Ester Ghey, one amazing, inspirational and brave woman. She fights for justice and she does it without hatred or malice.
Brianna, never forgotten.

Just finished watching go back to where you come from #goback and Gaza, how to survive a war. Both different but brilliant. Absolutely heartbreaking but thought provoking at the same time. Counting my blessings that I'm not in such a horrendous situation. Both are a good watch.

So many emotions watching Disclosure tonight. Those poor children. They needed care and support and instead they were bullied and humiliated. So brave of all the young women who spoke out on the programme. I hope they are all doing well and getting all the care they need and deserve.

I know that it's because of my job that I'm extremely comfortable talking about funerals and I'm happy to have written my own funeral service so my family don't have anything to worry about when the time comes.
However, it seems that they aren't as onboard with my wishes as I thought!

BBC News - Miscarriage bereavement

Baby Loss Retreat fully support this bill and should be brought in line with the current Scotland policy of 2 weeks leave and pay for a miscarriage. We think it could be longer for leave and hopefully this is the start.

The UK's 1st Safer Drug Consumption Facility is opening in Glasgow - a remarkable achievement. Its advocates believe it could save lives & transform the country's drugs policy. With all eyes on the city I visited & wrote about it for the @londonreview.bsky.social blog. www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2025/ja...

" if all you've done this year"
It sounds nice, it's definitely an achievement but it's not 1 year you've got through.
You've got through 12 months. That's 52 weeks. 365 days. Each day is an achievement to be grateful for. Take each day at a time and be gentle with yourself.
