The cleanup operation around the area continues, following last week´s flooding as a result of the DANA weather phenomenon. Local charitable groups called for the donation of clothes, food, cleaning and school supplies and their requests were met with a barrage of items donated by well-wishers who wanted to do whatever they could to help. Spare land was given up to house animals, some of whom were rescued from the brink of death,

as was seen in at least one video posted on social media of Guardia Civil officers trying to rescue a somewhat stubborn donkey. Their insistence paid off and the animal was saved. Sadly, this was not the case for others with Orihuela town hall having to issue instructions on how to have animals, both pets and larger beasts, collected by the relevant departments.

Damaso Aparicio, was snapped wearing high visibility clothing and helping refuse workers collect rubbish by hand as the service was inundated. Apparently not a publicity photocall as he wasn´t even aware the picture had been taken, just another attempt to fulfil the “all hands on deck” commitment that all most locals exhibited.

Even officials were out in the field helping. The President of Orihuela´s Partido Popular (PP),

The pilots were flying in a propeller-driven aircraft, namely the Chilean Enaer T-35C Pillán, which has been used by the air academy since 1987. Although it has been a largely

successful aircraft of the Spanish air force, the prototype, which first flew in 1981, was destroyed in a crash during a flight the following year. The 112 emergency coordination centre was inundated with calls reporting the crash and immediately despatched assistance to the scene which is already awash with emergency workers dealing with the aftermath of the recent floods. This is the second incident after Francisco Marin Nuñoz lost his life when his aircraft crashed.

which is not just a dramatic description but rather changes the status and how dealing with the aftermath means that there is more support available, including from the Spanish government and an additional insurance security fund. If you have suffered damage you must notify your insurance company, even if you believe that your policy doesn´t cover the damage. It is possible that any damage sustained will still be covered but by a concept known as the Consorcio de Compensación de Seguros (CCS), or Consorcio for short. The Consorcio was set up by the Spanish Government around 80 years ago and was designed to help victims

who have suffered in the event of extraordinary circumstances. The Consorcio is an additional cover to that of your own policy and extends the same coverage that your policy would, but specifically designed for situations like this, typically being activated to cover damage caused by earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, wind, and flooding, amongst others. You have already paid into the scheme, perhaps without being aware, as it is compulsory on all policies.

them are from Los Alcázares, 571 of Murcia, 467 from Cartagena, 347 from San Javier and 233 from Torre Pacheco); 1,988 come from Alicante (of which 791 are from Orihuela, 161 from Almoradí and 117 from Elche); 316 from Valencia (from which 226 are from Ontinyet); 267 of Almería (127 are from Almería capital and 60 from Níjar); 175 of Malaga; 161 of Madrid and the rest, less than 100, come from the rest of the provinces.

The assessors from the CCS have already estimated that 30,000 properties will be covered by the policy, to the tune of approximately 203 million euro. In the provinces of Alicante and Valencia, the CCS estimates a total of 12,000 claims; of which 9,300 correspond to homes, businesses, industries and civil works, and 2,700 to automobiles. The total estimated cost amounts to 103 million euro. The most damaged areas are Orihuela and the rest of the Vega Baja region, in Alicante, and Ontinyent and rest of the Vall de Albaida region, in Valencia.

As with any insurance, there are terms and conditions which must be met in order to qualify, but CCS assessors will be tasked with examining the damage and deciding what is covered, and so you have nothing to lose by the process.

So far the CCS has received 6,258 claims for compensation, which correspond to 3,896 homes, 1,548 cars, 667 businesses, offices and nonindustrial establishments, and 147 industries. Of the 6,258 applications, 3,147 come from Murcia (724 of

compensation from the CCS. You can register a claim yourself or, as many people live in their native lands, the request can be made by your representative. Contacting your insurance company is the best option, as they should handle everything for you, but you can call the CCS direct on 900 222 665, or register through the internet at www.consorseguros.es (with electronic ID or certificate).

