  • EXCLUSIVE: By Sherbien Dacalanio in Philippines A Filipino family is desperately trying to raise funds required for separation of their conjoined twins attached at the forehead despite the risk of them dying in the operation. Chiara and Charina, 7, from Roxas in Palawan, were born with craniopagus. The conjoined wins’ struggle starts with waking up and till the time they go to sleep. In between of everything, whatever daily chores everyone does is excruciating painful and difficult for them. From bathing, to eating, while going to school, they need to manage their heads that is stuck to each other sharing an artery. Sonia Nortega, 37, the mother of twins, says: “We conducted a series of medical procedure on the twins, such as MRI and CT Scan. Much to our dislike, the reports suggest that it will be a risky affair to separate Chiara and Charina. In the arterial studies there is clear arterial crossover and sharing between the twins. In addition the venous studies show a very robust outflow circulation in the larger venous vessels. There is also very poor central deep drainage in the veins.’ “But we have decided to go ahead with the process anyway. I am well aware that during the process we might end up losing one of the twins. If one of them gets cured and starts leading a normal life, I would know the other sister’s sacrifice was worth. I am positive and believe in the miracles of science. I wishes to send my daughters to better surgeons, who can handle the risk of this case and cure her daughters. My heart says that they both would survive the operation and would be able to lead a normal life,” the said 37-year-old mother of five. The Nortegas have three other children that were born normal without any complication and lead normal life. After the doctors told the family that the separation of the twins possible is but involves a risky operation, a local charity withdraw its earlier financial support. Now, the Nortegas are finding it difficult to raise f

  • *PREMIUM EXCLUSIVE RATES. NO WEB UNTIL 18.45 BST MAY 15* Here’s royal bride-to-be Meghan Markle as the world has never seen her before. An incredible collection of 60 exclusive photographs offer a fascinating insight into the modest and ordinary childhood of the American woman who has captured the heart of Prince Harry. In one hilarious snap, Meghan, aged just five, is seen donning a crown as she imitates The Queen at a birthday party in Los Angeles. In another photo she is seen dressing up for Halloween as horror TV hostess Elvira complete with a black wig and dress while only seven-years-old. At the age of six she is seen posing with Mickey Mouse and other cartoon characters at Disneyland in Anaheim, CA. Other photos show a teenage Meghan cuddling her father Thomas who will walk the 36-year-old actress down the aisle in a lavish ceremony at Windsor Castle. The photographs underline how Meghan’s life growing up with her mother Doria Ragland at the small two-bedroom, two-bathroom LA apartment is a far cry from the majesty and wealth of Britain’s Royal Family which will become her new life. A childhood friend said: “Meghan had the most normal upbringing you could imagine – but we always knew she was destined for great things. “Now she is set to live every girl’s dream and become a princess by marrying Prince Harry. “I am absolutely blown away that the ordinary little girl we knew growing up in a regular apartment in Southern California is going to be married to a member of the British Royal Family.” The friend recalled that curly-haired Meghan was just like any other kid growing up in the Mid-Wilshire area of LA and had friends from all races and background. “I think when she was growing up and around other kids she identified herself as African American,” said the friend. “Being bi-racial was never an issue for her. She didn’t know any difference and it was never a big thing for her. “I think it perhaps became more of an issue for her whe

  • *PREMIUM EXCLUSIVE RATES. NO WEB UNTIL 18.45 BST MAY 15* Here’s royal bride-to-be Meghan Markle as the world has never seen her before. An incredible collection of 60 exclusive photographs offer a fascinating insight into the modest and ordinary childhood of the American woman who has captured the heart of Prince Harry. In one hilarious snap, Meghan, aged just five, is seen donning a crown as she imitates The Queen at a birthday party in Los Angeles. In another photo she is seen dressing up for Halloween as horror TV hostess Elvira complete with a black wig and dress while only seven-years-old. At the age of six she is seen posing with Mickey Mouse and other cartoon characters at Disneyland in Anaheim, CA. Other photos show a teenage Meghan cuddling her father Thomas who will walk the 36-year-old actress down the aisle in a lavish ceremony at Windsor Castle. The photographs underline how Meghan’s life growing up with her mother Doria Ragland at the small two-bedroom, two-bathroom LA apartment is a far cry from the majesty and wealth of Britain’s Royal Family which will become her new life. A childhood friend said: “Meghan had the most normal upbringing you could imagine – but we always knew she was destined for great things. “Now she is set to live every girl’s dream and become a princess by marrying Prince Harry. “I am absolutely blown away that the ordinary little girl we knew growing up in a regular apartment in Southern California is going to be married to a member of the British Royal Family.” The friend recalled that curly-haired Meghan was just like any other kid growing up in the Mid-Wilshire area of LA and had friends from all races and background. “I think when she was growing up and around other kids she identified herself as African American,” said the friend. “Being bi-racial was never an issue for her. She didn’t know any difference and it was never a big thing for her. “I think it perhaps became more of an issue for her whe

