GenXer living in the moment. Public Health. Equality. Anti-Imperialism. Anti-War. Anti-Genocide. Understand climate change. SARS-CoV-2 is real 😷. Bike-is-best. Gravel 🚴🏽‍♀️. Liveable cities. Everything comes to an end.
Melbourne had things to say today. @albomp.bsky.social supports genocide. Anti-zionism isn't anti-semitism. Go home Isaac Herzog. No place here for war criminals. Not welcome. #FreePalastine

I was invited to speak on the Voices From Voluntary Assisted Dying podcast.

I talk about supporting Rohan, and later my Mum, through MND and how those experiences shaped very different end-of-life outcomes.

This was recorded the day before Mum died.