Local insurance provider Ibex describes how a “useful rule of thumb is that if the rainwater comes through your roof it is not covered by the Consorcio but if the rainwater comes through your door it is.” There is no deadline for requesting

Body found The body of the 66-year-old Dutchman that went missing during the storms last week has been found. The man, from Dolores, disappeared on Sunday in Dolores and rescue teams spent three days searching for him. His body was discovered on Tuesday lunchtime by a Protección Civil

volunteer in the Reina Canal located in the municipality of San Fulgencio. It was confirmed that the Dutchman died after being swept away by the current of water. The number of people that tragically lost their lives during the gota fría storms now totals seven.

Wellies for Workers The AUGC union representing Guardia Civil officers has launched a petition amongst members to try to encourage the government to provide them with Wellington boots for dealing with water-based incidents.

They also point out that the Guardia Civil are the emergency service who often respond to incidents first and therefore must be properly equipped.

The union has pointed out that with their intervention in floods becoming more frequent, they need appropriate footwear, as “it is not comfortable to be 8 hours in wet shoes”.

DEAD TUNA POSE HEALTH THREAT More than 100 dead red tuna fish in various states of decomposition have been sighted along the coast between Guardamar del Segura, Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and Pilar de la Horadada, just a few metres from the local beaches located in these municipalities.

Further down the coast, in the Region of Murcia, the town hall has been forced to close various local beaches, particularly in the La Manga area, due to the health risks posed by the apparition of these dead specimens.

A number of the dead tuna have been carried by the current and currently lie washed up on the shores of Mil Palmeras beach, amongst others. The specimens originally came from a fattening farm in San Pedro del Pinatar and are thought to have perished in last week’s

storms, although this hasn’t officially been confirmed by the company.

In Murcia, the dead fish are being removed and taken away by collection vehicles. However, in the Alicante Province, the tuna is yet to be disposed of and is potentially causing a hazardous health risk. When the fish, which were originally destined to be exported to Asian markets, first appeared, almost a week ago, many people took advantage of the fresh seafood and took them home to filet and cook. However, the large specimens, weighing around 150 – 200kg, are now rotting and need to be disposed of correctly.

FRUIT FLY RISK INCREASE As the weather has taken priority for many farmers set to lose their entire crops and livelihoods due to the floods, the provincial environmental department has reminded them of another possible risk, that of Ceratitis. Ceratitis is a genus of tephritid fruit flies with about 80

species. One of the best-known species is Ceratitis capitata, the Mediterranean fruit fly.

Adults lay their eggs under the skins of fruit, particularly where the skin is already broken. The eggs hatch within 3 days and the larvae develop inside the fruit. Maggots may stay from 5 to 10

A distressed loggerhead sea turtle was found on La Mata beach earlier this week by a beach-cleaning employee, who immediately called the Local Police to help. The 30-centimetrelong turtle was trapped in a net and showed signs of strangulation after trying to free itself to no avail. Its right wing was also infected, according to the municipal biologist that treated him. The turtle is now recuperating in Valencia at the Oceanogràfic’s ARCA

(Sea Animals Recovery and Conservation Area. The loggerhead sea turtle is an endangered species, categorised as vulnerable at a global level by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). If you happen to come across a loggerhead turtle on one of our local beaches, you should immediately call 112. It is imperative that the turtle is not disturbed and is kept away from bright lights and the sun.

days (depending on temperature and food availability by fruit size). Once the larvae reach the next development stage, they dig their way out of the fruit, making a small hole and then falling to the ground where they start to dig and then pupate a few centimetres underground. Depending on the temperature, adult emergence may occur in as short as 7 days. The adults have a limited ability to disperse, but the global fruit trade can transport infected fruit over thousands of miles. Orihuela, San Miguel and Albetera are all on the risk map, amongst other locations around the area, with the environmental department urging farmers to take appropriate action as soon as possible.

