Hello reddit,

Im writing this post about the NBA “star player”, Allen Iverson.

On the 22nd of January 2026, Alllen iverson came to Cavalo Prestige Melbourne to meet 12 kids who are battling cancer.

The experience was organised by Challenge - Supporting kids with cancer, and Allen Iversons management team.

My little brother who is 12 years old and is currently receiving chemotherapy for ALCL lymphoma, was so excited to meet one of his idols.

He came out to be extremely disgusted and disappointed in Allen Iversons behaviour, and so were the other familys.

Firstly, we were all told we would get to sit with him from 10:45-11:30am, and that did not happen.

He was in the podcast room until about 12:30pm and did not come out and apologise, instead his security did.

We were waiting in a downstairs room with his security with all of the kids, and his security told us he was “having a bad day” and didnt want to come out.

Shortly after, we were told to go upstairs to meet him, and we did not get to meet him.

He refused to allow parents in the room with him, which quite frankly is weird.

Once we were directed upstairs, we were escorted to the side of the room while he was doing a news interview.

We went into the day being told we were going to get balls/jerseys and anything else we wanted signed and to think of questions we wanted to ask him. That did not happen.

After we waited hours, his security firmly told us he is not signing anything at all, and we did not get to talk to him at all, he did not say a word to anyone.

We were lined up and all the kids got was a photo, and he did not seem impressed about that.

He had his hands in his pockets and did not smile or put his arm around any kids in any photos.

He knew the kids were sick, and still did not put any effort or acknowledgement to that.

Everyone was so disgusted in his behaviour, it was honestly so disappointing.

One of the familys drove 6 and a half hours to meet him, and the kids where so extremely sad in the end. He seemed to think he was better than everyone else, and it was obvious he did not want to have anything to do with a group of sick kids.

As parents and siblings of children with life threatening diseases, we are deeply disappointed in Allen Iversons actions and he needs to do better.

We’d had this dog 6 years, she’d had a litter of puppies, and lived a normal life (although we always noticed she was a little off). She had a seizure, so we took her to the vet. They ran labs and noticed her sodium was extremely low and kept her overnight. She was then sent to UC Davis where the vets were surprised she could walk based on her labs. After days of testing they did an MRI and discovered she had hydrocephalus and 95% of her brain cavity was fluid. All of the white you see in the MRI was fluid. Second picture is a comparison to a “normal” dog.

And her low sodium levels were her body’s way of keeping her brain in some form of homeostasis. They sent her home with instructions to provide lots of water and that was it. She lived until 12 when she started having regular seizures and we had to say goodbye.

Our weirdo medical miracle 🩷🐾

I (28m) woke up to a text this morning from my best friend (28m) of 21 years after he went no contact out of the blue 8 months ago. No warning, no explanation. Just gone. He stopped answering calls, texts, I’ve tried showing up at his house to see if he was okay with no response. Any effort of support or encouragement on my end, was ignored.

Before this, him and I would talk on the phone multiple times a week and we would hangout quite often. We never fought or argued or had any kind of falling out. So for him to just disappear was confusing and sad. The first few months I was extremely worried about his well being. He’s always been the type to bottle his emotions and not talk about problems he’s dealing with. So I was concerned something happened that made him shut down.

That was until I found out he was still talking to one our mutual friends who lives in another state the entire time. I tried reaching out to the mutual friend and asking him if everything was okay and got left on reads.

After about 5 months I gave up trying to reach out. I started to accept that he didn’t want to be friends. Whatever reason he had was good enough for him to throwaway a 21 year long friendship. I’ve been grieving the loss of my best friend ever since.

Then this morning I woke up to this text from him. AIO for feeling angry and sad and like I don’t even want to respond back? Not out of pettiness but because he dropped me with no explanation?

The police was called and the driver was not at fault.

Former Guardian, Rangers, DBack and Angels outfielder Kole Calhoun spoke up about Alex Pretti’s killing, ICE deployment in Minnesota, treatment of immigrants and the political division in the country over multiple Instagram stories. Very eloquently spoke. Worth a read.
