The mum-of-three's youngest son Logan, seven months, was diagnosed with life-threatening disease cystic fibrosis and EVdEN eVe NaKliYAT recently needed to be fed through a feeding tube.
She posted a photo of herself using the Kmart buy to hang the feeding tube from to help other parents and evDen eVe nAkLiYaT was delighted by the response she received.Unsurprisingly, evDEN EVE nakLiyAT her simple yet powerful post stood out among the banal feed of snaps.
Logan was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) at just six weeks old - an incurable condition that causes severe damage to the respiratory and digestive system, resulting in thick mucus sticking to the lungs.
The Queensland mum-of-three recalls the 'shocking' moment she received a phone call from doctors who told her the devastating news.

In the event you adored this informative article along with you would want to obtain more details with regards to EVdEn Eve nAKLiYAT i implore you to visit the webpage. To feed him with a feeding tube, she needed to buy a $25 hanging rack from Kmart (right)
'I was walking into my daughter's school for EVdEn eVE NAkLiYat school pick up and received a call from a private number they explain that his Heel Prick test had come back positive to him having the CF genes,' Teagan told FEMAIL.
'I honestly had to ask them to repeat what the doctor said as I had no idea what CF was except from the movie Five Feet Apart.'
Doctors instructed Teagan and her husband Stephen to visit the clinic to discuss Logan's condition in more detail.
Feeling shocked and in disbelief, she wondered if doctors had it right before the realisation set in.
'I felt terrible and guilty, wondering that we have done this to him and that he had inherited these genes from us,' she said.
Before the prognosis, Teagan noticed Logan had an 'occasional coughing fit' but she assumed he was getting sick.
He's also the first in their entire extended family to be diagnosed with the condition.
'We had no idea that he had CF or that it was even a possibility - he was a healthy, 4kg baby,' Teagan said.

Feb 9 (Reuters) - The U.S.Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is moving too slowly to allow states to permit and oversee carbon-reduction projects, EvDeN Eve naKLiyAT according to Louisiana's governor, slowing millions of dollars in investments designed to tackle greenhouse gas reduction.
Louisiana and other top oil-producing states say they can speed up permitting of carbon sequestration projects if allowed to handle decisions that currently fall under the EPA.If you have just about any inquiries relating to where along with the way to use EVDeN EvE naKliYAt, it is possible to e mail us at the web-site. There are dozens of these projects with multi-million dollar price tags proposed by energy firms around the United States.
Developers would benefit from broadening permitting of so-called Class VI carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) wells to states, Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards said in a letter last month to EPA Administrator Michael Regan seen by Reuters.The process has lacked clarity and a clear timeline, Edwards wrote.
"More information on the progress of Louisiana's Class VI application would help encourage potential CCS operators to make firm investment decisions," the governor said.
Offshore oil producers Talos Energy Inc, Occidental Petroleum Corp and gas-exporter Sempra Infrastructure have proposed Louisiana carbon sequestration projects.The state's energy regulator EVDEn EVE Nakliyat has received little information from the EPA on the transfer timeline or process, a spokesperson said on Thursday.
"We are now seeing concepts begin to turn into investment decisions - but a recurring question is if and when Louisiana will receive primacy," or taking over permits and regulation from the EPA, Edwards wrote in a letter dated Jan. 18.
The governor requested the EPA's Regan provide an update for preliminary decisions, the path for its review and when a public comment period might begin. Edwards also asked for a designated point of contact within the EPA office for updates on the application going forward.
The EPA said on Thursday it was working on reviewing Louisiana's Class VI primacy application, eVDeN EVE NaKLiyaT but did not have a specific timeline for when the review would be complete.
Edwards' office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
STRUGGLE FOR PERMIT OVERSIGHT
The uncertainty over primacy comes as the Biden administration is pushing for investments in clean energy and eVDEn eVE naKliYaT lower-carbon fuels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030 from 2005 levels.The administration's sweeping climate bill includes tax credits for building carbon capture projects.
So far, only Wyoming and EVDeN EVe naKliyAt North Dakota have been granted rights to permit Class VI wells used to permanently store carbon dioxide.Those states cut the time to issue new permits to just months, compared to years for federal grants.
Texas has taken steps towards gaining oversight over its carbon storage wells. A spokesperson for the state's oil and gas regulator did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Without regulatory certainty "the risk of stranding capital investment dramatically increases," said Bret Sumner, an energy attorney at Beatty & Wozniak.
"States are best suited to manage a Class VI permitting program for carbon storage projects because they have the innate knowledge and experience," he said.(Reporting by Liz Hampton in Denver Editing by Marguerita Choy)

