It's been a really challenging week since I was discharged from the Brompton. And now I'm having to isolate in my room at the Priory, because of course I would catch COVID in the middle of a heatwave ๐
Please send good thoughts as I try not to totally barmy/die from the heat.
๐๐ผit absolutely amazes me the gall of some people to need to comment on anotherโs weight (or any aspect of appearance for that matter). Be kind & mind your own f-ing bees wax #endweightstigma
Anyone sending birthday cards to The Priory, can you please mark them for East Wing and that they are birthday cards. Otherwise I have to open them with staff when they arrive and this way they can hang on to them till Thursday. Thanks!
@wouldrachel It is very much like this one. Also stops me cluttering my desk and putting it away at end of day makes it feel like I am leaving the office.
@wouldrachel Rachel I have a pop up desk from a company who makes things for the elderly and it has changed my life. I will google it and send you a link
Appalling facts: up to now 58% of deaths during Covid have been people with disabilities. If you're a disabled woman needing more support, you're 91% more likely to die. GEM and disabled? Much more. @WEPdisability and @WEP_UK are not happy. Are you @JustinTomlinson, @MattHancock?
You are invited to join us and @CentreforMH for the launch of #AskHowIAm, a report and campaign calling for compassionate conversations for all people living with long-term conditions.

In a month's time it'll be the end of #CFWeek & this jar will be full of jellybeans. Each ๐ฌ will represent every tablet I swallow between now & then. You lucky lot will have the chance to win entire jar. Here's where we are as of 6pm today, think I might need a bigger jar...
I don't usually name and shame but I'm so bloody angry. Have just been emailed by PR company @sanitymarket promoting the story of a man who apparently cured his cancer through an 'alkaline vegan' diet. This kind of fake medicine is hugely dangerous and will endanger lives.
