@shitscaredmum I don’t know you, or even how I started following you, but like many others on twitter, I can do no more than send you strength for today, tomorrow and the difficult days to come. I remember sitting with my dad last year wanting him to hold on forever but also go peacefully.
@lossiscoming I brought my dad home from hospital and moved in with him to nurse him in his final months this time last year. At the time, it felt so overwhelming but now a year later I take some comfort in that time with him.
@TheWife88 Well i guess just like bereavement isn’t all the same, nor is divorce. Interestingly I do identify with a lot of what you share from my divorce (which like a bereavement I had no choice in and left me dealing with traumatised children) as well as a recent bereavement.
#Oliverscampaign This language is used by a lot of health & social care staff Why is this acceptable
Professionals don’t use this language purposely it’s what is expected & is the norm. It’s important that we all work together collaboratively to change a very outdated culture
Arrive at the airport to find that you’d sent a message 5 mins after we’ve been picked up to say the transfer had been pushed back 3 hours. Now stuck at airport and can’t check in @TUIUK