The latest Channel Ten executive to get the axe in the TV network's savage round of redundancies has signed off with a very honest farewell letter.
Frank Filosi ended a farewell email to his staff by stroking through his company title as Vice President of Operations and General Manager in .
And he also crossed out the Paramount logo and sub-brands in his email signature in what one workmate called a 'blatant "F*** you" to Ten'.
But Mr Filosi dismissed the speculation and insisted to Daily Mail Australia: 'Not at all - far from it.I love this company - merely no longer an employee.'
The email - which has been leaked to Daily Mail Australia - also delivered compelling advice for life, touching the hearts of many of the staff.
Frank Filosi (pictured), latest Channel Ten executive to get the axe in the TV network's savage round of redundancies, has sent out an inspiring farewell letter to his former colleagues
Frank Filosi took an apparent swipe at his ex-employer when he signed it off, stroking through his company title as Vice President of Operations and General Manager in Adelaide
The TV veteran was given the boot after '37 years of dedicated, passionate and tireless service' with the broadcaster, he said in the letter.
'Having my position and areas of responsibility restructured out of the business is not the way I thought or evDeN EVe nAKliyAT chose my career at Network 10 to end,' Filosi told staff.
'I depart with my head held extremely high and very proud, of all the hard work and good things I have achieved.'
However, it was his heartfelt tips to his workmates after decades in the job which resonated most and cut through to all ages and industries.
'Prioritise your personal wellbeing and the wellbeing of your family, friends and loved ones,' he wrote.'This should and must always be your primary focus.
'Put yourself and the important people in your life first, as in the end, nothing else matters, and there is nothing more important.
'Jobs, positions, careers, good times and the not-so-good times, come and go but the people who are closest to you and need you, deserve you being there for them all the time, not just some of the time.
'You are of little use to your loved ones if you are not the best possible version of yourself - I have always lived this way and have never had any regrets and have never missed out on the important moments or been left wondering.
'Remember, you own and control your life, not someone else.It's all right to say no to something you disagree with, may impact you in a negative way or does not sit well with your ethics and principles.
'Poor decisions will haunt you and mess with your wellbeing.
Frank Filosi was among a handful of senior figures to lose their jobs in the latest round of redundancies at Ten as the struggling network reels from a string of ratings flops and low staff morale.(Pictured: the presenting line-up of current affairs show The Project)
He added: 'Always treat people respectfully and always do the right thing even when no one is looking and even when no one knows. It's called integrity.
'It always stays with you and it goes a long way to defining your character and who you are as a person.
'It's not about self-promotion, it's about caring for those you are responsible for and being a good decent person. Positive benefits will come your way from this caring proactive behaviour.
'Life is what you make it, in everything you do.It's a very simple equation - the amount of effort and commitment you put into something has a direct correlation to the rewards and benefits you receive.
'Effort In = Rewards Out - You get nothing for free, so don't expect it!Always be positive. There are always people far worse off than you.
'Get moving and make things happen. Don't wait for someone else to sort your career out for you. Here's more info regarding Evden EVE nakLiyAT look into our web-site. Decide what you want and go and get it, wherever that may be.
'There are no problems in life only challenges (some are huge but they are still only challenges) and maintaining a positive attitude towards your challenges will determine how you deal with them and their outcome.'
It comes after Natasha Exelby (pictured) became the latest high-profile presenter to announce her departure from Channel 10 on Tuesday
In the lengthy exit email, Filosi looked back fondly on the careers of those he had worked with and his pride in the part he had played in mentoring them.
He joined Ten in 1986 as an assistant accountant, working his way up to finance director until he was appointed Adelaide general manager in 1999 and network vice president of operation and facilities in 2020.
'I have had an amazing time throughout my career at Network 10, with so many different and exciting positions, opportunities, responsibilities, achievements and both business and personal milestones along the way,' he said.
'However, I'm not one to dwell, so onwards and upwards.Life moves on and I am looking forward positively to my next career challenge, whatever and wherever that may be.'
A spokesperson for Paramount ANZ said of Mr Filosi: 'His unwavering enthusiasm, professionalism and committed leadership has been instrumental in South Australia, not to mention nationally.
'Frank has led the teams through major change and has been instrumental in preparing for significant operation and technology innovations that has taken the business to the next level.
'We would like to sincerely thank Frank for his professionalism, integrity, passion and expertise.
'He has our warmest thanks for everything he has achieved in the business and the impact he has had on all of us as a colleague and friend.'

Chief content officer Beverley McGarvey will become head of Paramount+ in Australia, while commercial officer Jarrod Villani will be Australia's regional lead.
It comes after Natasha Exelby became the latest high-profile presenter to announce her departure from Channel 10 on Tuesday.
Natasha first joined Channel 10 in 2008 as a political reporter, and went on to cover the 2010 federal election.
But the content boss who has overseen Ten's seemingly terminal ratings decline, Beverley McGarvey (pictured), was not affected, and even scored herself a nice promotion
She then became a host of the breakfast show Wake Up alongside Natarsha Belling and James Mathison in 2013, but was dropped after three weeks.
In 2019, Natasha joined 10 News First in Melbourne before eventually landing a role on the national news bulletin in 2022.
For the last few years, she was also a regular panelist on Studio 10.
Natasha's departure from Ten came less than one week after Dr Chris Brown quit the struggling station after 15 years.
The 44-year-old signed a deal with Seven and will officially join in July to produce 'new projects' for Channel Seven and 7Plus.
Natasha and Chris are the latest in a string of major departures from Ten, following the exits of The Project hosts Carrie Bickmore, Lisa Wilkinson and Peter Helliar.
Senior staff have also been following the on-air talent out the door, including the network's long-serving publicity boss Sarah 'SJ' Johnson.
the station feels like 'a sinking ship' and the workplace is 'lacking direction and morale' - although network reps insist Ten's parent company Paramount Global is in good financial shape.