  • *PREMIUM EXCLUSIVE RATES. NO WEB UNTIL 18.45 BST MAY 15* Here’s royal bride-to-be Meghan Markle as the world has never seen her before. An incredible collection of 60 exclusive photographs offer a fascinating insight into the modest and ordinary childhood of the American woman who has captured the heart of Prince Harry. In one hilarious snap, Meghan, aged just five, is seen donning a crown as she imitates The Queen at a birthday party in Los Angeles. In another photo she is seen dressing up for Halloween as horror TV hostess Elvira complete with a black wig and dress while only seven-years-old. At the age of six she is seen posing with Mickey Mouse and other cartoon characters at Disneyland in Anaheim, CA. Other photos show a teenage Meghan cuddling her father Thomas who will walk the 36-year-old actress down the aisle in a lavish ceremony at Windsor Castle. The photographs underline how Meghan’s life growing up with her mother Doria Ragland at the small two-bedroom, two-bathroom LA apartment is a far cry from the majesty and wealth of Britain’s Royal Family which will become her new life. A childhood friend said: “Meghan had the most normal upbringing you could imagine – but we always knew she was destined for great things. “Now she is set to live every girl’s dream and become a princess by marrying Prince Harry. “I am absolutely blown away that the ordinary little girl we knew growing up in a regular apartment in Southern California is going to be married to a member of the British Royal Family.” The friend recalled that curly-haired Meghan was just like any other kid growing up in the Mid-Wilshire area of LA and had friends from all races and background. “I think when she was growing up and around other kids she identified herself as African American,” said the friend. “Being bi-racial was never an issue for her. She didn’t know any difference and it was never a big thing for her. “I think it perhaps became more of an issue for her whe

  • The kids of a community marshall distribute bread to their neighbours delivered by volunteers to the community of Parkwood, a subburb of Cape Town, located on the Cape Flats, Monday, April 20, 2020. The majority of the people who live here are unemployed during "normal" circumstances. And as South Africa is now in lockdown due to the Coronavirus, many of those who had jobs have also lost their income. So many people are starving. The feeding scheme is a joint community effort, paid for solely by donations from the public to feed more than 3,000 households. The group is also receiving transportation support by The South African Red Cross Society. PHOTO: EVA-LOTTA JANSSON

  • A "Joy Market" in Jamestown, Stellenbosch, on June 16, 2020. Here people stood in social-distancing lines to pick out free, donated clothing. The market was<br />
organized by a joint Jamestown community taskforce formed in response to families in need during lockdown due to COVID-19. June 16 is Youth Day in South Africa, a public holiday that commemorates the Soweto uprising of 1976. “We responded to the call during lockdown. Our first priority was the kids,” said Arnold Okkers, executive director of Usiko, a Jamestown youth organization. When lockdown started, Usiko began by providing lunch for the 120 kids the organization normally looks after in after-school programs. “Within a week, it doubled to 250,” adds Okkers. The feeding scheme quickly grew to a joint community volunteer effort. The Jamestown volunteer taskforce and supporters have been feeding about 400 people per day here, as many people lost their jobs during lockdown. Okkers says they will be able to scale back the feeding scheme a little bit now, as people have been able to return to work during Level 3 of lockdown. “More and more people are able to care for themselves,” he says.

  • Llewellenlyn Welgemoed, 63, stands on a street corner in Gordon’s Bay, in the Western Cape, asking for food, Saturday, April 18, 2020. Welgemoed is a pensioner, who supports his wife and four kids. Normally he supplements his pension by working as a painter. <br />
“They call me Taliban,” he says. “I’m a qualified painter in Gordon’s Bay,” he says. <br />
But as South Africa is lockdown in response to the Coronavirus, he’s not allowed to work. It’s also not allowed to stand outside and beg like this, the police has told him several times, Welgemoed explains. The fine is R2500, he adds.   <br />
Welgemoed gets a R1860 pension each month. He is grateful for the money, but says it’s not enough to support his family. “I must buy food. I must the rent,” he says. “All my kids live on my pension. They’re still in school. I’m the only breadwinner,” he says. “My wife, she works at home. …<br />
“I’m glad about what I get from the government,” he says. “But here are six people at home and there is no food in the house.” PHOTO: EVA-LOTTA JANSSON
