Best Aid - Part Five

Modern Tommy Shelby x Reader - Masterlist

Previous parts: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4

Summary: you are a young doctor in Birmingham. After a crazy incident, Thomas Shelby shows up at your hospital. You don’t know much about the man everyone seems to fear, but you definitely will.

Warning: swearing,

A/N: Comment and interact, tell me what you think! it means a looot thank you very much. Tell me if you ant me to tone down the medical stuff.

English is my second language so I apologize in advance for the grammar mistakes.

︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵

You were on your way to your brother's house to pick up your mom. You managed to buy a car, not with the help of insurance, of course.

"Hey, momma," you greeted her with open arms as she walked out the door with your brother, "how you doin'?" you asked, hugging her.

"Good, my love," she replied with a smile. She seemed well, with rosy cheeks and wearing a cute blue floral dress.

"What's up?" you greeted your brother with a hug, "how's everything?"

"All good. She's feeling a bit fancy today. Keeps insisting she's going on a date," he shrugged, and you smiled.

"Cute. I'll bring her back in the late afternoon, alright?" you asked, and he nodded.

You and your brother aren't super close. You get along well, but you're not best friends. In fact, you're not very close to any of your siblings. Over the years, you've all gone your separate ways, naturally growing apart. It's just the way life goes if you don't make an effort.

You took your mom for a coffee at the botanical garden and took a stroll with her. She delighted in a pistachio ice cream and was enchanted by the thousands of different flowers.

She seemed to be in good spirits, with some minor memory lapses, occasionally asking where this beautiful place was, but nothing too concerning. Nothing that indicated her Alzheimer's condition was worsening. she was at the beginning of the disease, you and your siblings discovered her alzeimer less than six months ago. You quickly pulled some strings and put her on an innovative treatment at your hospital that promised to delay the effects a little. So far it seemed to work, the disease was progressing slowly.

You both sat on a bench near an artificial pond teeming with fish. You picked up some seeds from the ground and handed them to your mom to throw into the water. Each seed hitting the water and capturing the attention of the fish brought a joyful laugh from her.

Something people don't talk about much is how some elderly folks, at a certain point, become reminiscent of children. They start to live a lighter, happier, and carefree life.

"How's your life, daughter?" she surprised you with her question.

"Good," you smiled.

"When are you gonna introduce me to that boyfriend of yours?" she asked, making you laugh.

"What boyfriend?" you asked, and she didn't respond. She gazed into the horizon as if searching for the answer, but it wasn't in sight. To avoid her getting frustrated, you changed the subject, "You know, there's a guy I thought might be interesting to pursue, but I've changed my mind, Mom. Too much work," you chuckled.

"Oh yeah. Love truly is a job. It takes time and a lot of effort," she spoke, returning to her normal tone as if nothing had happened.

"I know, I don't think I'm ready for that," you said, and she smiled at you.

"We're never really ready. And that's why it's so good. Imagine being ready for everything. Life would be so monotonous... so boring," her words made more sense to you than ever.

"Momma, you're so wise, you know that?" you smiled and hugged her affectionately “I love you”

“I love you too, honey,” she said giving light taps on your back.

During lunchtime, you took her to her favorite restaurant, not that she remembered that detail. After lunch, you headed to your house, and she comfortably dozed off on your bed while watching a soap opera, Ozzy sleeping snuggled at her feet. He liked her.

Taking advantage of her nap, you grabbed your patient records and began reviewing the files of the patients scheduled for your upcoming shift, as usual.

On the other side of town, Thomas was deeply immersed in the battle against the Italian mob.

He had found himself entangled in a war that seemed to have no end in sight.

Thomas Shelby, was known for his cunning tactics and unyielding determination, and he knew how to navigate a world where loyalties shifted like sand and trust was a rare commodity.

The Italian mob, equally fierce and calculating, was proving to be a formidable adversary. One that he should fear since they had no limits.

Just this week they tried a deathly attack on his younger brother John. That didn’t go well for the mob. John pulled a Houdini act and got out of dodge. Giving Thomas a small win or rather not giving a loss.

Now Thomas had to think about his next moves, but the only thing in his head was you and your fucking safety. He had put two men to watch you at every hour, 24/7. If you ate a fly he would know, if you hiccuped he would know.