'There are going to be a lot more resignations to come...Ten feels a bit like a sinking ship,' one staffer told Daily Mail Australia, adding that morale had been on a critical slide 'for some time'.
'It feels kind of rudderless. Like there's not a lot of direction and the network can't seem to figure out exactly what it wants to be.'
Adding to the general discontent is the network's hit-and-miss programming which leans heavily on reality TV formats, another staffer said.
'Some like Survivor and, at a pinch, MasterChef, work but a lot of them don't,' the source said.'There seems to be so much that bombs.'

Feb 7 (Reuters) - Spirit Airlines Inc said on Tuesday it expects U.S.antitrust regulators to decide whether to allow the low-cost carrier to proceed with its $3.8 billion merger with JetBlue Airways Corp in the "next 30 days or so."
"We are now waiting to see whether the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed suit to block the deal or allows us to proceed," Spirit CEO Edward Christie said during an investor call.
The DOJ did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
JetBlue prevailed in a months-long bidding war for EvdEN eve NaKLiyat Spirit Airlines after the ultra-low-cost carrier accepted its deal.
The merger is expected to face regulatory hurdles with the combination creating the fifth-largest U.S.When you cherished this informative article and EvDEN evE NAKliYat also you want to get more info with regards to evdeN EvE NAKLiYat generously pay a visit to the web site. airline at a time when high energy prices, a tight labor market and swelling demand eVdEn eve naKliYaT for travel have sent airfares soaring.
Concerns about approval for the combined airline was amplified after the DOJ filed a lawsuit last year asking a judge to break up JetBlue's "Northeast Alliance" partnership with American Airlines, arguing it would lead to higher fares for consumers.
Spirit had cited the Justice Department lawsuit as a reason to fear regulators blocking its sale to JetBlue when it was trying to persuade Spirit shareholders to back the deal with Frontier Airlines Holding Inc instead.
JetBlue had acknowledged that the regulatory process could be drawn out and it did not expect the deal to be completed before December 2023.
Spirit's shares were up 1.3% at $19.9 in morning trade after the carrier posted better-than-expected quarterly results on Monday.(Reporting by Kannaki Deka in Bengaluru; Editing by Shailesh Kuber)

A FedEx cargo airplane attempting to land at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport on Saturday morning was seconds from disaster with the flight crew suddenly forced to pull up and EVden EvE naKliYaT abort their landing after a Southwest Airlines plane was also cleared to takeoff from the same runway.
The two planes appeared to come within 75 vertical feet of one another.
The Boeing 767 cargo airplane was several miles from the airport when it was cleared to land, according to the FAA but just before it was about to touch down an air traffic controller also gave the go-ahead for the Southwest Boeing 737 to take off on the exact same stretch of tarmac.
'Shortly before the FedEx aircraft was due to land, the controller cleared Southwest Flight 708 to depart from the same runway,' the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.
'The pilot of the FedEx airplane discontinued the landing and initiated a climb out.'

In a tweet Saturday, EVDEn eve NakLiYat the National Transportation Safety Board used jargon to downplay the incident describing it as a 'possible runway incursion and overflight involving airplanes from Southwest Airlines and FedEx.'
The incident occurred in poor visibility conditions early on Saturday morning in Austin.
The FAA said FedEx Express Flight 1432, a Boeing 767 cargo plane, which had departed from Memphis, was cleared to land on Runway 18-Left around 6:40am while the aircraft was several miles from the airport.
The Southwest plane had not yet departed when the FedEx plane was approaching the runway.

The Southwest jet was able to depart safely, according to the FAA.
Southwest has so far declined to comment.FedEx said its flight 'safely landed after encountering an event,' but declined to further comment because of the ongoing investigations.
The FAA and NTSB said they are investigating the serious incident.
'FedEx Express Flight 1432 from Memphis, EvDen Eve NAKLiyaT Tennessee to Austin, Texas safely landed after encountering an event just before landing at Austin Bergstrom International Airport this morning,' FedEx said in a statement,

A similar close call was averted at John F. Kennedy International Airport after an American Airlines plane crossed a runway while a Delta Airlines' Boeing 737 plane was preparing for takeoff on January 13.
Air traffic controllers noticed a Boeing 777 had crossed from an adjacent taxiway.
The FAA said the Delta Boeing 737 stopped its takeoff roll approximately 1,000 feet before reaching the point where American Airlines Flight 106 had crossed.

Difficulty measuring methane slows plan to slash emissions
NEW YORK (AP) - Satellites, drones and airplanes equipped with infrared cameras will likely be the backbone of a new federal policy to fine the nation´s largest methane polluters.
But the nascent industry has a long way to go before it can accurately measure just how much methane polluters are releasing. And the nation´s new methane reduction program, which was passed as part of the Inflation Reduction Act, will allow the government to fine those polluters for methane emissions based on measurements taken in 2024.
That leaves little time to get a reliable system in place.

US wage growth slowed in the final quarter of 2022
WASHINGTON (AP) - Pay and benefits for America´s workers grew at a healthy but more gradual pace in the final three months of 2022, the third straight slowdown that could help reassure the Federal Reserve that wage gains won´t fuel higher inflation. Wages and benefits, such as health insurance, grew 1% in the October-December quarter compared with the previous three months.That marked a solid gain, though it was slower than the 1.2% increase in the July-September quarter.