Torrevieja invests in scheme to help elderly residents living on their own The Town Hall of Torrevieja has announced that over the next four years it will invest more than 3.3 million euro in a new initiative that aims to offer home assistance to elderly people living on their own or to couples unable to carry out basic daily tasks by themselves like going shopping, cleaning, cooking or other basic essentials. The contract for this new home-help service has been awarded to Protección Geriátrica, who employs approximately 30 staff, for the sum of 579,000 euro per annum. The final details are

being determined before the contract can be signed and the initiative can begin to operate, despite the fact that the contract was awarded five months ago. Along with Benidorm, the municipality of Torrevieja is at the top of the ranking for the number of people living on their own in relation to the population. In Torrevieja, a third of people are registered as living on their own – approximately 14,468 residents – while 28 per cent of them are over the age of 60.

Torrevieja’s Social Services Department is finding it increasingly difficult to cope with the growing number of petitions for home help by elderly residents who have been discharged from hospital after an illness or operation and still require assistance while they recover but who live on their own and lack the help of family members.

IS YOUR QROPS, SIPP OR SPANISH BOND A LAME DUCK? By Sam Kelly, Managing Partner, Chorus Financial. I have been very vocal in my criticism of commission paying underlying investments in products such as pension transfers or Spanish investment bonds for many years now, with that culminating last year in Chorus winning a major European award for our steadfast campaign. I fail to see the positives of a financial advisor receiving a secret cash incentive for putting their clients into a particular investment fund or structured note. Not only does this dramatically increase the cost of these products for the client, but it also near but guarantees the advisor is not choosing the best product available for their clients. As investors you are already taking a certain degree of risk for that return,

Many 10,000s of you have already been placed into commission paying funds without your knowledge and many others will be unwittingly about to sign up to a new investment, or pension transfer exposed to these types of practises. and the thought of an advisor increasing that risk to line their owns pockets, with no benefit to their clients, really is stomach churning.

TURNING BACK EXTINCTION THREAT The Valencia region has welcomed 4 new residents this week, although they didn´t have to go through any of the paper loopholes in order to reside in the area, they were brought in and welcomed especially to try to turn back the clock on extinction. The little residents are birds, however, Osprey to be precise, who were reintroduced into the wild by the regional environmental department after they have been classed as extinct as a nesting bird for the last 50 years.

Two of the chicks were brought in from the Balearic Islands, the others from Cadíz, in the hope that they might once again find the Valencia region appealing. The department is trying to reverse trends of birds and other wildlife leaving the area, some of which are as a result of building, others through environmental abuse, and are asking all municipalities, businesses and residents to do whatever they can to promote the protection of the delicate environment.

We are pleased to announce we will have a brand new purpose built tanatorio & crematorio in San Miguel de Salinas Grupo Rocamer are one of only a few companies who offer this type of plan to prepare for your funeral expenses. Rocamer have been in existence for over 70 years and have built up a trust and reliability within the Spanish & Expat communities. Now this opportunity is being offered to the British & Irish communities too, and you don’t have to be a permanent resident in Spain.

Suma Bill Due Date Extended The voluntary period for payment of municipal taxes, which are collected by the SUMA agency, is about to come to an end. Normally, homeowners have until 4 October to pay the bill at a reduced rate, or a surcharge is added if payment is delayed to beyond the assigned date. However, there´s good news for the

residents of some of the locations affected by flooding, in that the Alicante provincial government has given an extra month grace period for certain areas, extending the payment period until 5 November. Not all areas will benefit from the extension, so it is worth checking with your local SUMA office or town hall.

Big Reds Needs Help Big Reds Animal retreat was badly affected by the devastating storms last week. John who looks after the animals at the sanctuary house woke to find water rising rapidly into the house. Acting quickly he released all the animals and carried them to the second floor of the house. The situation became much worse very quickly as the house then started to subside with everyone inside! The local community rescued all the animals with blow-up dingy’s by wading neck-deep in the water. John then had to be airlifted to safety by local services as no one could reach him at this point. 12 dogs, 3 cats and a few pigs are very grateful to have such a dedicated hero to help them. In the mad panic John never took thought to his own well being and is now stood in the clothes he was wearing without shoes! And now homeless!

They are also Fundraising for Big Reds looking for another rural house to rent that can have kennels built by the charity and space for more rescue animals as needed.