He didn’t want you to pay for his mistake. He couldn’t have that.

But there was something more to it, something more to you that he couldn’t quite understand yet. In the middle of all the chaos in his life, you felt like a piece of the puzzle that didn’t fit. And it was driving him nuts.

"Tommy," Arthur asked, stepping into his brother's office. "We're ready," he said. Tommy nodded and got up to follow his brother to the meeting room, where they were about to have a family meeting.

"Glad to see you in one piece, brother," Tommy said, embracing John.

"Me too," John replied with a smile.

"Alright," Tommy said, taking a seat. "We need to establish a few things today. First off, personal security. Everyone's already got bodyguards, I made sure of that. Don't worry, they're paid not to be seen. Also, don't leave the house without letting someone know. You can either message the family group or someone directly. The Changrettas aren't messing around, and they want our blood."

"And whose fault is that?" Polly asked confrontationally.

"You really want to go there?" Thomas asked seriously. "Because as far as I know, the death of his father worked out pretty well for you, Poll."

"It had to happen," Arthur chimed in with the facts.

The feud between the Shelbys and the Changrettas had been brewing for a long time. They were at each other's throats over territory last year, though it hadn't yet turned into an all-out war. The Changretta patriarch had been growing more brazen and greedy, pushing boundaries with each passing day.

Polly owns a five-star hotel in the city center, and on numerous occasions, he would get drunk and create scenes in the hotel lobby. And it often got to the papers and her clientele would drop like crazy for the following weeks. His fixation on her, driven by an unreciprocated affection, only intensified the animosity

Last year's territorial dispute had been a warning sign, a foreshadowing of the chaos that was about to unfold. The Changretta patriarch's audacity had only fueled the fire

But the breaking point came when he attempted to assault Lizzie, Thomas's assistant. Yes, she used to be a prostitute in the past, but that doesn't give any man the right to violate her. Besides, Lizzie has been Thomas's steady affair for years.

Polly crossed her arms defensively. "I'm not saying I'm sorry for what happened. But it could have gone another way," she retorted, her voice sharp.

"It hasn’t, Poll," Tommy replied evenly. “ We need to stay focused on what's happening now. The Changrettas are out for revenge, and they won't stop until they think they've settled the score."

"Right," Ada chimed in, her tone serious. "So what's the plan, Tommy?"

Tommy leaned back in his chair, contemplating. "We hit 'em where it hurts. We disrupt their operations, cut off their resources.”

Arthur leaned forward, his expression determined. "And we make it clear that they'll regret messing with us. We won't back down."

“How do you plan on doing that?” Polly asked, armed crossed

“We need allies” he answered

Back at your home, your mother's nap ended, and she woke up with a contented smile. You put aside your work and joined her in watching the remainder of the soap opera.

As the afternoon turned into evening, you prepared to take her back to your brother's place.

As you were dropping her off, you were invited to have dinner at your brother's house. His wife is a kind and easygoing person, sometimes even more so than he is. Spending time with them was pleasant, a change from your routine as a single woman living alone and having solitary dinners with your cat.

When you finally got home, you noticed your apartment door was open. For a brief moment, you wondered if you could have left it that way, but the voice in your head quickly dismissed that thought.

Without any desire to find out if someone was still inside, you turned on your heels and dashed back to your car. The only thing in your mind being the safety of your cat.

Doing what any normal person would, you called the police.

You quickly dialed the police and explained the situation, your heart pounding as you waited for their response. They assured you they would send officers over right away.

Standing by your car, you felt a mix of anxiety and fear, wondering what you might find inside your apartment.

Within minutes, the sound of sirens grew louder, and two police officers arrived at the scene. You explained the situation to them, your voice shaky with apprehension. They assured you that they would thoroughly check your apartment and asked you to stay outside.

As you watched them enter your apartment building, you felt a sense of unease wash over you. Moments later, they returned, confirming that there was no one inside, however, they said it seemed someone had broken in. All your things were out of place.

They said they would get the security camera's videos and find the person behind this. And they insisted you slept somewhere else.