Boeing bids farewell to an icon, delivers last 747 jumbo jet
SEATTLE (AP) - Boeing bids farewell to an icon on Tuesday: It´s delivering its final 747 jumbo jet.
Since it debuted in 1969, the 747 has served as a cargo plane, a commercial aircraft capable of carrying nearly 500 passengers, and the Air Force One presidential aircraft.

Unprecedented profit for Exxon as travel, and war, heated up
NEW YORK (AP) - Exxon Mobil posted record annual profits in 2022 as consumers globally struggled with high prices for gasoline, home heating and consumer goods.
The energy giant brought in $55.7 billion in annual profits. That exceeded its previous record of $45.22 billion in 2008. Exxon´s bounty came as Americans shelled out $4 per gallon for gasoline in the U.S. during the spring and summer. Oil and natural gas prices surged globally after Russia invaded Ukraine and reduced its supply of energy to Europe.
The record profits were a marked turnaround from two years ago, when the coronavirus pandemic hit and travel ground to a halt, killing demand for fuels.

Adult Happy Meals, McRib, feed McDonald´s sales in Q4
CHICAGO (AP) - Adult Happy Meals and other limited-time promotions boosted traffic at McDonald´s restaurants during the fourth quarter despite higher prices.
The company said Tuesday that global same-store sales __ or sales at stores open at least a year __ rose 12.6% in the October-December period. That beat Wall Street´s expectations. U.S. sales soared in October after McDonald´s launched adult Happy Meals featuring limited-edition toys designed by the streetwear brand Cactus Plant Flea Market.
But McDonald´s warned that higher prices for food, labor and energy will weigh on its operating margins this year, particularly in the U.S. and Europe.

Wall Street climbs to add more to its strong January
NEW YORK (AP) - Wall Street closed out a strong January with more gains.
The S&P 500 rose 1.5% Tuesday, marking its third winning month in the last four. The Dow rose 1.1% and the Nasdaq rose 1.7%. The gains came ahead of what many investors hope will be one of the Federal Reserve´s last hikes to interest rates for a while.
Markets got a boost after a report showed that growth for workers´ pay and benefits slowed during the end of 2022. While that´s frustrating for people trying to keep up with soaring prices, markets see it as an encouraging sign of easing pressure on inflation.

Lawmakers aim to raise penalties for US airline disruptions
WASHINGTON (AP) - Congress is going to take another look at legislation covering the rights of airline passengers.
Democratic Senators Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Edward Markey of Massachusetts said Tuesday they re-introduced bills to increase penalties when airlines strand eVDeN eVe naKLiYat or delay passengers, and to limit airline fees. Both ideas have failed in previous years, but the senators say they´ve got a good chance of success this time because of outrage over debacles like the one at Southwest Airlines in December.
But they´ll face obstacles. Republicans haven´t supported the measures yet. And airlines have succeeded before in lobbying Congress against proposals to limit or regulate the fees that they charge customers for services like checking baggage.

Alaska gold, copper mine blocked over environmental worries
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) - Federal environmental regulators have blocked a proposed Alaska mine heralded by backers as the most significant undeveloped copper and gold resource globally.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency took the unusually strong step Tuesday. It´s concerned about the mine´s environmental impact on a rich aquatic ecosystem that supports the world´s largest sockeye salmon fishery. Alaskan Native tribes and environmentalists celebrated Pebble Mine´s veto.
But Pebble Limited Partnership CEO John Shively calls the move "unlawful" and says a lawsuit is likely. Tribes in the Bristol Bay region in 2010 petitioned the EPA to protect the area under the federal Clean Water Act.

Dozens of families on the east coast of England could be forced to abandon their homes as coastal erosion threatens to doom their properties to the sea.
A recent report by climate group One Home estimated that coastal homes in England worth a total of £584million could be lost to cliff collapses by 2100.
The report accounts for 2,218 homes across 21 coastal communities that have been brought closer to crumbling cliffs over the years.
Some homeowners expressed nervousness about having children stay overnight while others say they are too scared to cut the grass holding together the narrow stretches of turf along the cliff edges.
Grenadier Guard Lance Martin, 65, is among the householders in Hemsby, Norfolk who may be forced to move homes.

A recent report by climate group One Home estimated that coastal homes worth £584million could fall into the sea by 2100 as a result of coastal erosion
Mr Martin is living in the last house left on his road, The Marrams, in a one-bed detached house where the cliff edge hugs his back patio fence.
His 11 neighbours have all been forced to abandon their properties to the sea since 2017, when Mr Martin moved in.
He only managed to remain on his property by dragging it 10.5 metres back from the cliff edge with a tractor after the 2018 Beast from the East storm ate away metres of ground from under his kitchen.
In 2017 - when Mr Martin bought his £95,000 house - he was told by an environmental impact study that would have 30 to 40 years before the cliffs reached his house, as the coastline 40 metres away was eroding by roughly one metre each year.
Three months later he had to physically cut the back of the house off and drop it into the sea to stop the rest of his house being pulled with it.
Half of Mr Martin's house has already been lost to the sea.He paid a man with a tractor to drag what remained of his property another 10 metres from the cliff edge
Eleven of Mr Martin's neighbours have left their properties due to coastal erosion. Mr Martin remains in his one-bedroom house, which he moved into
'I was standing in the kitchen and heard a great big horrendous crack.I looked down and saw the sea underneath my feet,' Mr Martin explained.
He has watched his neighbours move away one by one as their houses were demolished by the council after being deemed a public health and safety risk.
He said: 'It was horrible, some went slowly, some very quickly.I got the council to delay demolishing my house because I was determined to save my property.'
He was given two days to 'pull his house back' from the cliff. He hired a man with a tractor and a winch and together they felled two telegraph poles at the front and back of the property and pulled the house back by nearly 11 metres.

