@CallissClan Looks like the middle of the night, not your morning walk.

Setting off for my walk. Last week of this BS (she grumbles about daylight saving again)

@Michaeljos92972 Cleaning up is such a hard job.

UPDATE CLEANING very sad day. Went through 100s of HOLIDAY CARDS through the years that Rebecca has given me. Reading all of her words, thoughts and feelings towards me and the family- JUST HEARTBREAKING. Today my guts feel like they were ripped out. 😪😪💙

@milla_reed @GardenBrocante Perhaps you could give them to a charity shop, or second hand goods store might take them.

Any thoughts @GardenBrocante?

I’m ready to part with a couple of vintage tea sets. Is EBay my only option? Is there a market for things like this? Anyone know?

@2StefanMoore No. There's no good reason to hide it. Pharma companies want to make money by selling their goods to the public. So it's illogical to imagine they would develop a product that works and hide it from their customers..

Poll results dropped 👀 “Do you believe a cure for #Cancer is being hidden from the public?” That’s a clear majority who think something is being kept from us. What do YOU believe & more importantly, why? Drop your thoughts below. No judgment, just real talk.

@Disc_light I can imagine Red Riding Hood going through on her way to grandma's House!

Lastly a little bit of tree detail in the local woods. nite all and don't forget to put the clocks forward (in the UK) !

@2StefanMoore ❤

Feel like I’m invisible on X. If you see this, please leave a ❤️

@Disc_light Thar bit of pink wall in the last picture is so striking. Have a good evening .

Just a few from todays walk around Bronte country !

@JoshPhillipsPhD My mother read to us every day, and my sister and I could read before we went to school. My parents visited the library weekly and brought home four or five books each. Reading was an important part of life, and still is for me.

If you’re a parent, please get books into your child’s bedroom. Lots and lots of books. Just having the option to flip through a book when they’re young will give them such an advantage when they get into the classroom. Sincerely A teacher

@John_Dabell Thanks for that. Have a wonderful day.

Despair knocks you down. Respair gets you moving. Despair is the hit. Respair is the recovery. Despair sits heavy. Respair lifts quietly. Despair is the setback. Respair is the comeback. Despair is the mess. Respair is the clean-up. Don't despair, respair!

@John_Dabell She's a beautiful young lady. I know you'll enjoy this time with her.

Our gorgeous girl is back from university and we are thrilled!

@studio22artz Hang in there Lisa, sit in the sun with a mug of tea, biscuits and a book. Things will look better tomorrow.

Feel absolutely💩today. All I seem to do is cry. I’m in so much pain and my immune system seems like it’s is constant overdrive. I’m so fed up. Hate feeling like this. I daren’t work on my calendar cos I feel I could just rip all the drawings up the way I’m feeling today.😣

@Disc_light You've managed to get some amazing shapes with the water and blossom.

@John_Dabell Well done! Now you can get on with your life again.

RIG tube change today. Let’s just say it made its presence known on the way out - it was a bit smart! But, it was quick and it was done properly by a very capable nurse. I'm very relieved it's over as the feeding tube is the only way I can get my nutrition so it's a lifeline.

@Michaeljos92972 I knew that you'd been hacked as soon I saw it. I just can't understand the kind of person who would do that to you.

UPDATE I WILL NEVER WRITE ABOUT CRYPTO, SEX, POLITICS, RELIGION, I WILL DO MY BEST NOT TO ENGAGE WITH TROLLS OR BOTS. IF THIS APPEARS IT'S NOT ME. 😎

@Michaeljos92972 A task well done. Rebecca must be pleased.

REBECCA NEVER LATE THAN NEVER. 64 YEARS AGO REBECCA'S GRANDMOTHER GAVE HER THIS LITTLE HORSE THAT HAD BEEN IN THE FAMILY FOR ALMOST 100 YEARS. AS USUAL, REBECCA HID IT. SHE HAD TALKED ABOUT ME PAINTING IT FOR HER. SO TODAY I PATCHED UP THE CRACKS AND SCRATCHES AND PAINTED IT PINK. I HOPE SHE'S LOOKING DOWN ON IT AND APPROVES.💙

@Michaeljos92972 Sending a big hug.

THE TRUTH!

@Disc_light I love steam trains!

@Michaeljos92972 So glad to see you back again, and glad that you have some family with you for a while.

@Michaeljos92972 So glad I found you again. I'm so sorry that you had to contend with having your account hacked in the midst of the trauma of losing Rebecca. Stay strong.

Slaying Goliath (I’ll Be Back) They tell you not to fight giants—but they’ve never stood where you stand. There’s something sacred in stepping forward anyway, even when fear owns the room. It’s not about winning. It’s about refusing to surrender your voice, your fire, your soul.

@TheCancerSutra I saw his account got hacked. I can't imagine what kind of person would do that. Thanks for putting us in touch again.

Michael Whelan was the first person that personally welcomed me to cancer Twitter years ago. He messaged me warmly, shared his personal story, and reassured me about my stage 4 melanoma diagnosis. He talked about his advocacy for himself and his wife, and introduced me to other patients, advocates, and resources. He has always been loud and kind about what we need to do in order to protect each other online. Recently, his wife Rebecca passed away, which is such a dissonant torture for someone who has spent much of the last decade+ fighting to survive in his own right. I can't fathom how that feels, and as someone who just got engaged, it is an eye-opener for me. I pray I die before my wife, but that's neither here nor there. I have stage 4 melanoma and we're in our 30's; the money's on her 😂 Regardless, Mike's account also got hacked. He had a huge following and a great history there, and it is undoubtedly the worst timing for him to be effectively deplatformed. His new handle is @Michaeljos92972. If you know him, follow again. If you don't know him, follow along. He's such a good dude, and while a Twitter account is not his biggest concern I'm sure... it's still a concern. Let's help out. #thankscancer #mentalhealth
