Dubai. This means Dubai. It’s the most well known city in the UAE. For most of us who are geographically challenged, it’s important to name and shame Dubai. Don’t go there, don’t let them launder their reputation with chocolate.
Don’t be fooled by the wave of states “recognizing Palestine.” This is not liberation, it’s a move meant to neutralize our struggle. Meanwhile, Gaza is in ruins, countless killed, land annexed in the West Bank. Symbolic recognition while Palestine is erased in real time.
Right now, I’m thinking of this five-year-old little girl shot to death with 335 bullets. Along with the other 100,000 plus Palestinians, sniped in the neck and heart for the last two years. RIP all of you.
I'm disappointed no donations no support no sharing you broke my heart and shut my voice up.
If you’re scrolling, PLEASE leave a dot . it's just a dot.
Guys , This post might be deleted later . PLEASE WE NEED YOUR HELP. PLEASE REPOST. NEPAL 🇳🇵 SITUATION IS DEVASTATING.
Here's a thread of what happened during the protest.
The Freedom Flotilla has over 50 boats, from 44 countries, spanning 6 continents
The largest in history:
To break an illegal 18 year Israeli 🇮🇱 siege on Gaza 🇵🇸
To feed children
To stop genocide
And western media is not covering
And western ‘leaders’ are silent.
London relies on Underground staff for £50m a day of economic activity. But those same workers are being rostered into exhaustion.
@RMTunion members assist passengers every day. They don't want to inconvenience you but fatigue and understaffing are a dangerous mix.
Both the famines in Palestine and Sudan have crossed beyond stage 5. This means they’ve reached a level of no return. Beyond fixation. The starvation has changed the very genetics of our people. I will never forgive the world for what it allowed to happen. We are beyond tired.
*IMPORTANT*
Please read & share, it could save you or a loved one from a lifetime of chronic system-wide illness. 🙏❤️
Today I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease.😔
I was bitten by 4 ticks 30 days ago & had a red rash come up around one of the bites, that soon started spreading.
As there was no 'bullseye', I didn't think it was Lyme, I assumed it was just a reaction, especially as the rash wasn't painful or itchy..(see photo)
It WAS Lyme!
Any rash around a tick bite is diagnostic.
I didn't know this. 😕
I was bitten at Shapwick Heath on the Somerset Levels.
I've since learnt some areas of the UK have a higher risk of Lyme, and the Somerset Levels is one of them.
If you go out in the countryside, take care... stick to paths and try to avoid brushing up against vegetation, that's how the ticks get on you.
Always check yourself over for ticks when you get home. The longer a tick is attached to you, the higher the chance of infection.
If you find a tick, don't panic, remove it carefully with a tick removal tool or tweezers, being careful not to squeeze the tick.
Keep an eye on the bite for the next month... if a rash starts to develop at the site of the bite in that time, go to your doctor ASAP!
Explain that you were bitten by the tick, and have now developed a rash at the site... they will prescribe antibiotics, usually Doxycycline, for at least 3 weeks.
You may be asked to have a blood test too, but these aren't reliable in the early stages of Lyme, insist on starting the antibiotics immediately.
Sometimes, you don't even get a rash. In these cases, if you get flu-like symptoms in the 30 days after a tick bite, go and see a doctor, it's probably Lyme Disease and you'll need antibiotics.
Many people with debilitating advanced Lyme Disease didn't see the signs, or they just ignored them.
Lyme Disease is usually curable in the early stages, but can become a chronic lifelong illness affecting every system in your body, if left untreated! 😔
I'm not posting this to scare anybody, but because I was ignorant to the rash, and if it hadn't been for my youngest daughter badgering me to get it checked out, I'd not be sat here taking antibiotics for Lyme Disease... I wouldn't even know I had it, and many of the later symptoms are confused with other illnesses!
A case in point is the fabulous musician @Renmakesmusic, who was only diagnosed with Lyme Disease 6 years after being infected! 😯
He really suffered in those years, spending much of it in bed, too ill to get up, but not having a clue what he was suffering with.
I'm obviously no medical expert, all I've written here has come from my own research & experience, so in case there are some inaccuracies, learn more from @UKLyme 🙏
However, you get the picture... if this post prevents just one person getting advanced Lyme Disease, I'd be delighted!
Prevention is better than cure, so please be careful out there!
Don't be ignorant to the dangers of ticks, rashes and Lyme Disease.. don't be like me! 🙏❤️
this is nothing short of a systematic elimination of doctors, and by extension, every palestinian life in gaza. israel is targeting healthcare professionals with precision.
A British guide to...
Terrorism:
- picking up a flag
- putting paint on a war plane
Not terrorism:
- executing 200 journalists
- murdering 30,000 kids
- bombing 37 hospitals
- allowing babies decompose in ICU beds
- starving 2million people
- shoot people queuing for flour
