This is what 89 looks like: Widower says playing the piano, going on holiday and moisturising every day keeps her young
Josephine Loewenstein lives in Richmond, South-West London. She is widowed and has three children and two teenage grandchildren. WRITING THERAPY I was happily married for 57 years before my husband, Rupert, passed away in 2014. Since then, I have found it therapeutic to write about our life together. He was financial adviser to The Rolling Stones for 35 years, so it was pretty eventful! STRICT WELLNESS ROUTINE It's important to follow a daily routine when you live alone. Every morning, I have breakfast at 8.30am: two tablespoons of granola with yoghurt, or toast with marmalade. Then, I take the dog for an hour's walk. I also do ten minutes of exercises. Lunch is my main meal. Then I have a siesta from 2-3.30pm. I only watch TV after 5pm. Josephine Loewenstein lives in Richmond, South-West London. She is widowed and has three children and two teenage grandchildren DAILY PIANO PRACTICE Every day, I practise the piano for two hours — despite suffering from sight … [Read more...] about This is what 89 looks like: Widower says playing the piano, going on holiday and moisturising every day keeps her young
Mum’s cheap teeth whitening kit left her looking like she had botched lip fillers
A mum woke in horror after her cut price teeth whitening kit left her looking like she'd had botched lip fillers. Clare Clark thought she'd stumbled on a bargain when she bought the £60 teeth whitening kit, especially as she have it done at home. But the 42-year-old suffered a terrible allergic reaction to the treatment and woke up with a mouth so swollen so could hardly eat or talk. The univeristy manager spotted the deal on Facebook and, after paying £200 for two previous teeth whitening sessions, was delighted with the price. Clare, from Bristol, also liked the fact the beautician would come to her home, which meant she didn't have to find childcare for her young sons. But the morning after the treatment Clare realise something was very wrong when she woke with her mouth swollen and covered in blisters. She said: “When I woke up, I could just feel something was wrong. "I couldn’t even look in a mirror at first, then I caught sight of myself in a window and … [Read more...] about Mum’s cheap teeth whitening kit left her looking like she had botched lip fillers
Young people aren’t Stalinists – they just wonder what fairness might look like
A spectre is haunting Britain: the spectre of Stalinism. I don’t know if you’ve spoken to a young person recently – me neither – but if you stalk one or two on social media, a clear mental picture begins to emerge. I’m imagining earnest arguments in the student union about whether Lavrenty Beria was more effective than Felix Dzerzhinsky. WhatsApp groups brainstorming five-year-plans. Tearful scenes in the multiplex over The Death of Stalin. To you and I, it’s political satire. To millennials, a tragedy! To be clear, because the line between satire and sincerity is a little hazy at the moment, none of this is really happening. At least, not in any meaningful way, though one of the features of millions of people uploading half-formed thoughts online every second is that you can find evidence for anything if you look hard enough. Imagine what the NKVD, the Communist party’s secret police, could do with that! But the notion that millennials are … [Read more...] about Young people aren’t Stalinists – they just wonder what fairness might look like
Graphic photos showing what endometriosis would look like if it was visible
A MAKEUP artist recreated the effects of endometriosis in graphic photos to highlight the ‘invisible’ pain and suffering of the disease. Andrea Baines, 34, decided to use her skills to illustrate the “traumatic” pain of endometriosis, adding she wanted to create a “shocking” image. She enlisted the help of fellow sufferer, Rachel Berwick, to be a model after being tasked with a special effects project on a makeup course she was studying. Explaining why she wanted to focus on endometriosis, Andrea told Kidspot: “It’s traumatic enough for the sufferer to deal with the pain, without feeling like they’re lying about their condition. “It can be extremely isolating to live with a condition that nobody can see. “My pain feels like there’s a sharp, hot needle inside me, being scraped against my internal organs, and like my insides are being ripped out.” It took her an hour to apply the realistic … [Read more...] about Graphic photos showing what endometriosis would look like if it was visible
