Image
A 25-year-old woman has opened up about her illness in hopes of helping others with chronic conditions.   Tessa Hansen-Smith has the rare condition of Aquagenic Urticaria, meaning she's allergic to water.   She developed the “water allergy” when she was around eight years old, and it has worsened over the years.   Tessa said: "I would come out of showers and have huge welts on my skin, and my scalp would be bleeding after showering. So, the first things we kind of did was, 'Okay, let's take away your shampoos, take away your conditioner, take away any soaps you're using.'"   As a little girl, she played, swam, took baths and drank lots of water like any other kid until she began developing mysterious symptoms.   Now, water causes itching, rashes and hives on her skin. If she drinks it, she can feel a burning sensation in her throat and body.     So, she drinks mostly milk because the water content is buffered by proteins, fats and sugars. ...

Although she 'really understood him on a visceral level' and believed their pairing 'could be something real,' Julia said Kanye ultimately didn't treat her the way she expected. 'I just felt like his little puppet.'   Julia said she 'went lightly' in describing her time with Kanye in the book, even though she didn't sign an NDA.   'I’m not signing a f****** NDA just on principle. I never have, and I never will,' she explained, before adding, 'Unless it’s a professional opportunity, then sure.”  She also hinted that she may have...

Lionel Messi 'could rejoin Barcelona on loan in January' if Inter Miami fail to make the MLS playoffs

Image
Barcelona are contemplating a move to bring Lionel Messi back to his boyhood team on loan in January if Inter Miami fails to reach the MLS playoffs.   Messi left Barcelona in the summer of 2021 to join PSG when the club couldn't afford to renew his contract. He later left the French club to join Inter Maimi in US.  Now, according to Spanish publication Sport, the LaLiga team is lining up a remarkable move to give Messi his chance of a proper send-off.   If Miami fails to qualify for the MLS playoffs, the Spanish team are considering a move to sign him on loan in January - when the European transfer window is open.   Sport says no move has currently been discussed with Miami but it is an option that Barcelona are considering. Miami is currently five points outside of the playoff places in the Eastern Conference with three games of the regular season left to play.