You went back to your apartment to gather a few stuff and find Ozzy. When you walked in you were startled. Drawers were pulled open, belongings strewn across the floor, and the place that was once your sanctuary now felt like a violated space. Your pulse quickened as you realized someone had been inside, rummaging through your personal belongings.

After some searching, you found Ozzy under your stove, the poor thing was terrified.

You took a deep breath, trying to steady yourself and ignore the rising panic. The police assured you that they would investigate the break-in thoroughly and advised you not to touch anything until they had collected evidence. "Just get what you need and leave the scene," the offcier said

Feeling a mixture of anger and vulnerability, you sat down and took it all in. You had no place to go. Yes, you could go to your brothers, but it felt like an intrusion. Feeling backed into a corner, you decided to rent a hotel room right next to the hospital. The hotel was cheap, but they had security 24/7 and cameras, which was enough for you at the moment.

The following day was intense. You had to do your rounds at the hospital but every step you took felt like you were being watched, and a sense of paranoia began to settle in. No matter where you went, the feeling of being pursued was constant, leaving you on edge.

You questioned yourself, doubting if you were blowing things out of proportion, letting the break-in get under your skin more than you should. Yet, every time you glanced over your shoulder or felt a shiver down your spine, you couldn't shake the certainty that someone was lurking out there, hidden in the shadows. It was a persistent feeling, like an itch you couldn't scratch.

As you carried on with your hospital tasks, the unease clung to you. It was as if a chunk of your normal life had been snatched away, stolen along with your peace of mind. And in your frustration, you couldn't help but lay the blame on someone: that man with those gorgeous striking sea-blue eyes. Fucking Thomas Shelby.

You cursed his name under your breath, feeling a mixture of resentment and a strange connection you couldn't quite explain. Whether or not he was truly involved, his presence had thrown your life into turmoil, first your car and now your apartment.

"Hey girl, you okay?" Jeremy asked concern etched on his face.

"Yeah, just a bit tired. A little paranoid," you replied, and he chuckled.

"Aren't we all?" he questioned, making you smile.

Jeremy had quickly become one of the most important people in your life. Your friendship was so genuine and light, something that brought you immense comfort. All you wanted was to spill the beans about what had been happening, but was it a good idea?

You soldiered on with your day and tasks, doing your best not to dwell on your life outside the hospital. By the end of the day, you felt so drained that it was as if you had worked three days straight. The truth is, when your mind is on high alert, when anxiety takes over, both your mind and body bear the brunt.

As you arrived at your hotel room and swung the door open, a man's figure seated at the foot of your bed met your eyes. With a scream, you instinctively recoiled, slamming the door shut with force. All you wanted was to run out of there, but before you could, the door swung open, revealing that the man was none other than Thomas himself.

"Fuck!" you exclaimed, pushing the door and, consequently, him. "You're gonna give me a heart attack!"

Thomas rubbed his chest, probably where you had nudged him. "You can be a real charmer, you know that?"

"Charm's not exactly my priority right now," you retorted, still reeling from the shock. Your heart is still beating a million times per second.

"What do you want?" you asked impatiently.

"Just checking up on you," he replied calmly.

"I'm great, can't you tell? Life's just great," you retorted with heavy sarcasm, slumping tiredly onto your hotel bed.

"Why didn't you tell me that someone broke into your place?" he inquired.

"Because you're the bloody reason it happened in the first place! Did that knock on the head mess up your brains? I want nothing to do with you," you stated firmly, frustration lacing your words.

"Look, I know you're angry," he began, his tone softer now. "But I'm worried about your safety. If you're being targeted, you might not be safe here. I can offer you a place to stay, at my aunt's hotel. It's secure, and you can stay there for as long as you need. No strings attached."

You raised an eyebrow, surprised by his unexpected offer. "I appreciate the concern," you said, your voice guarded. "But I'll figure things out on my own. I don't need your help."

He sighed his expression a mix of frustration and concern. "You're stubborn as hell, you know that?"

You nodded, a small smile tugging at your lips.

“Look, y/n. I’m not taking no for an answer. You are not safe here. It’s a fact” he said

“And why do you care?” You asked, surprised to see Ozzy climbing on top of the bed and snuggling up to you. He usually hides when people are near.

Thomas hesitated for a moment, his gaze flickering between you and the cat nestled against you.

