Every parent loves to celebrate their child’s birthday. It’s a day to remember the miracle that is your child, and looking back on how much they have grown, but also the love they continue to have for their child. Every parent loves to see their child’s eyes light up when they see the cake piled high with candles and watching them make their birthday wish.
For one family in Arizona, America, they had the most unexpected thing happen to them as they went to pick up their birthday cake for their precious little girl, who was turning 11. When they went to pay for the cake, the check out assistant told them the cake had already been paid for. The family was floored.
Then they saw the note that was included with their cake.
It said, “In honor of my daughter’s 10th birthday I have chosen your cake to pay for. Each year I do this random act of kindness because I am unable to buy my daughter a cake of her own. Today is her big double digit birthday. Please enjoy your day.”
The note was signed, “McKenna’s Mom.”
“I am unable to buy my daughter a cake of her own” Heartbreaking Gift
Kyle, the older brother, took to social media to thank the unknown stranger for this beautiful gift.

It’s reported that McKenna’s mom’s “touching and heartwrenching tradition began because of the MISS Foundation (A charity providing counseling, advocacy, research and education). She said the organization helped her to ‘work through her grief and be able to carry it differently.’ After joining the foundation, she began to perform random acts of kindness.”
The cake not only blessed the Arizona family financially, but also with a different perspective. “It did make it kind of a little bit extra special just to be appreciative of my younger sister and to really be thankful for what I have,” Kyle said.

Samantha Sage of Ipswich took to Facebook to rant about slimming world and stirred up mixed reviews and death threats
Sage said “Listen up fat ladies of the world if you really want to lose those huge fat thighs and guts stop driving to slimming world, you are trying to lose weight yet get into your vehicle and drive to your nearest slimming world, walk you lazy fatties, every meeting The car park is FULL. Use your brains rather than your stomach, eat less exercise more and leave the fat mobile at home. Free advice ladies feel free to share and let’s stop Britain from being fat and ugly, you are giving us ladies a bad name”.
Sage received thousands upon thousands of negative replies to her post, such as…
Emily Hart who said: “wow I’ve never heard something so rude some of these women may be disabled or rushing off to work straight after, you’re the ugly one with that awful attitude”
and
Thomas Colburn “so I take it you are a size 6 then? you could be the sexiest woman on earth and i wouldn’t touch you with a barge pole, i hope you break your leg and can’t walk and get so fat you need to be driven to slimming world”.
Even more shocking is lots of people agreed with Sage stating that slimming world was a waste of money anyway and agreed the only correct way to lose weight is to cook healthy meals and exercise daily.
One woman replied with “fat people make me sick, no excuse to be over weight it is pure laziness, amen sister”.
Sage has since deactivated her Facebook account due to backlash and threats to herself and her family but not before her post had over 10000 comments and 600 shares
My name is Marie and I’m 37 years old, I hit puberty at 12 and all was fine, the normal hormones, spots and mood swings.
At the age of 17 I had my first child and that’s when things went wrong, within a month of giving birth I knew something was different.
I was never satisfied, constantly moist and would orgasm with minimal effect.
Now this may be a husband or boyfriends dream to have a wife or girlfriend who is always up for it, but it took its toll on my relationship with my baby’s father and eventually he couldn’t take it anymore and moved out, he felt like he wasn’t good enough and couldn’t give me the amount of pleasure I desired.
I am constantly moist, I have to wear panty liners and change them regularly, I am forever embarrassed and worst the fact that my child grew up not wanting to get too close to me after i picked her up and her foot touched me down below and I climaxed, she wouldn’t bring friends over in case they found out about my problem.
I haven’t been in a relationship for years I have lost many friends and family due to my behaviour, sometimes I get so turned on I forget where I am and have to sort myself out, the urge just takes over no matter how hard I try to make it go away.
My clitirious pulsates and throbs, I am forever horny I have seen countless doctors and specialists, been on multiple medications and therapies but none have yet to work.
I am destined to be alone and shut off from people I am just hoping that when I hit the menopause it stops, I wish I could be normal, I wish it would go away, I’m fed up of being weird and only having online companions.
I have Sexual addiction or hypersexuality it is not a laughing matter and I wish they could cure me
I am the proud mummy of a three-month old baby girl called Ava Marie she was born three days late weighing 7ib 3oz but every one of my friends and family knows that.