A RESCUE AFTER THE STORM into the long grass, out of sight. I drove around searching for the best place to access the land she had run onto. I quickly parked my car, got a pet carrier out of the car, and ran through the high grass in search of her. After just 5 minutes I spotted her, and of course, she spotted me. The race against time was on, as it was crucial to keep her off the busy motorway and out of danger.

Meet Esperanza, a little kitten that survived the storm and crossed my path at the exact right moment, and was brought to safety. On Saturday evening I was driving on the N-332 in Pilar de la Horadada when I spotted a tiny kitten sitting on the side of the road ready to cross in front of the traffic. I quickly pulled over and went after her, but she ran under the barrier and

Running after her wasn't the safest option, but leaving her life in danger wasn't an option either. I followed her quickly, and soon she stopped and lay on the ground, where I managed to grab her, but she slipped through my hands. I followed her again and she froze in fear. This time I managed to get her in my hands, but not without a fight. She bit my hand out of fear, but I knew fear had taken over and she needed to be rescued as soon as possible. I placed her inside the carrier and we headed back to the car where I could properly examine her and check her condition. Her long silky hair was grey

CONTRIBUTION After the devastation of last week's storms. We can only really address that of our fifth human need, 'Contribution.'

So many people and animals need our help right now that whilst it is always important to look after ourselves, we must come together as a community. Nothing brings people together more than a crisis. When people and animals are hurt then most of us realign with our humanity. We forget about buying a new car, or shopping for clothes, or booking a holiday. And we dive into our empathy.

itself feeds our souls and we experience joy and happiness as we come together.

We feel gratitude for our own condition and as we experience gratitude from others we are able to help in their time of need. We experience vulnerability as desperation drives us to share our most intimate fears. And we grow in courage as we push through our limits. Contribution can be shown in many ways, for example, we can help someone with an illness or disability, we can volunteer for a charity and organise an event. It may be

Sunshine News • Friday 20th September 2019 by Nicola Farnhill Connected to Self

our choice to raise awareness through our talents or skills. Contribution doesn't have to always be at extreme levels, it can be a daily act. A way of living with the intention of helping or improving life. In history, we have some incredibly inspiring people who lived their whole lives in the service of others. Mother Teresa and Gandhi had their chosen religion's but their purpose was always to serve others. Because of this they became the most loved and cherished people to exist, and the most influential. When we observed

them in action we felt the love in their hearts and pure intention. Actions that cannot be faked or falsified. Their hearts and minds were open to everyone and everything. Through materialism, we have become segregated, some would say a clever tactic by the leaders of this world to line their pockets and weaken us. Because in numbers we are powerful, we can change lives, laws and possibly the world. As we learn to let go of our fears, to realise we are one, we can contribute to creating change for all.

Our hearts break as we witness the destruction of lives,homes and livelihoods.

Why not try to reflect on how it feels to do for others without expectation and how you can maybe incorporate that feeling into your everyday life. Maybe you have been thinking about volunteering or offering to help an elderly neighbour. Or maybe spending some time with someone in hospital who has no-one to visit them. Then know one thing - you will be valued, you will feel a deep sense of connection and that no amount of money will ever be able to pay for it. If you would like to help someone in our local area that has been affected by the Gota Fria, please contact local town halls/ ayuntamientos or charity shops in your area. Go to my Facebook page 'Nicola Farnhill’ and check out the 'Help' posts for various different people and animals, and also check out your local newspapers for charity events that are going on in the area.

We dig deep and sometimes even risk ourselves. Contribution is really about giving to a person, place or situation without any thought for what we will gain in return. It is a spiritual need and it is said that if we focus on it and also the last human need which is 'Growth' that all the other human needs of Certainty, Uncertainty, Significance and Love and connection are covered.

Sending much love, light and positivity.

When we contribute outside of ourselves, we become one with everything. The act in

DIAGNOSE EARLY SIGNS OF SKIN CANCER WITH YOUR SMARTPHONE As we get older, our bodies change. Not only do they change in size, but lumps, bumps, moles, spots and blemishes that weren’t there before begin to appear.

