That’s because you’re true to yourself Reece. Roots are stronger than petals - that may appear more attractive; but only last for a few days. Be happy in your new home. 😊

Margo is hoping that the weekend brings you joy and is grateful for the plastic Cherry Bakewell dog toy it has brought her already ..

It’s the eve of the vote on assisted dying. Everyone is united on one thing - that however MPs vote, UK palliative care is desperately underfunded. It’s in your gift to change this, @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social You could pledge meaningful action - funding - now. The question is, WILL you?

Thank you. Underfunded, marginalised, scarce and often misunderstood, Palliative care is the elephant in the room in this debate. You can’t have any kind of assisted dying discussion or program of choice without addressing the desperate need for funding of skilled care for all to have a good death.

If the assisted dying bill has any value it’s the fact that it has highlighted the patchy, sometimes non existent, woefully underfunded palliative care in the UK. It has also, quite rightly, brought out the very real & unbearably painful trauma a ‘bad’ death can bring. Both need addressing. Now.

What better way to start my new life on here than sharing photos of Ernie and Margo. Both rescue animals and essential to my writing routine* *Not true - they made me say it. 😉😳
