3 months but no one wants a Mali x & so he remains there with the threat of being PTS. He is nothing like a Mali just a gentle chap who craves human company. Give him a chance. He is lovely.
A wee selection from last night's quite incredible aurora display.
I've never seen anything quite like it in my lie.

Charlotte’s Brain Tumour Journey
18.2.1997 – 24.2.2016
Diagnosis to death: 951 days
My mum and brother work tirelessly to put brain cancer on the map. I am no longer here. I died aged 19 years and 5 days, having spent my 19th birthday in a coma in 2016. That may sound a long time ago, but to my family it will always feel like yesterday.
When I was told I had a brain tumour, it felt like I had won first prize in the worst lottery imaginable. I loved life and there was so much I wanted to do. I was diagnosed in 2013, at the age of 16. My world fell apart. I was meant to start college that September - instead, I began chemotherapy and radiotherapy. From diagnosis to death, I lived for 31 months.
We kept a diary throughout my cancer journey. Sometimes I was able to live a little, so not every day is recorded. My mum now shares our words on X to raise awareness of one of the most underfunded cancers.
My treatment was the standard NHS chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Treatment abroad is incredibly expensive and out of reach for most families. Standard treatment remains the reality for the majority of brain tumour patients. There has been no advancement beyond the chemotherapy, Temozolomide, since it was first licensed in 1999.
My mum and brother both work full-time while also running the charity started in my name. Charlotte's BAG sefl-fund, meaning that every penny of your donation goes to brain cancer research at Charlotte's Lab, King's College Hospital, London. The charity pays expenses personally, from train tickets to conferences and charity events to PO Box & PayPal fees. We believe this is the least owed to those whose life Charlotte touched.
Charlotte was brave, kind, and wise beyond her years. She shared her journey openly on her YouTube channel. Her final video was filmed on 4 February 2016, the day before she went into a coma.
Since then, her channel has been watched more than 26 million times around the world. Through this work, her legacy lives on.
A RT or follow would be greatly appreciated to help reach a wider audience.

At this time of year, post Christmas holidays and in the midst of short days, long nights and winter weather, some of the people around you could be struggling. Now would be a good time to #checkonyourteam
Our beautiful old ragamuffin Lola peacefully went to sleep forever. It was her time 🐶🌈
Originally from Romania, Lola had been brought over to a UK rescue. Too feral to rehome she was kept on her own in a cold barn, living in the most squalid conditions. When her rescue was closing down we were asked to help.
We can only be there for dogs like Lola thanks to our Golden Paw Club members whose £5 a month enables us to take dogs who need more care. Some would say dogs like Lola aren't worth saving, but it has been our privilege to make her last couple of years her very best.
We have more supporters needing to pause their subscriptions than ever. Of course we understand, times are so hard. But if anyone were fortunate enough to be the position to pick up the baton and join today it would mean the world.
Because together we can make such a difference 💜