In most cases, this is nothing to worry about and just a sign that you are getting older, but if you are worried, it’s always best to check just to be sure – especially for everyone living here in Spain, where our exposure to the sun is much greater than when we lived in the UK. And, yes, for many, a trip to the medical centre or hospital might seem like a load of hassle – it’s not really when your health is concerned, but for all those with that mindset, why not start off by using one of the skin cancer-detecting apps featured below? When it comes to an early cancer diagnosis via your smartphone, the focus currently is on signs of skin cancer. Due to the easy integration in which smartphone cameras can capture, record, and interpret potential skin abnormalities, an entire market has emerged.

Leading the charge are popular apps such as SkinVision, Doctor Mole, and MoleScope, which all have similar protocols and features.

First, the user captures an image of their mole with the smartphone’s camera or enhanced lens attachment. Next, each program uses advanced technology to perform tasks that analyse things such as the Asymmetry, Border, Colour, Diameter, and Evolution (ABCDE) of the mole. From there, the image and analysis are saved so the user can track and record each potential skin abnormality. Where Reality

Technology

Meets

What should be made clear is that, at this stage in app development, a twodimensional smartphone photograph interpreted by a computer algorithm cannot replace a full skin examination by a knowledgeable and expert doctor. The other major drawback is the fact that these apps can give the user a false sense of security if a skin cancer diagnosis is missed or delayed,

leading to a lack or delay of treatment. Given the fact that the current accuracy is still not even close to 100 per cent, putting your health solely in the hands of these new apps could potentially prove to be fatal. The current consensus is that this technology, as it functions at the present time, can increase the awareness and body consciousness of the user. Working along with your doctor, increased awareness and the ability to track and report most certainly holds promise. Yet a stand-alone system to replace a qualified healthcare practitioner still appears far from reality. There simply is no shortcut when it comes to leading a cancer-free lifestyle. If you prefer the old-fashioned way, the ABCDE method of skin self-checks remains a timetested technique for spotting early signs of skin cancer. See the panel on this page for an explanation of the ABCDE method. For more information on the apps search in your device app store. for the app name.

Dear Ann,

I feel exhausted and unappreciated in my work. I work my socks off to and try my best at every shift but it just seems to be taken for granted. I have never had a pay rise in 5 years now and I am never thanked when I go that extra mile. The stress makes me miserable at home and even my family have noticed it, as it’s taken its toll over the years. I need this job, I need the money, so I am scared to leave, but it is really starting to make stressful and we begin to question me unhappy, what do you think our happiness with work, then it’s time for a true heart to heart with I should do? one’s self. Ann.

I believe that when the time is right to move on, a new door will open.

TIME TO GO TOPLESS This week marks a momentous anniversary for topless fans, as one of the most popular little sports cars with a cabriolet roof was launched on 20 February 1962. We are talking about the innovative MGB, which used a monocoque structure instead of the traditional body-on-frame construction used on the MGA and MG T-types, as well as the big rival, the Triumph TR series.

Despite the seemingly small size, the MGB didn´t lack power and boasted 0–60 mph in just over 11 seconds. The three-bearing

Papa! Check out the New Clio

1,798 cc B-Series engine produced 95 hp (71 kW) at 5,400 rpm, upgraded in October 1964 to a fivebearing crankshaft.

Safety was starting to become paramount in automobile design around the time of the launch and the MGB was one of the first cars to feature controlled crumple zones designed to protect the driver and passenger in a 30 mph impact, although the AA described the car as “much less safe than modern cars.” If you were more of a family driver then you too were in luck on the same day as Ford launched the Cortina Mk1. The chief designer was Roy Brown Jr., the designer of the Edsel, but was banished following the failure of that car.

Sunshine News • Friday 20th September 2019

The MGB, incidentally, was used by some police forces in its prime, offering a quick response to any incident, but it wasn´t the obvious choice for one group of law enforcers, as this week sees the anniversary of launch of the Flying Squad, part of the Metropolitan Police, who officially launched on 22 September 1921, following an announcement on 17 February that their horses would be replaced by cars. Times took a bleak turn on the same day in 1939 when petrol rationing was introduced in Great Britain. Brand name petrol was stopped and replaced by a national petrol pool. Fuel for commercial vehicles was coloured with a red dye to try and prevent it from being used in private cars, giving birth to the now infamous, “red diesel”.