"Because I've seen what happens when someone underestimates danger," he admitted, his tone softer now. "I've lost people I cared about, and I won't let that happen again if I can help it."

You were taken aback by his candid response, his vulnerability catching you off guard. It was a glimpse into a side of him you hadn't expected. As you looked at him, his expression held a mix of genuine concern and something deeper, a hint of regret perhaps.

"You can't control everything, Thomas," you replied softly, your fingers still brushing over Ozzy's fur.

He nodded, a rueful smile touching his lips. "I know. But that doesn't mean I won't try." he took a deep breath "If not for you, then do it for the cat. He deserves safety," he said, making you chuckle.

"Low blow," you quipped, stealing a small smirk from him.

"I won't bother you. In fact, if it's what you want, I will stay as far away as I possibly can. Just please accept it," he insisted, his tone earnest.

After some thought, you eventually nodded. "I don't want to see your face."

"You won't," he replied, his voice firm as if making a promise.

“Okey” you said giving in

Unbeknownst to you, Tommy struggled to suppress his own desires. While you were seated on the hotel bed, he fought the intense urge to sweep you into his arms. To just throw you on the bed and fuck you senseless. But he knew he needed to respect your boundaries, to earn your trust before making any advances.

After your last encounter with him, he noticed he skipped a few steps. He made you terrified. He made you fear for your life, and according to you, that was the reason you kissed him. And that was not something he wanted. He wanted you to desire him as much as he did you right now.

Your current vulnerability only heightened his need to keep you safe above all else, above all his wishes, holding back his desires for a future moment when you'd be ready for him.

At anyone who works as a doctor or with elderly patients--should you be correcting alzeimers/dementia patients when they say or recall things incorrectly?

#bc bestie and her family keep doing it and it seems largely unproductive #she just forgets and then keeps doing it #it just seems like theyre stressing themselves out lmao #and i dont do that when i interact with this person

Alzeimer disease and Crohn now find relief from These natural remedies

Berner Cookies weed and Backpack Boyz weed are two strains of marijuana that have been gaining popularity in the medical community for their potential to relieve symptoms of Alzheimer's and Crohn's diseases. Alzheimer's disease is a progressive brain disorder that affects memory, thinking, and behavior. Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation in the digestive tract. Both diseases can be debilitating and have no known cure.

However, many medical patients have reported positive effects from using Berner Cookies cannabis and Backpack Boyz weed to manage their symptoms. Reviews and testimonials from Alzheimer's patients have noted improved cognitive function, reduced anxiety, and better sleep quality. Crohn's disease patients have reported decreased inflammation, pain relief, and improved appetite.

These strains contain high levels of THC, the psychoactive compound in marijuana, which has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. Additionally, they contain terpenes such as myrcene and limonene, which have been linked to reducing inflammation and promoting relaxation.

Overall, Berner Cookies cannabis and Backpack Boyz weed show promise in providing relief for those suffering from Alzheimer's and Crohn's diseases. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before using any form of medical marijuana. v

@rightanglepro no no, it's a good question. With a boring answer.

The short version is - I'm just buying dietary supplements from a private company, online. Free healthcare exists, but private healthcare also exists in parallel.

The longer version is, yes, we do have free-ish healthcare in EU. Conceptually it's not difficult - in the USA, you have federal law and the state law. In EU, you have EU law, in this case European Medicines Agency, which supervises research on new treatments, and individual countries, which have their own laws and regulations.

In general, healthcare is mandatory, just like taxes, so a portion of your salary is taxed towards healthcare, hospital care, just like it is for unemployment fund, etc. (This is generally not seen as a "big brother reaching into your wallet" because we don't have fox news here, it's just a part of everyday life - every adult understands that brutto and netto salaries are different numbers, and it only takes a few seconds to google a calculator to figure out the difference.)

The details vary over different countries. In Czechia, you used to have to pay 5CZK per doctor visit ($0.25). Then they took it away because people were complaining. In Czech and Slovak Republic, it was common to visit your family doctor early in the morning, then wait a few hours through a poorly managed queue, and then get a variable amount of time with the doctor depending on your issue. (I'm sure that's changing nowadays though.)