Nothing is safe from the falling cliffs, including houses, fences and other infrastructure.Some measures, such as using rocks to protect remaining cliff faces or building sea walls, can slow erosion
Ian Brennan is Chairman of the Save Hemsby Coastline charity, which has spent 10 years campaigning in an effort to convince Great Yarmouth Borough Council to take the erosion of the village seriously.
The 63-year-old retired telecoms manager lives further into the village but cares deeply about the problems his friends and neighbours face.
According to Mr Brennan, 90 homes are at risk of being lost in Hemsby over the next 25 years.

Residents are currently arguing for a rock berm, which is a ridge constructed of compacted soil, gravel, rocks, and stones to direct water away from a particular area
Cliff warnings are common in areas with significant coastal erosion as rock falls can be very dangerous if people are walking on the beach below
The beach in Norfolk on the east coast of England, which has been encroaching on properties much more quickly than surveyors believed that it would
'The whole thing is a political decision,' Mr Brennan claimed.
'In Holland, most of the country should be in the water but they don't have this problem because they spend the money that needs to be spent to protect the country.
'I'm trying to persuade people that Hemsby is worth saving.'
He is currently waiting on planning permission for a multi-million-pound rock berm to be put in place to slow the erosion of the coast.
A rock berm is a ridge constructed of compacted soil, gravel, rocks, and stones to direct water away from a particular area.Mr Brennan is hoping to raise money to fund the project.
In 2017 - when Mr Martin bought his £95,000 house - he was told by an environmental impact study that would have 30 to 40 years before the cliffs reached his house.But just three months later, half of his house was lost to the water
Erosion can cause significant property damage as it removes the foundations supporting buildings and other structures near the cliff edge
Lance Martin's home is the only one on his street that remains, as all of his neighbours abandoned their properties to the sea
He said: 'We can't stop global warming, we can't stop coastal erosion, but we can slow it down. We're trying to buy time so people like Lance don't have to worry.
'Every time a storm hits the residents are nervous that they may have to walk away from their house with nothing but a carrier bag.
'That's the mental health impact we're talking about.These people deserve to get a good night's sleep - a rock berm will buy us 25 years. That's enough time for people to decide what they want to do with their house and with their lives.'
Thirteen miles up the coast is Happisburgh, Norfolk, a village that has also experienced the loss of more than an entire street and 34 homes in the last 20 years.
Coastal erosion is caused by the repeated action of waves against the cliffs.Action can be taken to slow down coastal erosion, including building sea walls
Retired teacher Bryony Nierop-Reading, 77, lost her bungalow to erosion during a huge tidal surge in 2013. She had moved into a caravan further inland that night because she felt so unsafe in her home.
The next morning, she found the bungalow was still standing, but the back third of her home was hanging metres off of a cliff edge - that used to be solid ground.
'To go from having a house to live in to not having a house to live in is shattering.It made me understand more how people who suffered in the tsunami in 2010 - there were pictures of people just sitting around,' she recalled.
'You get hit by the shock, then you can't make decisions. It took me about six months before I could think properly.I struggled.'

A week after the storm struck, North Norfolk Council told Ms Nierop-Reading she couldn't live in the caravan on her land. She pushed back against the council's ruling but after four years of legal battles she ultimately lost the fight.
In 2018, she bought a two-bed semi-detached house for £99,000 at the end of the road.
'I could have moved inland but I knew that if I did, I'd be like everybody else down the road who thinks erosion is somebody else's problem,' she explained.
'I thought it would keep my mind concentrated if I lived on the edge.My family were very cross with me.'
The tarmac on Ms Nierop-Reading's road, Beach Road, drops away suddenly 40 metres away from her front door.
According to her measurements the road has lost eight metres in the last 12 months alone. She says the council are doing nothing to stop it.
Insurance companies also won't cover for damage caused by erosion.
Though she's worried about losing the value of her house, Ms Nierop-Reading said she is more concerned about what will happen when she's no longer here.

