@doctor_oxford That is similar to our story. I lost my Mum on 19th April, my Dad dropped her off at hospital on 14th and never saw her or spoke with her again. My brother has Down’s syndrome and had to attend the funeral with a carer. No hug for him as he lives in supported accommodation.
Daniel’s my son. Profoundly Autistic. Hasn’t one friend. It’s his birthday today. In his ECHP he wrote that his two wishes were to learn to drive and make friends 😣 Please wish him a happy birthday. Please show him you care. Please share. ##happybirthday#autism#rt
Anna & I facilitated a super #appreciativeinquiry about emotional regulation this afternoon at Strathburn. What a fabulous team and a great opportunity to stop and reflect on everything they already do well and what they want to do moving forward. @aberdeenshireEP
@RishiSunak I can’t stress this enough: my Mum died because the Tories ignored what was happening across the world and did not lock the country down fast enough. I can’t stress this enough - she was one of thousands who did not need to die but did because of poor decision making.
I've come across comments re anorexia recently, placing judgement and blame on those suffering /caring for loved ones with EDs. Let's reduce stigma and be better informed. Try @BeatED_Scotland for info +support #EatingDisorderAwareness https://t.co/KphVpIdVze