In Estonia, you email, call, or book online, and get a 20 minute time slot with your family doctor, at no cost. They might prescribe you some meds. These are anything between free and a handful of euro, but still compensated via "Haigekassa", the universal health insurance thing.

You'll often find USAmericans come here and be puzzled at how well it works. I have at least one friend who used to pay thousands of USD a month for their meds in USA, and here they have to pay like... 5€ for the exact same medication.

That said, no country has infinite budgets - the weak point in Estonia is mental health care - it exists, but generally takes a 2-3 months of queuing for a psychiatrist, and Haigekassa (last I heard) only covers 5 psychotherapy sessions per patient. Private sessions cost generally 50-100€.

New experimental therapies take a while to be accessible - as they should. I read research about ketamine use for treatment of depression 10 years ago. A few years ago it was approved by the European Medicines Agency. A bit later, it became available in a clinical setting. And it's still 100€ per session for the IV drip version.

On the other hand, tDCS is now fully covered by Haigekassa, so you can get fully free sessions from your family doctor.

And to get to my case - digestive issues are still very hard to categorize. I'm not allergic, I don't have gluten or lactose intolerance, so the label I get is just "IBS" - which, while internationally recognized, is still just a codeword for "tummy hurty, we don't know why". Medical trials are a tricky subject, and of course you mostly get focus on well-researched and urgent conditions (alzeimer's, heart disease, cancer...), so either there's public health interest, or there's a company with a profit motive looking to register their medication.

In case of the company Intoleran, while I'm hoping they're going to stay profitable enough to sell their enzymes to me, they don't seem big enough to have the same leverage as Big Pharma does, and to register a medicine, they'd need both a lot of underlying research, a condition to cure, and a loooooooooot of money to go through rigorous trials to prove their stuff works.

As much as I'd be happy to see their enzymes being covered by health insurance, I also don't want the regulations to get lax to approve snake oil sales. Doing science is a slow and expensive process.

#healthcare #sorry that got long #rightanglepro #not queued

Woensdag 20 julie 2016

ja, dus nu is het zeker ik ben niet regelmatig in't schrijven.....

maar bon jij moet ermee leven, ik ni meer =) ^^.

Vraag je maar niet af wat ik op 18/04/2016 wou schrijven.

Want nu al weet ik het ni meer....

dus jij (ouwe ik :)) Probeer er maar niet aan te denken....

Hé... nu ik over de datum nadenk.... ik denk dat het de eerste dag van GWP was.... ja! nu weet ik het weer!:

-> het was de eerste avond van gwp. en ik wou iets in dit pracht van een boek schrijven <3.

maar natuurlijk wanneer je écht iets wilt schrijven weet je niet waar je moet beginnen.

Trouwens GWP was Supertof!

Until Wednesday toen de andere keidebiele roddels verspreidde dat ****** een racist was .... =). Bon ik weet niet wat onze relatie met ****** binnen een paar maanden of jaren zal zijn.... Maar ze is een kei goeie vriendin!!!

Alles wat thuis gebeurd kan ik bij haar kwijt!! En daarom is ze ook zo'n goede vriendin dat ik nu per sms ga zeuren over de ruzie's met mama of er onze Pauze's mee verknoei... ze luistert écht en geeft advies, ook al helpt die ni altijd.

het helpt toch enorm.... op een eerder morele manier. ik weet dat ik haar zoals de andere kan vertrouwe en da ik al men gezeur en gezaag kan toevertrouwen zonder angst!

(by the way, als je Alzeimer hebt als je dit lees Kheb het over: ******, *****, ****, ****, ******)

over Gwp.... tja 'twas echt te gek tot dat ik donderdag namidag een ongeluk had bij het mountainbiken

het ongeluk zelf kan ik me ni meer herinneren...... En daarom zal ik het ook nooit, maar ook nooit vergeten!!

grappig hé?? .... Ik zal me altijd iets herinneren wat ik me niet meer kan herinneren ..... =)

maar bon.....

Daarom zijn wij dus ook zooo fantastisch !!! !!! !!! !!!

ook al heb ik later waarschijnlijk Alzeimer . . . . . . .

~to be continued .~ . .

More secrets

I don't have a favorite band or artist. I'm pretty noncomital to my music artists. Artists at all.

