@oddweirdadvice Great news, David. 🙏🏻

@NiecyOKeeffe Yes 100%,Niecy. I also had a fractured pelvis years ago but despite this, I go for ‘maintenance’ about every 6 weeks. Need to get better at exercises in between but mostly pain free - unless I do something stoopid. 😅

@FlashSOTU52 And one of the very first hypo treatments recommended to me - and promptly forgot about!🙄 We even used to give them to patients back in the day with milk. Still never registered. Doh.😅😅

Lovely senior Irish tweeter David O'Brien, who you may know better as @thepainterflynn and now tweets from @oddweirdadvice is currently in hospital in Nenagh. The hospital will release him if he can find suitable accommodation. David previously had a house which he sold some years ago when he moved to live with his brother. His brother is sadly now deceased and David's subsequent accommodation is no longer available to him.
David does not want to go into a nursing home if he can help it. Although disappointingly no alternative accommodation has been sourced for him by the State, he is hoping it may nonetheless turn up through the goodwill of Irish twitter (also, he says things usually do turn up in the end). It would be great if he were to be proven right!
If anyone is interested in offering David accommodation, please contact him at @oddweirdadvice. He is cut off from his enormous number of old followers at @thepainterflynn because of Twitter issues with that account.

@FlashSOTU52 The Medtronic 780g, Jimmy. With 3ml syringe reservoir. The extended sets are great but they often become less reliable for me at the 5 day mark. Still good tho.

At an aquarium in Japan, after closing time, some clever little otter pups help their grandpa tidy up their toys. As a reward, he gives them ice cubes

@oddweirdadvice How thoughtful. 🙏💖

@oldnurse55 I only ever heard it was unlucky to wear to a wedding - not unlucky overall.

My everlasting rose bush. It has been moved 3 times since we moved in - including when foxes burrowed the roots, and still going strong 25 years later! Love it. 💖
