A touching tribute was shared on social media by Rebecca Galea Luca, the wife of the late 28-year-old Jean Luke, who was found dead late on Tuesday morning. 

The two had gotten married four months ago, but their loving marriage was cut short after Jean Luke was found dead despite being a healthy young man.

As the cause of death is still being investigated, Rebecca shared a touching tribute for Jean Luke, recalling the last conversation the two had shared. 

Rebecca recalled how Jean Luke wanted her to stay home, but she had to attend to her work. His last response was ‘uff ok sabiha inhobbok’ (ugh, ok i love you, beautiful). 

‘How can I live without you’ she asked. ‘You always treated me like a queen and I literally had nothing else to wish for. She recalled him encouraging her about finding their dream home. 

‘I am at a loss for words. I tried everything in my power to save you’ she ended her post. The grief was shared by many people who are still baffled over the sudden passing to which no cause has as of yet been found.

 Called ‘Hobz Bakery’, the business is driven by young 25-year-old Matthew Mallia, who shared his ambitious plans for the bakery with newsroom ‘The Scotsman’. 

Mallia himself has lived in the UK for around 5 years, having moved to Oxford to finish both a Masters and a PhD in Edinburgh. However, his passion for baking returned after his academic plans did not shape up what he expected them to be.

The idea for Hobz was dreamt up during the pandemic, and he went on to launch the business in January 2021, starting by taking orders from locals. 

His partner in life Julianna is also in on the business and will be leading the coffee of the bakery. With an open plan bakery concept, bread and pastries will be baked all morning so that people can experience the freshest products possible.

Older people who sleep 5 hours or less at higher risk of multiple health issues

Older people who sleep 5 hours or less at higher risk of multiple health issues
Oct 19 2022 Share

A large new study has shown that people over the age of 50 and older who sleep 5 hours or less at night are at higher risk of developing multiple chronic diseases. 

The study was published Tuesday and took a closer look at a group of around 8,000 civil servants in the UK who had no chronic disease at age 50. 

Scientists asked the participants to report on how much sleep they got during clinic examinations every 4 to 5 years for the next 25 years. Those whose sleep was tracked at age 50, people who slept 5 hours of less a night faced a 30% higher risk of developing chronic disease. 

At 60, the chances increased to 32%, and at age 70 it increased to 40%. The diseases for which risk increases include: 

Diabetes, cancer, coronary heart disease, stroke, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, liver disease, depression, dementia, mental disorders, Parkinson’s and arthritis. 

Unlike other studies, this new study did not find that those who slept longer than 9 hours had health problems. However, few people in the study slept that long, possibly impacting the results. 

The study concluded that short sleep duration in midlife and old age is associated with higher risk of onset of chronic disease and multi-morbidity. in short, make sure to get a decent amount of sleep, whether you’re 15 or 75.
