We're often taught that interrupting is rude. But when it comes to suicidal thoughts, an interruption could save a life.

If you take one thing away this World Su***de Prevention Day, it's this.

If you think someone might be struggling, don't worry about saying the perfect thing. Ask if they're OK. Show them you care. Start the conversation.

You never know what it could mean to someone.

Cases of measles are on the rise.

So it’s important to be aware of the signs and symptoms:

· cold-like symptoms

· sore, red eyes that may be sensitive to light

· a high temperature

· small greyish-white spots in the mouth

· a rash made up of small red-brown, flat or slightly raised spots. This may be harder to see on brown or black skin.
