Haven't been on here in a v long while. This post aged like milk as I had to fly back from Japan after just a week when my dog got sick. Same neurological disease as before, leaving him paralysed for almost 3 months. He's finally started to walk again 😍 Excited to get my life back too.

Leaving my little Swedish island for a month of backpacking around Asia. It’s been too long a time since I did something like this. Bonus that it’s a research trip, a birthday and a major career milestone all in one.

If you happen to be in Seoul this weekend, Soundwalk Collective & Patti Smith's latest Correspondences exhibition opens at the Piknic gallery. I've got a super small part in it, having written some text for the four new site-specific artworks they're presenting 🖤 Life is wild.

Huge day to be me, a lifelong Patti Smith fan, as her latest sound-poetry album with the brilliant Soundwalk Collective is announced. Astonishingly, I got to write the bio 🫨 Read all about it here: soundwalkcollective.bandcamp.com/album/corres...

The Duo/Dua crossover nobody needed. Damn creepy owl.

Post you from a different era

Fast forward to today and we are so back. He can’t really jump on the sofa anymore but otherwise 100% his old self. He’ll be 11 soon. Treasuring every day we have left 🤍

Finally, on 11 February, as we were packing the car to drive up to Stockholm, he sat up on his own. Two days later he stood, then walked. His wasted muscles had miraculously returned! It was unbelievable how quickly it happened after so much waiting.

But we persevered, mostly thanks to his incredible neurologist Sofie, who kept us believing that he would recover. There was no medical treatment for his condition. Just time, patience and prioritising him above all else. Here he is at hydrotherapy, being a champ ❤️‍🩹

He lost his voice. He couldn’t pee or poop. I had to squeeze out his bladder with my bare hands and give him an enema every 2 days. For almost 3 months. The trauma will never leave me.

I had to stop work because caring for him was a round the clock job, and by some miracle of timing was in a position to be able to do that. The alternative was unthinkable.

Remembering a year ago when my sweet boy Eli went from perfectly healthy to paralysed in all four limbs in the space of a week bc of a rare neurological condition.

Happy and kind of amazed to see my local lighthouse all lit up in orange ahead of Monday’s International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. I live in the middle of nowhere and have never seen them do anything like this before 👏🏼👏🏼

I had a lovely long chat with Vashti back in April and she mentioned that plans were afoot to release her self-produced demos 🐇 www.thelineofbestfit.com/features/int...

Getting on for 11 years now and not one intelligible word out of this freeloader

Every day the relentless bombing in Beirut inches closer to my friends’ homes and I lose a little more of my threadbare sanity. This morning has been hell for them. Every day is hell.

Eli is still recovering from a small op he had this week. Usually he doesn’t look at me this witheringly.

Ready to try this 🦋 thing out again. Hej.
