Police finds toddler walking alone who said she couldn’t wake mummy up

Police finds toddler walking alone who said she couldn’t wake mummy up

An off duty police officer made a tragic discovery after he picked up a little girl who said she was walking alone because she couldn’t “wake mummy up.”
The off-duty officer, who has not been named, was driving with his wife when he spotted the toddler near Trent, last Wednesday.

He approached her to ask her where she was going and she replied: “I am going to nursery. I can’t wake mummy up.”
The girl then led him back to her home in Shobnall Road, where her mum, Nicolla Rushton, 30, was discovered dead.

The heartbreaking details emerged yesterday as it was revealed police were not treating the death of Ms Rushton as suspicious.

Chief Inspector Steve Maskrey, from Staffordshire Police, has since praised his officer and said his actions showed police “are never off duty.”
He said:
“This is a brilliant piece of work by him that shows that we are never off duty. "The officer and his wife took the time to look after the little girl and stay with her until emergency services arrived. “Sadly nothing could be done to help the woman. “My thoughts are with the family and friends of the deceased at this difficult time. "The little girl is now safe with family.
“I must also praise the community who all came together and helped the police with their inquiries. Thank you.”
Nicolla's devastated mother Stacey Inchley was too upset to comment at her home in Stretton, Staffs.
Speaking outside her house, Nicolla's brother Anthony Rushton, 28, said:
"The family just needs time to grieve at the moment. "My mum is absolutely heartbroken and it's too much to talk about at the moment.
Staffordshire Police said they were called to the house by colleagues from West Midlands Ambulance Service after Ms Rushton was found, shortly before 11am. She was pronounced dead at the scene shortly after they arrived.
A spokesman for the West Midlands Ambulance Service said:
"An ambulance and a paramedic officer were sent to the scene. “On arrival, crews discovered a woman patient. "Unfortunately, it quickly became apparent that nothing could be done to save her and she was confirmed dead at the scene.”
A neighbour, who did not wish to be named, said Ms Rushton was very ‘quiet’, and added:
“She just kept herself to herself. “I am gobsmacked, I didn’t know her that well but from what I saw she seemed very happy and loved her little girl.
“She was the quiet type and it is just really upsetting. "It is so shocking when it happens on your doorstep. "It is just awful.”

Another neighbour, who didn't want to be named, said:
"I didn't really know Nicolla. She kept to herself but seemed happy when I said hello to her.  "I used to see her taking her little girl to the nursery up the road. "I'm so shocked about what's happened. I left a bouquet of flowers when I heard. "My heart goes out to the family. It's so sad."
A report is being prepared for the coroner.

Why a Regular Sleep Schedule Benefits Your Health

Why a Regular Sleep Schedule Benefits Your Health

The proven health benefits of a consistent sleep routine go far beyond simply feeling rested. Getting enough quality sleep has been shown to improve your concentration, memory, mood and energy levels, as well as helping with weight control, immunity and even increasing your life span.
But it can be difficult to fit in enough sleep between work, family and the rest of life. The good news is that your body has natural systems in place to ensure you get a good night’s sleep. Working with your own body’s rhythms can be key to developing a good sleep routine and enjoying the benefits.
The Biology of Sleep
The two main phases of sleep are rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep and non-rapid-eye-movement (NREM) sleep.
REM sleep is also known as “active sleep” and it’s thought to be the phase where the majority of dreams happen. It’s biologically more similar to our natural waking state.
NREM sleep consists of the deeper phases of sleep where your brain waves slow down and there is less evidence of dreaming. Many of the body’s repair functions take place during these deeper cycles.
You alternate between REM and NREM sleep in regular cycles throughout the night. Most slow-wave NREM sleep occurs in the first part of the night and REM cycles tend to become longer as the night goes on and closer to the time you wake up.
Where Sleep Gets Off Track

Love This? Never Miss Another Story.