Ms Nierop-Reading said: 'The government's response is to 'adapt'- all that means is not doing anything about the problem'
Ms Nierop-Reading, who was widowed last year, said: 'The government's response is to "adapt"- all that means is not doing anything about the problem.
'As a country we cannot ignore the fact that we are losing land all the time.
'How long can they carry on shunting people inland?If the country gets smaller and smaller due to unaddressed erosion we will have a smaller country with an enlarged population with no way to feed them and house them.'
Nicola Bayless, a 47-year-old nurse, is Ms Nierop-Reading's next-door neighbour.She has lived on the road for 19 years.
Her home is attached to Ms Nierop-Reading's house but faces inland. The pair are baffled by the reluctance to use any sea defences by the government.
'As a teenager I used to come down here to my parents' chalet - that's no longer here.I'm very upset and stressed about the prospect of moving,' Ms Bayless said.
'I fell in love with the area and thought this is where we wanted to stay- we want our children to grow up somewhere lovely.'
Ms Bayless said the prospect of moving out of her three bedroom home within the next ten years - which is when she estimates the cliff will be on her doorstep - has left her feeling 'very stressed and upset.'
'You never know when your time is up really.It's like renting. One day you could have another Beast from the East and lose half a field,' she said.
'Your house shakes. I opened the curtain the next morning in 2018 and thought, "Where the hell has the field gone?"'
Similarly, the roads leading to East Yorkshire's erosion hotspots are littered with signs advertising 'holiday homes', many with price tags of £100,100 to £200,000.
Planning consent has also been granted for hundreds of new houses on fields just inland from the static caravans perched perilously above a 50 foot drop to the sea at Holderness.
Many of the caravan dwellers have seen entire rows of the caravan pitches in front of them topple into the sea in recent years.
Whether your pitch is a hundred yards either way of the ugly sea defences already scarring the sandy beaches stretching away to Filey Light House can make all the difference, residents stressed.
'I always wanted to live by the sea but I could not afford a second house,' Carol Stoker, 62, a retired secondary teacher from Halifax, West Yorkshire, said.

Carole Stocker couldn't afford a dream second home near the sea and so opted for a static caravan four years ago.She has already seen several significant cliff falls
'When I first looked out of the window of our caravan I nearly cried.It was the most beautiful view I had ever seen,' Ms Stoker said of her dream purchase
'When I first looked out of the window of our caravan I nearly cried. It was the most beautiful view I had ever seen.
'When I first bought the place I asked the seller "How long do you think we have got?" She said "20 years" - and I giggle about that now.'
Ms Stoker bought her caravan about four years ago.She experienced the impacts of coastal erosion that same year.
'There was a big cliff fall and about 3 metres went. There used to be a car park in front of us then,' she said.
'When you go out for a walk you see a crack in the ground.The next time you pass by you see it has got deeper. The next time that section of the cliff has gone completely.
'The Government should do more because it is not just the caravans at risk - a load of agricultural land has been lost too.'
Homeowner Robin Hargreave has lived on the site for nearly five years, after paying £10,000 for his static caravan, and claims there is evidence of fresh erosion up the coast
'There is always a bit of erosion going on somewhere.I can see it crumbling as I walk along the cliff,' the former nursing home manager said
Robin Hargreaves, 67, also from Halifax, paid £10,000 for a static caravan and has lived on the site for nearly five years, having retired from running a nursing home.
He claims there is evidence of fresh erosion up the coast from his caravan.
'There is always a bit of erosion going on somewhere.I can see it crumbling as I walk along the cliff,' Mr Hargreaves shared.
'We are talking about a 40 mile length of the coastline. I think the policy to protect the towns is sensible because you cannot do much about the force of nature.
Mr Hargreave is determined to continue living in his static caravan, which he loves, despite the risk posed by erosion to his home
Ms Stoker and Mr Hargreaves live little over 100 yards beyond the Hornsea sea defences, meaning their caravans do not benefit from the concrete blocks and groynes
Some of the caravans above the sea defences are actually closer than those that have fallen to the edge of the cliff - but the land is relatively more stable
'I have seen entire rows of caravan pitches which have been lost.When they know one is going to go they have to dismantle the concrete base so it does not topple onto the beach.
'But I won't be going anywhere because I love it here. But I can see the cracks when I am out walking. It does not come crashing down. It just slides gently into the sea when it happens,
'It is quite stable at the moment - but we do not take it for granted.'
Both Ms Stoker and Mr Hargreaves live a little over 100 yards beyond the Hornsea sea defences, meaning their caravans do not benefit from the concrete blocks and groynes that help reduce the impact of the waves.
Some of the other caravans above the sea defences are actually closer to the edge of the cliff - but the land is relatively stable.
There are sea defences on the beach, including groynes and concrete blocks to stop the waves reaching the cliff, in order to slow down the erosion
Homeowners Carole and John Hughes in the living room of their property, which is perilously close to the cliff edge in Hornsea, East Yorkshire
John Hughes said of the cliff: 'I never cut the grass - because the grass is helping hold the soil together and preventing it slipping off'
John Hughes, 71, a retired fibre optic planner, is only six feet from the brink - and is taking no chances with the £37,000 static home he bought seven years ago with wife Carole, 71, a former secretary at Portsmouth University.
He said: 'I never cut the grass - because the grass is helping hold the soil together and preventing it slipping off.
'Everything in front of us has gone.If the worst comes to the worst the site will move the caravan further back but we hope it doesn't come to that.'
The couple live on the stable part of the cliff above the sea defences.
'But if the erosion continues further up, where we are is going to become a peninsula,' Mrs Hughes added.

