@OCookson A lovely message from my lovely son.

My mother almost died of a Brain Tumour when I was 15, it was an incredibly terrifying time for all of us.

But luckily she got through it, sadly many others do not.

If you have a spare couple of pounds. Our family would appreciate it! ❤️

Do listen to this. A group of us are doing everything we can to stop cuts in Radio Drama and this interview is very timely.

@5liveSport @BBCSport @markchapman @chris_sutton73 @RorySmith I do hope so I’m afraid.

@JohnJCrace So sorry to hear that get well soon, from a big fan of your wonderful writing.

@BBCNews Same thing happened to me 16 years ago. I have written a book about it which I am going to try and get published. Well done for going public. Mine was put down to menopause and being a single parent plus the stress of working for the BBC!
Meningiomas can be fatal if left.

@GaryLineker How dare they talk to you like that. I am a retired BBC producer and I am ashamed of the company I used to love…..stand your ground and keep up the great football commentary! Even though we lost 7-0 at the weekend I am still smiling. Support and respect.

Great afternoon with @carlprekopp and @CherryVCookson watching some seriously talented actors from @RWCMD in their showcase @royalcourt - watch out for them before they’re snapped up! Props to @MunbyJ @clairebrown78 @patriciamlogue @StruanLeslie @alicemarywhite

It’s almost worth having your boiler break down in the middle of the cold for the joy of having it mended a week later as you’re in the studio and can’t be there! I will try and turn the heating off soon!

Dear @RishiSunak

Please put politics aside. Think if it were your wife or one of your girls lying in an ambulance or hospital corridor with no one able to attend to them.

Show your humanity and call a state of emergency and urgent COBRA meeting