Our REM and NREM cycles are largely regulated by our internal biological clock, also known as our circadian rhythm. This internal clock typically works on a 24-hour cycle. It oversees our sleeping and waking times as well as the biological functions that happen during sleep.
This is where the importance of a regular sleep schedule comes in. Circadian rhythms function best when you have a routine. If you have an irregular sleep pattern, such as sleeping in on weekends, it throws out your natural circadian rhythms.
Many health risks have been linked to irregular sleep patterns. For instance, the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism published a study that looked at 447 adults who worked outside their homes. They found that the participants who had a greater change between their sleep schedules on working and non-working days were more likely to have poor cholesterol levels, larger waist circumference, higher body mass index and greater insulin resistance compared to those with more regular sleep routines.
A Better Way to Sleep
When you establish a regular sleep pattern, it allows your circadian rhythm to operate at its peak.
An important function of your circadian clock is to ensure hormones like cortisol and adrenaline are released about an hour before you need to wake up. This gently prepares your body for wakefulness and you’ll naturally be ready when the alarm clock goes off. Some people who are well-established in a routine can even wake up consistently on time without an alarm clock.
Your body will also naturally move into a REM state before waking up. If your circadian rhythm is thrown off due to irregular sleep times, your alarm could ring in the middle of a deep NREM sleep phase. This has been shown to lead to greater grogginess that can last throughout the day.
This is also why hitting the snooze button on your alarm is not recommended. The short bursts of sleep you have in between the alarms will typically stay in REM sleep. These are not as restful as deep NREM sleep. They also disrupt your overall circadian rhythm and confuse your body further.
The healthiest option is to set a sleeping schedule and stick to it as best you can. This will ensure you get enough sleep and that it’s good quality.
Find a Pattern that Works for You
Each of our biological clocks are unique. There is no universal schedule that fits everyone.
In general, people tend to have three main types of sleep cycles.
Monophasic. This is the sleep cycle that we most often hear about. It’s when you sleep for one, continuous block of sleep. It’s recommended to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep per sleep period.
Biphasic. Some suggest this is closer to our natural sleep pattern. It’s when a person sleeps for two approximately 4-hour blocks of time separated by an hour or more of wakefulness. A total of 7 to 9 hours of sleep is still recommended, but there can be some flexibility around when you schedule your shorter blocks of sleep.
Polyphasic. This is a more modern approach to sleep cycles, where sleep periods are broken up into shorter naps throughout the night and day. For instance, the inventor and philosopher Buckminster Fuller experimented with polyphasic sleep in the mid-1900s. He took 30 minute naps every six hours, for a total of 2 hours of sleep per day.
This is not recommended for everyone, but it’s viewed by some as a way to reduce the amount you sleep and increase your productive waking hours. The Polyphasic Society has more information about different types of sleep cycles on their website.
Try experimenting with your sleep cycles and see which style suits you best. Once you’ve chosen a schedule, the most important factor is to stay consistent. The regularity of your sleep routine is what will help your biological clock function at its peak.

Warning Signs for Cardiac Arrest That Most People Ignore

Warning Signs for Cardiac Arrest That Most People Ignore

Do you know the warning signs of sudden cardiac arrest? Recognizing the symptoms, and knowing what to do about them, could save your life…or the life of someone close to you.
In the United States, about 350,000 people die every year from sudden cardiac arrest. Sudden cardiac arrest is when your heart malfunctions and stops beating. Although it happens suddenly, you might have symptoms for up to a month before it happens. Unfortunately, most people don’t take those symptoms seriously enough, according to a new study published in the Annals of Inernal Medicine.
The researchers studied cardiac patients and interviewed first responders and family members. They found that 51 percent had actually experienced warning symptoms, mainly chest pain. Of the 839 patients studied, some of the most common symptoms included:
  • intermittent chest pain (angina) and pressure
  • shortness of breath
  • palpitations
  • ongoing influenza-like symptoms such as nausea and abdominal and back pain
Ninety-three percent of those who had symptoms at some point experienced them again in the 24 hours before the cardiac arrest. But here’s the thing: only 19 percent of them sought emergency care for those symptoms. In that group, the survival rate was 32 percent. The survival rate for those who didn’t seek treatment for symptoms was only six percent.
Heart attack or cardiac arrest: What’s the difference?
As the American Heart Association explains it, a heart attack is a circulation problem, while sudden cardiac arrest is an electrical problem.
A heart attack is when blood flow to the heart is blocked. Most of the time, your heart doesn’t stop beating during a heart attack. Heart attack can increase your chances of cardiac arrest.

Fashola Explains Why Electricity Tariff Must Increase

Fashola Explains Why Electricity Tariff Must Increase
Powerline
Minister of Power, Works and Housing Mr. Babatunde Fashola, has said that in no distant time, there will be an increase in the in electricity tariff following the Ministry of Petroleum’s interest to build certain critical pipelines across the country.
He noted that these pipelines will transport gas to the power plants that will add another 2,000 megawatts to the national grid within 12-15 months.
The former Governor of Lagos State explained that the tariff will cover cost of transformers, transportation, gas purchase, among others.
Fashola said, “By far the most complex challenge is the problem of tariff. It is complex because it is more in the hands of citizens than in the hands of Government.
“The role of Government is to set the tariff and in doing so, Government has committed to what is called a Multi-Year Tariff Order. This was done in order to attract investors to the market; otherwise we will not have achieved the privatization if the price of the product is not attractive to the investors.