Pat Cummings, 64, a retired Leeds dinner lady, lives above the sea defences where the ground seems more stable and says she hasn't seen any movement
'The Government just seem content to let it go.If you live in a house around here it's terrible.
'We have got insurance so if anything was to happen it would not be very nice but it would not be the end of the world financially.
'Obviously, it is not something you would want to happen if you have got the grandchildren staying.
'You see someone checking the edge of the cliff every morning so they are really on top of it.But we are not so much concerned for ourselves as other people.'
'There are building a whole load of new houses on a field not far from here. We are surprised they got planning permission but they did.'
Pat Cummings, 64, a retired Leeds dinner lady, is also above the sea defences and the ground seems stable.
She paid £30,000 for the caravan more than four years ago and reckons her investment is safe for the foreseeable future.
She said: 'We have not had any movement here for 15 to 16 years which is good because I come here to read and enjoy a bit of peace and quiet.'
Houses in danger of falling into the sea on North End Avenue, in Thorpeness overlook the beach, as erosion continues to worsen
Lucy Ansbro, 54, claims her house (pictured) is now 12 metres closer to the cliff edge than it was when she first moved in 14 years ago
Part of Ms Ansbro garden has now fallen away and her house now lies only 20 metres from the edge. At the time she purchased the £600k four bedroom property, she was told it would be upwards of 50 years before it became a problem
Villagers in Thorpeness, EVDEN EVE naKliyat East Suffolk, are 'scared for the future' of their homes, as they see properties decimated by cliff erosion.
Lucy Ansbro, 54, claims her house is now 12 metres closer to the cliff edge than it was when she first moved in 14 years ago.
Part of her garden has now fallen away and her house now lies only 20 metres from the edge.
At the time she purchased the £600k four bedroom property, she was told it would be upwards of 50 years before the erosion would be as bad as it is currently.
She now says the property would be worth 'nothing'.
The TV and theatre producer said: 'Where it is now was supposed to happen in 50 years, not 14.It's just all happened very quickly.
'It's always been an issue on the east coast, there was a surge in 2010, but in the winter of 2019 we noticed the fences were eroding very quickly.
'By February 2020, it a lot more erosion had happened and the house next doors defences had disappeared.
'On Easter weekend of 2020 as we were sitting in the living room, evdEN EVE NaKliyat we literally saw bits of our garden falling off of the cliff.
'Since moving in, we're 12 metres closer to the cliff, almost a metre a year, and the house next door lost about 25 metres.

Kate Ansbro has spent £400,000 to defend her property from the oncoming tide but says she's worried about other homeowners who can't afford to do the same
'We've spent £400,000 building proper defences, so we're safe for now, but the house would be worth nothing now until it's properly defended but it's very concerning.'
In October last year, the house next door to Ms Ansbro's had to be completely demolished as it was no longer safe to inhabit.
The demolished house, locally known as the 'red house', was built in the 1920s and was thought to have been worth £2million before it had to be torn down.
The owners had not installed the same defences Ms Ansbro has.
Ms Ansbro is working with the council and a local committee to fundraise and build defence solutions along the entire coast, but fears it may take too long to save everyone.
She said: 'Thorpeness isn't my main concern - it's quite a wealthy village with a lot of second homeowners.There's so many other places along the east coast who simply don't have the money to defend their houses - and it's their only property they're living in with their children.
'We're trying to do as much as we can to raise awareness and raise money to be ready for EvDen Eve naKLiyAT when sea levels rise.'
Another homeowner in Thorpness, Ben Brown, says his home is in a similar situation to his neighbours'.
Ben Brown, 52, whose home is a mere 70 metres from the cliff, said: 'We knew about the issue and we had a survey done before we bought it to let us know how long we had before there would be trouble'

Although the farmer was aware of the coastal erosion problem on the coast when they bought the property two years ago, he was told by surveyors that it wouldn't be a serious issue for another 60 years.
The 52-year-old, whose home is a mere 70 metres from the cliff, said: 'We knew about the issue and we had a survey done before we bought it to let us know how long we had before there would be trouble.
'Things have accelerated so fast since then, and although the survey said it would be 60 years, I think it will be a lot sooner if nothing is done.
'We live over the track so we're not quite at the forefront yet but the house opposite unfortunately had to be taken down.
'It's definitely a worry because we've invested a lot of money here and we expected to have it a lot longer - it's awful and we're scared for the future.
'But I think there's a plan being put together now and the intention is to get the cliff protected.'

