Amazing to be a part of this fantastic programme!
Moving from children’s services into adults’ services can be a daunting time for young people with life-limiting conditions.

Our new transitions programme, with support from @tnlcommunityfund.org.uk, aims to improve the process for young people and their families.

When discussing serious health issues with patients, it’s crucial to ask permission each time a new sensitive topic is broached… people may have specific needs, timing, or preferences they’d like to voice before you “go there.”

My 12 year old is taking on the Christmas baking this year. As we both have coeliac disease I try to show her that being gluten free shouldn’t mean missing out on good food (even if you have to make it yourself!) Thanks @beckyexcell.bsky.social for this chocolate orange log recipe!

An article for @newsweek.com about palliative care, ordinary dying and underfunding across the UK www.newsweek.com/i-witnessed-...
I witnessed a peaceful death—it made me question our approach to dying
Why do people here know so little about what ordinary or natural dying looks like?

I thought my son’s room was untidy but he tells me it’s an extreme parkour course in a very small space.
I stand corrected