I did not get to tell them though, I didn’t get the thrill and excitement of phoning everyone and announcing the birth of MY baby, I called and told my mother and my parent in-laws.
My sister-in-law was obviously told by my mother in law and then took it upon herself to announce the news over social media, even tagging me in the post so every single one of my friends saw the post, I called my elderly grandmother to tell her that Ava Marie had arrived in the world and she already knew, my brother knew, my best friend too, it is a complete anti climax when you call someone to share special news for them to already know.
The news I had waited to tell people for 5 years, 5 years of trying, 5 years of stress and worry that I couldn’t carry a child to term, 6 heart breaking miscarriage and my angel baby Samuel born at 23 weeks, all ruined by a thoughtless act.
My sister-in-law who is 27 and a mother of 2 decided to ruin my moment, my excitement and my news.
Once I had left the hospital and settled into a routine I confronted her and all she had to say for herself is she was just excited and wanted to tell someone, she didn’t understand the upset she had caused.
My husband didn’t understand why I was so upset, I guess only mums who have had their announcement ruined get where I am coming from.
So if a relative or friend is pregnant please don’t tell the world let the parents post what they want first, it’s their moment, their news and their baby.
Naming a baby is one of the most difficult things a parent can do.
You have so many things to think about and consider; what would a child’s nickname be if you give them that name? Will it go well with the middle name or the surname?
It can be an absolute mind field!
Perhaps due to these struggles some of these names are starting to fall off the map and possibly going extinct! We personally can’t remember last time we heard of a newborn baby being named any of these names!

My child will not be participating in forest school.
When I was growing up we never had Forest school and certainly did not need it, what an absolutely stupid idea but now nearly every school has this stupid forest lessons which encourages children to play in germ filled mud and grim all for a so-called educational purpose.
My daughter Amari-Rose who is five years old will not be participating, I spend thousands upon thousands of pounds so she can wear nice designer clothes and I’m not allowing her to ruin them in a class she does not need, not only is it expensive it is time-consuming finding the perfect outfit for my little princess.
Amari-Rose comes home from school with me every Thursday afternoon to avoid the forest school so she isn’t missing out on anything, Amati-Rose doesn’t want to join in any way.
She likes her expensive and very pretty manicured nails, she doesn’t want to get her hair extensions dirty or ruin her designer label school shoes.
I am well aware I could send in her Wellington boots but all she has are Hunters which aren’t cheap and no I will not buy a fake crappy brand to send her in with.
Amari-Rose is used to dressing in style and looking good, it boosts her confidence and she feels happy when she looks a million dollars.
Her school is demanding I send her to forest school even though it’s not exactly a part of the national curriculum but I will be standing my ground and not allow them to ruin my precious daughters appearance.
I honestly don’t care what anyone thinks about me because I know deep down they are just jealous of the way we look and dress and all the parents wish they had a daughter as pretty as mine
A grieving mum whose teenage son died after being thrown from a moped has warned of the dangers of taking to the roads on bikes that aren’t roadworthy.
Tina Richards’ son Kian Buckler was just 15 when, as a pillion passenger, he was catapulted from a 125cc scooter being ridden by his friend Brett Everitt following a collision with a car in Lunt Road, Bilston.
Neither boy was wearing a helmet at the time of the 29 November crash and, despite it being pitch black, West Midlands Police collision investigators discovered Everitt was riding the bike without headlights
Budding mechanic Kian was critically injured and tragically died two days later in hospital.
Everitt survived the collision and was later charged with causing death by dangerous driving, driving without a licence or insurance, and failing to provide a sample of blood for analysis.
And at Wolverhampton Crown Court on Monday (15 Jan) the 16-year-old, from Thompson Road in Oldbury was sentenced to five years’ detention in a youth offenders institute. He was also banned from driving for five-and-a-half years.
This is a tragic case in which two young lives have been ruined…it once again highlights the risks involved with young people riding motorcycles in a dangerous and reckless manner.
Everitt chose to do this without any regard for himself or other road users and ultimately caused the death of his friend Kian Buckler.
He will have to live with the consequences of his actions for the rest of his life and I would urge anyone who is tempted to get on a bike and ride it in such a way to think very hard about the potential consequences.
The driver of the car that collided with the scooter drove away from the scene but officers later found the Toyota Auris on a nearby driveway.
