KATE Garraway has said it's 'awful watching the heartbreak' in husband Derek Draper's eyes as he dreams about life before his Covid battle.

The Good Morning Britain presenter, whose husband has been in need of round-the-clock care since he contracted the virus in March 2020, has detailed the impact it has had on her 54-year-old partner.

Speaking on her latest documentary Caring For Derek which aired last night, Kate explained that the virus has caused problems for Derek's digestive system, kidneys, liver, heart and nervous system - and has left him with a “kind of heartbreak in his eyes.” Kate said: "Derek dreams about the ‘before’, and every morning it’s justso, so awful seeing him wake up, and the realisation of where he is. “There’s a kind of heartbreak in his eyes, every single morning.

You canjust see it. “It reminds me of when you’d have a horrible breakup and wake up in the morning, feeling all right - and then that sort of sucker punch ofremembering.” @font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.woff') format('woff'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.ttf') format('truetype'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.svg#') format('svg');font-style:normal;font-weight:400;font-display:swap;}@font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.woff') format('woff'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.ttf') format('truetype'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.svg#') format('svg');font-style:normal;font-weight:500;font-display:swap;}@font-face{font-family:'The.

4 GOP candidates for Pennsylvania governor set rules to join a debate
HARRISBURG, Pa. - Four Republican candidates for governor in the party's crowded primary race say they will not join a debate before the primary election unless it is moderated by a Republican who lives in Pennsylvania, eliciting criticism that they are afraid of hard questions.The four — Lou Barletta, Jake Corman, Bill McSwain and Dave White — issued the joint statement Monday night, eight weeks before the May 17 primary election.That prompted a response from Republican candidate Charlie Gerow, who suggested the four are scared of a challenge and said he is "not afraid to debate anytime, anywhere, any candidate on the ballot."Another Republican candidate, Melissa Hart, said the four's "diva-esque debate demands" are hypocritical for men "who will leap at the chance to bemoan ‘cancel culture' or ’safe spaces' if they think it will earn them a spot on cable news that night."The Democratic Party piled on, saying the candidates are afraid of "mean questions."The Republican primary is unusually crowded, with nine candidates filing paperwork to run, more than party leaders expected or have ever seen in a such a high-profile primary contest.The big field is the reason the candidates said they would restrict their participation in debates to ones moderated by a Republican who lives in Pennsylvania, who has not criticized the candidates, or donated money or endorsed in the race.Democrat Josh Shapiro, Pennsylvania’s two-time elected attorney general, has a clear path to the party’s nomination.

University of Guelph pausing vaccine, masking requirements May 1 In a joint letter, Laurier president and vice-chancellor Deborah MacLatchy and provost and vice-president Tony Vannelli said the high vaccination rate at the school is one of the main remains reasons they are able to make changes.“Community members should remain up-to-date with their COVID-19 vaccinations, including third and fourth doses, as recommended by public health,” they said.“Remaining up-to-date on your vaccination status will ensure your work or study is not disrupted, should vaccinations be required to access any of our campuses or locations in the future and/or the meaning of ‘fully vaccinated’ changes to include additional doses.”Should vaccination requirements be reinstated, the university will not offer remote or hybrid options for in-person classes for students who do not meet the vaccination requirement.“Failure to demonstrate proof of vaccination under a future mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy risks deregistration from in-person courses for students who cannot verify compliance,” the school said.The University of Waterloo said it will maintain a requirement for everyone to provide information on their vaccination status in order to minimize any disruption to work and learning if vaccine requirements return.The school said it will also not be offering virtual or hybrid learning options for those who are unable to attend campus.