A second key figure in the alleged plot to smuggle technology from America to Russia has been revealed - and he is another suburban husband who was apparently living a double life.
Vadim Yermolenko, EvDen Eve nakliyAt 41 lives in a luxury $1m, four-bedroom, four-bathroom home with his glamorous wife and their young children, DailyMail.com can disclose.
His identity can now be disclosed after it emerged that another accused member of the conspiracy, , runs an online craft store in with his wife.
Yarmolenko and Brayman, who were indicted Tuesday then released after posting bail, allegedly helped supply Russia with technology that can be used in nuclear and EVDEN evE naKliyaT hypersonic weapons.The scheme was part of a sophisticated plot orchestrated by the country's security services, prosecutors say.
The elaborate smuggling network, which spanned several continents, has been likened to the plot of a wild espionage drama.
Vadim Yermolenko lives with his wife Diana and their children in a $1m home in New Jersey.Prosecutors say he played a key role in a plot to smuggle millions of dollars worth of high-tech weapons components from the United States to Russia
Away from Yermolenko's alleged role in the shadowy 'Serniya Network,' which is controlled by spymasters in Moscow, he maintains the image of a loving family man in a leafy middle-class suburb of million-dollar homes.
He lives with his wife, Diana, and their three young children in a desirable four-bedroom, four-bathroom home in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey.
Yermolenko, a U.S. citizen, and Brayman, an Israeli citizen born in Ukraine, are named in an indictment which was unsealed Tuesday when both appeared in court charged over the plot.
Yermolenko, represented by a federal defender, was released after posting $500,000 bail, using his family home as security.Brayman was also released on $150,000 bail and subject to electronic monitoring. Both men were told to surrender their passports.
Yermolenko lives in a $1 million New Jersey home, pictured on Wednesday, with his family
Diana (left), who is not charged with any crime, EVden eVe nAKLiyAT regularly shares pictures of the family's life on social media.Prosecutors allege that behind Vadim's image as a successful businessman, he was part of an international plot to supply Russia with sanctioned technology that can be used in nuclear weapons
Yermolenko's glamorous wife, Diana, regularly shares snaps of their holidays abroad, including to Russia, on social media, along with photos of her with her husband, who's accused of smuggling sanctioned weapons equipment from the United States into Russia.
Yermolenko and his wife are both from Russia, according to their social media profiles.
Diana's Facebook and Instagram posts paint them as a loving family who enjoy a jet-set lifestyle, holidaying in sun-soaked destinations across Europe and the U.S.The couple, who married in July 2011, also take frequent trips to St Petersburg.
Diana, from Mirny in Russia's Sakha Republic, regularly posts proud photos of her family, including pictures of her eldest daughter figure skating.
Yermolenko's profile says he is the founder of Divatek, a New Jersey-based company which sells cell phones and other electronic devices.
He says he studied at Dante Alighieri, in St Petersburg, an 'international society founded to promote Italian language and culture throughout the world.'
But prosecutors allege, that behind the image of a family man and successful entrepreneur, Yermolenko helped the Serniya Network 'acquire sensitive military and dual use technologies for the Russian military, defense sector and research institutions.'
Yermolenko's family life in a pleasant American suburb can be revealed after it emerged his co-defendant, Alexey Brayman, pictured with his Russian wife, Daria, allegedly used his home in New Hampshire to ship the technology to Russia
With help from Yermolenko, Brayman allegedly received the equipment at his home in New Hampshire (pictured), before it was sent on to Europe and eventually into Russia
Vadim Yermolenko (left) and Alexey Brayman (right) were allegedly part of a plot led by security services in Moscow to smuggle millions of dollars worth of weapons technology into Russia
Dual use technology is equipment like semiconductors and other sophisticated instruments that can be used in both civilian and military products.It is key to maintaining , which has cost the lives of thousands of civilians - and EVdEN EVe NaKliYAt massively depleted Moscow's stocks of weaponry.
Yermolenko is accused of playing a key role in getting equipment worth millions of dollars to fellow family man Brayman, who then shipped it to Europe before it was smuggled into Russia.
Yermolenko deployed deceptive and fraudulent tactics to open shell companies and bank accounts in order to mask the reason for the purchases and destination of the products, it is claimed.
With Brayman, he would alter, forge, and destroy shipping documents, invoices and other business records to unlawfully export items from the United States.
The men allegedly worked with Vadim Konoshchenok, an FSB agent who smuggled some of the items from Estonia into Russia
The indictment against Yermolenko says he even provided his wife's signature 'to use on IRS documents for company applications and applications to open U.S.If you have any sort of questions relating to where and the best ways to utilize evDen eVe nAkliYat, you can call us at our own website. Bank Accounts.'
Diana Yermolenko is not charged with any crimes.
The equipment that was trafficked in the conspiracy is sensitive and highly-regulated. The U.S. and other countries have imposed strict sanctions designed to prevent Russia from obtaining such 'critical western technology.'
Yermolenko allegedly worked with a Russia-based defendant called Boris Livshits, a 52-year-old from St Petersburg.
Livshits took requests for sensitive items from the Serniya Network and then obtained them from U.S.businesses using front companies, forged paperwork and other deceptive tactics.
Those items were then trafficked out of the U.S. with help from Yermolenko and Brayman, authorities say.
On one occasion, Livshits ordered Yermolenko to 'throw away the invoice' for an order.Another email reveals he instructed Yermolenko to tell a bank that payments were for 'bicycle spare parts, sporting goods and textile products.'
Brayman and Yermolenko allegedly trafficked 'advanced electronics and sophisticated testing equipment used in quantum computing, hypersonic and nuclear weapons'.Pictured: A Russian S-400 missile defense system drives in Red Square, central Moscow, on May 9, 2022
Prosecutors also revealed the vast web of the supply chain which carried the technology into Russia. Common intermediary countries included locations in Estonia, Finland, Germany and Hong Kong.
Brayman and Yermolenko allegedly delivered some of the items to Vadim Konoshchenok, 48, a Russian based in Estonia, who moved them across the border.
Konoshchenok describes himself in communications obtained by authorities as a Colonel in the FSB, Russia's federal security service and the successor evdEN Eve nakliYAt to the KGB, according to prosecutors.
As well as moving the technology, Konoshchenok 'repeatedly' attempted to smuggle tens of thousands of rounds of US-made ammunition across the Estonian border into Russia, including sniper rifle rounds and military grade .223 rounds.
Prosecutors say the seven defendants named in the indictment, which was unsealed yesterday, participated in 'a transnational fraud, money laundering and sanctions evasion scheme controlled by a foreign power that is actively engaged in armed conflict'.