SAN JAVIER

When Papa and Nicole first hit our screens in 1991 revealing their excitement of the Renault Clio, the compact car design was barely a year old. Now, after almost three decades of reliability & style, the 5th generation Clio has been launched. The previous version was released in 2012 and the car has a very loyal Spanish clientele who faithfully renew their cars over time, with the design being the number 1 reason why Spanish drivers choose the sporty little number. The Nuevo Clio arrives in Spain with a very attractive

design, where 100% of the exterior pieces are new, and it has a completely renovated interior. The new Clio also comes equipped with the latest in connectivity and with the new driving system, “Highway & Traffic Jam Companion”, which represents the first step towards autonomous driving, as well as a numerous driver assist systems. Safety is also vital and the new Clio has earned 5 stars from the EuroNcap organization, where it has also obtained the highest score in child protection.

THE TECH GUY WASHED AWAY As you can see, our regular Tech Guy column written by our friend at Blue Moon Solutions, Richard Cavender, is not in this week's edition of Sunshine News. We wanted to explain why. On Friday the 13th, Richard and his wife Liesl had to evacuate their home after advice from the police. This was due to the danger of flooding after days of torrential rain. They were only able to take their 2 dogs with them and had to leave behind their 5 cats. The rain did not let up all through Saturday and on Sunday disaster struck when a river wall collapsed and millions of litres of floodwater struck their house and completely destroyed their home. Everything has gone.

Their home. Their car. Their practical and sentimental possessions. Their 5 cats. Richard has found 1 of the cats, but the other 4 are still missing.

Richard and Liesl both worked from home and both businesses have now gone so they have no income. All they have right now is the clothes they were wearing on the day they were evacuated. The insurance system in Spain does not cover "Acts of God", and even though there is the Consorcio scheme, this could take many months to settle their claim. To make matters more difficult, Richard also suffers from Ankylosing Spondylitis, a painful, progressive form of inflammatory arthritis. It mainly affects the spine but can also affect

other joints, tendons and ligaments. Richard filmed an emotional video in which he surveys the area where his house once stood. "This used to be my office, this used to be my garden, and this is where the house was" you can hear him say. "We had my 50th birthday party here and our 25th wedding anniversary" he goes on to say, before realising his fridge is visible 30 feet away from what used to be the kitchen. Richard and Liesl are working hard to re-start their businesses and to start rebuilding their lives. The Tech Guy column will be back shortly.

15 There is a fundraiser page on GoFunMe. com which has been organised by Richard Foster to help them survive over the coming months. If you would like to know more about the fundraiser, visit www.gofundme. com/f/getting-rich-and-liesl-back-ontheir-feet

22 Last week, in part one of Daniella’s story, I told you how Daniella’s start to life was fraught with incidents requiring frequent trips to the hospital and hundreds of different tests. She was eventually diagnosed with Mitochondrial disease. This disease is incredibly rare, and its symptoms can include seizures, strokes, severe developmental delays, inability to walk, talk, see, and digest food combined with a host of other complications. Daniella needed specialist medication and equipment, much of which was only available privately - i.e. not with government help from the health system. I went to see the embassy and spoke with them at depth about Daniella’s condition. When speaking with the embassy I was told to do what any normal mum does & get a job and put Daniella into nursery (keeping in mind there are NO special needs nurseries in the area). I have been back and forth trying to get them to help but until she is 3 and can be assessed whether or not she

has a disability or not there is no help available.

Part 2

Daniella can hardly hold her head up. She cannot talk. She can only see me if I am close up as her vision is deteriorating. Mitochondrial disease is an awful incurable disease. We were told it is not likely Daniella will get past 2 years old, But we are holding hope for her but sadly we just seem to be getting bad news after bad news recently. We see her specialist in Valencia in October. We find the local paediatrician very difficult to deal with as it appears as she doesn’t have much knowledge about this condition, and it feels as though she fobs us off all the time.

super dangerous to go without food). Eventually, they managed to find a spare in Alicante and bring it down to Torrevieja hospital.