I am addicted to weed.

i've gotten pickier as ive gotten older-

or maybe its a sign i know myself better now and won't settle.

I have some sort of complex... narcisism or something. (deeep self hatred self obsession loneliness etc) (maybe parkinsons or alzeimers).

I wish I could write more but my thoughts seem to far from each other now. It's like a sheet that's been washed too many times,

dirty and faded and stained with mothballs,

thin, now, barely construed

barely holding together

ok, that was a good metaphor. I still have it in me!!!

I'm grown now and haven't made enough actice decisicions in my life to be successful or good and that scares me. a lot.

Konya'dan iyiliğe koşuldu

https://pazaryerigundem.com/haber/173371/konyadan-iyilige-kosuldu/

Konya'dan iyiliğe koşuldu

Konya Büyükşehir Belediyesi tarafından düzenlenen “3. Uluslararası Konya Yarı Maratonu” 31 ülkeden binlerce sporcunun katılımıyla yapıldı.

KONYA (İGFA) – Konya Büyükşehir Belediyesi tarafından bu yıl üçüncüsü düzenlenen “Uluslararası Konya Yarı Maratonu” 31 ülkeden binlerce sporcunun katılımıyla yapıldı.

Selçuklu Otizmli Bireyler Vakfı (SOBE), Meram Down Sendromlu Bireyler Yaşam Destek Merkezi (DOSD MERAM) ile Karatay Alzheimer Gündüz Yaşam Merkezi ile birlikte gerçekleştirilen organizasyona; Konya Büyükşehir Belediye Başkanı Uğur İbrahim Altay, Selçuklu Belediye Başkanı Ahmet Pekyatırmacı, Karatay Belediye Başkanı Hasan Kılca, Meram Belediye Başkanı Mustafa Kavuş, Konya Gençlik ve Spor İl Müdürü Birdal Öztürk, SOBE Vakfı Başkanı Mustafa Ak, DOSD Meram Başkanı Mehmet Munlafalıoğlu ve Karatay Alzheimer Gündüz Yaşam Merkezi yetkilileri katıldı.

Kışla Caddesi üzerinde kurulan başlangıç ve bitiş çizgisinde saat 09.10’da önce 21 kilometrelik Uluslararası Yarı Maratonun, ardından da 10 kilometre koşusunun startı verildi.

“TÜRKİYE’NİN EN ÖNEMLİ YARI MARATONLARINDAN BİRİSİ OLACAK”

Büyük coşkuyla startın verilmesinin ardından maratonla ilgili değerlendirmelerde bulunan Başkan Altay, Konya Yarı Maratonu’nun her yıl büyüyen katılımcı sayısı ve enerjisiyle Türkiye’nin en önemli yarı maratonlarından birisi olacağını belirterek, özellikle yurt dışından ve şehir dışından gelen misafirleri Hz. Mevlana’nın şehrinde, Selçuklu’nun darülmülkünde ağırlamaktan büyük mutluluk duyduklarını söyledi.

Geçtiğimiz yıllarda Avrupa ve Dünya Spor Başkentliği ile İslam Ülkeleri Spor Başkentliği yapan Konya’nın bir spor şehri olduğunu vurgulayan Başkan Altay, “Birçok önemli organizasyona ev sahipliği yapmış şehrimizde son 3 yıldır Konya Yarı Maratonu’nu düzenliyoruz. Bu yıl geçen yıla göre neredeyse iki katı bir katılım oldu. Ben tüm sporculara başarılar diliyorum. Böyle etkinliklere olan yoğun katılım bizlerin bu konudaki cesaretini arttırıyor” diye konuştu.