Checks on police systems revealed the 37-year-old was banned from driving until August 2020 and he was later jailed for eight weeks after admitting driving while disqualified, without insurance and failing to stop at the scene of an accident.
However, he was deemed not to have been responsible for the crash.
Mum Tina Richards said her son Kian made a “stupid decision” to get on the bike but said he would have steered clear had he appreciated its unsafe condition.
She said: “Kian always ensured he maintained his own bicycle properly and took great care of it. I know nobody made him get onto the back of that bike but he had no control over the way Brett rode it…and he would have avoided it had he realised its true condition.
“Losing Kian has left a great big hole in my life, which will never be filled. I miss his attitude, I miss his smile, I miss his presence. I miss him asking me for a bowl of cereal every night, I miss waking him up for school every day, I miss seeing him play with his little sister.
I will never get to see him go to his school prom, get married, have children of his own. I won’t get to see him open his Christmas presents ever again. His two-year-old sister keeps asking where Kian is and it’s really difficult trying to explain he’s not coming back.”
The judge lifted all reporting restrictions on the case meaning media can report the offender’s name despite him being a juvenile.
Jalena Gunther took to Facebook to tell others about the care her daughter received at The Stollery Children’s Hospital a 150 bed children’s hospital that opened in October 2001. It is a “hospital within a hospital,” being situated within the University of Alberta Hospital and co-located with Mazankowski Alberta Heart Institute in the Walter C. Mackenzie Health Sciences Centre in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Gunther said: I feel sick. The Stollery has failed my child. Emmy had open heart surgery 4 days ago. They hooked Emmys IV fluid up at 6pm last night. Emmy screamed in pain from 7pm till 4:45 am when she finally gave up and passed out. We asked for pain meds, we asked for a doctor at 8:45pm, and at 10pm we asked if the doctor was coming, we said we need something, this isn’t Emmy and isn’t ok.
The Nurse at the Stollery chose to close the door to our room and not do anything, no doctor ever came. Emmy was under close op care which requires the nurse to physically check her every 15 minutes. We were lucky if we seen the nurse 1-2 times an hour. Protocol requires IV’s to be checked every hour. Emmys was never checked. 3 different nurses came into Emmys room and all 3 missed it.
At shift change our new nurse came in to do her assessment around 8am. The nurse immediately found that’s Emmys IV went interstitial. She pulled it out immediately but the damage was severe. She is now in the OR having her hand cut open to relieve pressure, drain fluid and remove the dead skin.
Next week she will require another surgery to do a skin graft. This was 100% avoidable if the nurse did her job. Not only was protocol grossly neglected, there was zero empathy for a child crying and screaming in pain for hours. Her iv leaked into her hand for over 12 hours, causing extreme pain and severe damage. This is not ok. Since when did this become the world-class care the Stollery is known for?

A shocked mother arrived home in the early hours in March Last year to find her partner of two years unconscious on her nine-year old daughters bedroom floor.
Lachlan Nguyen of Port Lincoln, Australia aged 27 was rushed to hospital with life threatening injuries to his torso, hands and genitals.
The mother Alice Brown had to stay at home with nine-year old Mia, the police arrived to take Mias statement to find out what had happened to her soon to be stepfather.
Mia was visibly shaken and very tearful her mother said, Mia sat teary eyed cuddled up to her mother, Mia finally explained what had happened.
“Lachlan touches me, he hurts me all the time, he makes me do things I don’t like, things that grown ups do”.
The police asked Mia if she had hurt Lachlan and she replied, “no I screamed and begged him to stop, normally Barney is tied up back but I let him off tonight,Barney saved me”.
Barney is the families guard dog a four-year old Bullmastiff, Barney had heard the girls screams and leapt through the bedroom window biting Lachlans penis, tearing it off in the process.
Lachlan had tried to fight the dog off receiving bites to his hands and body, once Lachlan had stopped moving Barney released him and walked over to Mia for a quick cuddle before going back outside where he knew he was meant to be.
Lachlan was eventually prosecuted for sexual assault on a minor but his punishment was already dished out by a loyal and loving dog protecting his innocent friend.
Mia is getting the support she needs from her mother and school and knowing she has he best friend Barney to protect is the best.
Barney isn’t allowed to leave the family home without a muzzle on and isn’t allowed in the house but that doesn’t stop Mia and Alice from giving him all the love and thanks he deserves.
