She is 13, 3 years above the average for her breed, so I knew something was on the horizon. I look on the bright side. Had the break happened later, the cancer would have been worse, and she might not have survived the amputation. I've now had 4 months and counting to make those last memories.

And she knows it. Sadly, while the physical rehab is good, the break was due to bone cancer that had metastasised. So it's as much about stretching her to get the most of the time we have left as looking to the future.

Because he knew that if he waited to October or even now the smoke and mirrors that Hunt put in place around the budget would have started to unravel when the lack of money for pay rises would have become common knowledge and people would have looked harder at the rest.

They should not be allowed to hide behind religious dogma like a child hiding behind a parents legs when they are in the wrong.

This really should be simple for them. They've condemned the Hamas hostage taking & said Israel has a right of defense. But using starvation as a weapon has no place in lawful warfare. Both men should face up to the accusations against them and if innocent walk free.

I have seen, in confidence, the initial estimates for Powys. I cant share them yet, but what I can say is Rachel Reeves may have announced massive increases in council funding but is robbing Peter to pay Paul as they will be used to meet most of this pressure. Council tax will pay for the rest.

In Powys that £95k rise would equate to an increase in council tax of 0.1%. But it isn't just 1 care home provider. It's every care home, dom care provider, school transport company, outsourced service, and.. well the list is endless.

That is a huge admission and has to be a major safeguarding failure if you take it at face value.