KAYIT ÜCRETLERİ BU YIL GAZZE’YE GÖNDERİLECEK

Konya Yarı Maratonunu her seferinde bir sosyal sorumluluk projesi kapsamında gerçekleştirdiklerine vurgu yapan Başkan Altay, “Bütün sporcularımız hem sağlıkları için koşup hem Türkiye’ye sporun ne kadar önemli olduğunun mesajını verirken aynı zamanda iyiliğe de koşuyorlar. Selçuklu Belediyemizin SOBE, Meram Belediyemizin DOSD Meram ve Karatay Belediyemizin de Alzeimer Gündüz Yaşam Merkezi’ne sponsorluk gelirlerinin bağışlarını gerçekleştiriyoruz. Ayrıca bu yıl kayıt ücretlerini de Gazze’de yaşanan katliama dikkat çekmek ve soykırımın bir an önce sonlandırılması için Gazze’deki kardeşlerimize göndereceğiz. Ayrıca bu yıl tüm katılımcılara kefiyeler dağıttık. Sporcularımız kefiyelerle koşularını gerçekleştiriyor. Emeği geçenlere teşekkür ediyorum. Konya’nın bu güzel havasında böyle bir organizasyona ev sahipliği yapmaktan büyük bir mutluluk duyuyorum. Tüm sporcularımıza başarılar diliyorum” diye konuştu.

“MARATONDA BİRÇOK ULVİ AMAÇ VAR”

Meram Belediye Başkanı Mustafa Kavuş, Konya Yarı Maratonu’nun her yıl artarak geliştiğine vurgu yaparak, “Küçüğünden büyüğüne kadar hanım kardeşlerimize kadar herkesin katıldığı güzel bir organizasyon oluyor. Bu sene ilk defa DOSD Meram olarak, Down Sendromlular Yaşam Merkezi’ndeki öğrencilerimiz ve hocalarımızla beraber de katıldık. Aslında birçok ulvi amaç var. Hem otizmli çocuklarımız hem alzheimerlı yaşlılarımız hem de down sendromlu çocuklarımız için sponsorluk gelirleri var. Bununla beraber katılım ücretlerinden sağlanan gelir de yine hepimizin kanayan yarası olan Gazze’deki kardeşlerimize destek olmak için gönderilecek. Ben tüm katılımcılara Konya’mıza ve bu organizasyona destek verdikleri için teşekkür ediyorum. İnşallah önümüzdeki yıllarda daha da büyüyecek. Başta Büyükşehir Belediye Başkanımız olmak üzere organizasyona destek veren herkese teşekkür ediyorum” ifadelerini kullandı.

Karatay Belediye Başkanı Hasan Kılca, “Konya’mızda yine büyük bir spor organizasyonu gerçekleşiyor. Uluslararası düzeyde binlerce sporcu bu organizasyona katıldı. Konya’mız için çok güzel bir gün. Hepimiz iyiliğe koşacağız inşallah. Aynı zamanda sosyal sorumluluk projesi de gerçekleşmiş oluyor. Biz de Karatay Belediyesi olarak Alzheimer Derneğimizle birlikte koşuyoruz bugün. Aynı zamanda buranın gelirlerinin Gazze’deki tüm mazlumlara gönderiliyor olması da gurur verici. Tüm sporculara başarılı yarışmalar diliyorum. Bu etkinlikler artarak devam edecek inşallah. Etkinliği düzenleyen Büyükşehir Belediyemize ve Atletizm Federasyonumuza çok teşekkür ediyorum” açıklamalarını yaptı.

“KONYA’MIZIN İYİLİKTE OLAN YARIŞI BUGÜN YOLLARIMIZA DA YANSIMIŞ OLACAK”

Selçuklu Belediye Başkanı Ahmet Pekyatırmacı ise Uluslararası Konya Yarı Maratonunun büyük bir coşkuya sahne olduğunu belirterek şu değerlendirmeleri yaptı:

“Konya’mızın birlik-beraberliği, bütünlüğü, iyilikte olan yarışı bugün burada yollarımıza da yansımış olacak. Filistin bizim her zaman birinci önceliğimiz. O yüzden koşularda elde edilen gelirlerden Gazze’ye destek gidecek. İnşallah bir an önce oradaki sıkıntılar da son bulur. Burada aslında kazanan herkes. Yarı Maratonu Konya’mızın turizmi için de Konya’mızın kültürü için de çok önemli katkıda bulunuyor. Yarı Maratonu düzenleyen başta Büyükşehir Belediye Başkanımız olmak üzere tüm emeği geçenlere teşekkür ediyorum. Büyük bir organizasyon, ulusal ve uluslararası çapta ses getiren bir organizasyon. Bu tür organizasyonları düzenlemek kolay değil. Zor bir iş o yüzden bütün emeği geçen arkadaşlarımıza teşekkür ediyorum.”