We all have mitochondria Mitochondria exist in nearly every cell of the human body, producing 90 percent of the energy the body needs to function.

The supervisor of the hospital actually spoke badly about me to the cleaner? Why? None of this was my fault and all I did was calmly wait and worry that my daughter wasn’t getting food and no one seemed to care.

In a person with mitochondrial disease, the mitochondria are failing and cannot convert food and oxygen into lifesustaining energy.

I had already been begging the week before for a spare in case anything happened to this one, but it seems to they are hard to come by.

We find ourselves selfmedicating, talking to support groups for info, and doing most things by our selves. She has physio 3 times a week.

Only this week we had a cleaner of the hospital throw away Daniella’s tube that hooks onto her feeding tube to be able to feed her, I only had 1 so this meant I could not feed her, the hospital just wanted me to get on with it and sort it myself but obviously, I cannot.

Life is hectic and I think the hardest thing about it all is how unknown Mitochondrial disease is.

The hospital only holds one reserve for another little boy that has a feeding tube, but not for Daniella.

Not only to people in general but to Doctors too. It makes it so complicated.

Daniella went 7 hours without any food whilst waiting for a tube, (with this illness it is

For many, mitochondrial disease is an inherited genetic condition, while for others the body’s mitochondria can be affected by other environmental factors.

My purpose for this blog is this to raise awareness for MITOCHONDRIAL DISEASE & to bring to light how special needs children don’t get the help they need or deserve.

The parts of the body that need the most energy, such as the heart, brain, muscles and lungs, are the most affected by mitochondrial disease.

It is so heartbreaking. I have a page for Daniella on Facebook, search for Team Daniella-sixx - Mitochondrial disease warrior to join the group and learn more about Daniella’s progress.

At this time, there are no cures for these disorders. More information from www.umdf.org

FURY BEATS WALLIN TO SET UP CLASH WITH WILDER IN 2020 Tyson Fury won a unanimous rounds with full sight in only Fury's dad Peter which Tyson points decision in Las Vegas against Otto Wallin but it could have gone very differently if it wasn't for the Mexican cut specialist in his corner on Saturday Night. The Gypsy King received a punch from the Swede which opened up 2 huge cuts above his eyebrow in the third round and then another later in the fight on his eyelid. Fury battled like a true warrior and fought for nine

and his trainer dismissed straight after the fight. 50 stitches were needed to sew up his eye which has led to a 2-month suspension from fighting from the boxing board.

The 6'9 heavyweight looked like he lacked a little power and speed due to his dramatic weight loss and his recent training regime with trainer Ben Davison which was recently criticised by

LAS RAMBLAS GOLF SOCIETY Results for w/c 16.9.19 Firstly apologies for no report last week but I had rather a lot of decorating to do. I won’t ‘gloss’ over the fact though that Nick Lee was ‘top coat’ in last week’s Joker Stableford with 45 points. ‘Rollover’ to Monday and it was Paul Brown, Benedicte Kruse, Annemarie Weisheit and the fictional Albert who ‘sealed’ victory in the counter game with a not to be ‘caulked’ at a score of 95 points. It was certainly no ‘whitewash’ for Rachel Lee in Wednesday’s Stableford as she ‘nailed’ 1st place with 38 points but only

on countback over Mike Mahony, (looks like he’s been reunited with his golf clubs then!) Joyce McClusky ‘filled in the cracks’ of the top three with 36. Showing some ‘medium grit’ Liz Robertson ‘dovetailed’ into 4th place with 35 points. Three of our members ‘hammered’ home a 2 today, Liz Robertson, Nigel Price and, obviously in his ‘prime(r)’, Nick Lee.

Our thoughts this week go to Andy McDonald who had a bit of a ‘light bulb’ going out moment and got his ‘wires’ crossed before the game started. Get well soon mate!

