Fancy a feminist roar of a memoir with amazing reviews smashing taboo subjects for #IWD2021? Get #PMSL on kindle, @audibleuk & from brilliant places like @Biggreenbooks & https://t.co/zOmnlLXofA
Had a lovely message from a male listener digging the humour last night.

Among all the other things there are to say about being disabled/travelling with special assistance, why the assumption that because I can’t walk well I don’t want to - or shouldn’t be able to - buy anything in the nice shops.

“Wynken, Blynken and Nod one night
Sailed off in a wooden shoe -
Sailed on a river of crystal light
Into a sea of dew...”

Around 25% of the world's population suffer with chronic pelvic pain. Sadly, only 5% of them have access to specialises.

I’m convinced that nobody goes into pregnancy knowing what a Urogynecologist is because then we’d have to admit up front WHY Urogynecologists need to exist (and why there’s a 6 month waiting list to see one).

[Lynda Williams @Leglesszebra]

@jjfitzgeraldMD My amazing friend @lucebrett wrote a book about her experiences with this called PMSL. We really need to clone doctors like you!

April is #Sjogrens Awareness Month. 4 million Americans have Sjogrens (pronounced show-grins). As a Sjogrens patient, I send my support to my fellow patients who manage this complex, systemic💜💜💜 #autoimmunedisease #thisissjogrens #sjogrensdisease

Dear @BBCLondonNews . There is no such thing as Registered Disabled. The government ended registering disabled people over 4 decades ago.
Very important when covering stories about disabled people.
Thanks 👍

Ignorance & a lack of suitable facilities create barriers that leave many of the over 200,000 people in the UK living with stomas feeling socially excluded. On October 7, we're asking you to join us to Smash Social Exclusion for those living with stomas

Before I got cancer, I had basically no idea what to say to a cancer patient.

Wishing you a very successful poisoning? Glad you’re still alive?

If I was Alcaraz I’d just crack out candy crush for 7 minutes and eat a packet of crisps.

Time is money. If it takes twice as long to do something you earn half as much. This is the brutal fact at the heart of Brexit.

Let’s "Brexit" a £12.99 paperback, blow by blow, and see what difference leaving the single market has made.
