Horrified to hear what’s happened to my good friend Ran Fiennes. I’d like to tell the relevant authorities everything I know about the way he’s been treated. He’s the world’s bravest man, and he’s vulnerable. We must know what’s happening to him.

🌍 Drug threats move fast and across borders. Our response needs to do the same.
Today, the EUDA and the United Kingdom signed a Working Arrangement, marking an important new chapter in their relationship: euda.europa.eu/news/2026/uk-…

Update — 8th July 2026.
I just don’t know what to do anymore.
I have fought every way I know how for Katie.
I have emailed.
I have begged.
I have fundraised.
I have gone public.
I have stood in front of politicians.
I have tried to raise the money myself because my daughter needs surgery.
For 4 years, I have tried to raise the funds to get Katie to Florida. I hoped people would get on board and help us get her the surgery she needs.
But 4 years on, we still haven’t even reached a quarter of our target.
Katie is still waiting.
Still in pain.
Still without surgery.
Still without a proper answer.
This was 15th September 2025. I stood in front of Micheál Martin and told him about Katie. Days later, I was told the CEO of the HSE had been informed.
Now it’s 8th July 2026.
Katie has waited 15 years, 40 weeks and 7 days since her hip dysplasia was first recorded.
How much longer is she expected to suffer?
I am her mother and I will never stop fighting for her, but I am exhausted. Completely exhausted.
A 19-year-old girl should not have to rely on fundraising, strangers, shares and donations to get the surgery she needs.
This is Irish healthcare.

Something that is rarely pointed out in these reports is that the vaccine is also available for men that have sex with men. Also equally as important.

James Magnussen's racing comeback at the Enhanced Games
Despite using PED's he finished last in both his races and beaten by a clean athlete. #enhancedgames
3/3
Overall, the Enhanced Games suggested that PEDs are performance enhancers — not miracle substances — and that their effects are real but often less dramatic than public perception assumes.
2/3
Even with open PED use, very few records were broken, suggesting that human performance at the highest level is already highly optimized.
1/3 At the 2026 Enhanced Games, only one performance appears to have exceeded an official world
It shows that elite sport is influenced by many factors beyond drugs, including genetics, training, technique, psychology, recovery, and technology.
Delivered a workshop to members of the Southern Regional Drug and Alcohol Task Force #IPEd yesterday. Lots of conversations how these are emerging in different communities