Por ultimo, John Dobson says to his caddy, ‘Please stop checking your watch all the time. It’s too much of a distraction’. Caddy replies, ‘It’s not a watch it’s a compass’. Pues hasta la semana que viene

EXCITEMENT BUILDS AS RUGBY WORLD CUP FEVER ARRIVES The very best in the world of Rugby will go toe to toe over the next few weeks on the biggest stage possible to try and name themselves as World Cup Champions 2019. The star-studded event will take place in Japan and starts today for six weeks and concludes on Saturday, November 2nd. The Rugby World Cup heads to Asia for the first time which has excited visiting fans from all over the world to experience a new country hosting the prestigious event. New Zealand are unsurprisingly hot favourites to win their third World Cup on the bounce

and the fourth in their history. The pure tenacity, speed, skill and focus which they display, will make them the team to beat in the 6-week long showpiece, but this year has a different feel and the gap has closed between the Northern and Southern hemisphere in International rugby. I personally feel there could be a new winner this time around and many sides will fancy lifting the famous trophy. New Zealand are joined in Pool B with South Africa. The All Blacks will face The Springboks in the opening game in that group on Saturday which will be one of the games of the tournament. South Africa are in great form going into the tournament and they will be hoping to capitalize on that and erase the memory of losing to Japan in 2015. Both sides have a tricky Pool B fixture against Italy and the Azzuri will be hoping to cause an upset against either side. Australia have looked stronger over the last 12

Sad day for football as Ex-Rangers captain dies at age of 43 after battle with motor neurone disease Former Rangers defender Fernando Ricksen has died at the age of 43 after a long battle with motor neurone disease. The much-loved Dutchman spent six years at the Scottish giants and had played 12 times for his country.

In October 2013 Ricksen revealed that he was terminally ill and had been diagnosed with Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (motor neurone disease). Since his diagnosis, Ricksen had made many public appearances and had openly spoken about the disease and desire to raise awareness. He even had a documentary made on Sky TV of his

life in 2015 called Fernando Ricksen - Hard Times. He won 7 trophies in 6 years at Ibrox from 2000 before moving to Zenit St. Petersburg in 2006 where he ended up winning the UEFA Cup in 2008 beating Rangers in the final.

months after a dip in form and you can never right the Wallabies off on the big stage. They are very well known as tournament specialists. They have always overachieved in The World Cup as they showed in 2015 when reaching the final. As far as the home nations go they all have a chance of going the distance and knocking the All Blacks off their perch. Ireland were looking the best of the bunch before the Six Nations but a disappointing campaign saw them lose to England and Wales and they didn't quite look the dominant force they were before the tournament but after their recent victories and form picking up just at the right time they find themselves as number 1 in the world. Outsiders Scotland are a team I think will perform well in Japan. Many may disagree after a very disappointing Six Nations but they did have a ridiculous amount of injuries and an inexperienced

side. Scotland are a tough opponent for anyone with a full squad to choose from and after watching their incredible 31-31 comeback draw with England which was full of flair and speed you can't write them off against anyone. Six Nations champions and Grand Slam winners Wales are 5th in the rankings but recently held the number 1 spot and have proved time and time again that they can beat any team around on their day. In my opinion, the pure physical strength and discipline make them real contenders. England have been somewhat frustrating to watch at times this year with their inconsistency and drop in concentration during important moments in games but had a solid Six Nations finishing second to Wales. They currently sit 3rd in the World rankings after some great performances including their last 2 warm-up Internationals where they beat Ireland 57-15 and then Italy 37-0.

Pool C won't be an easy ride for Eddie Jones boys as they do face two very respected opponents in Argentina and France in one of the most competitive groups in the competition. Manu Tuilagi could be a huge player for England with his speed, power and sublime offloads. England are as strong as anybody on their day and I'm sure they will be relieved not to have the expectation and pressure of the 2015 World Cup. It sure is set to be 6 weeks of thrilling Rugby in Japan but there can only be one winner. All games will be shown on ITV or ITV 4 so sit back, relax and enjoy.
