iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Could you imagine if you got something like cancer and a guy you’ve known for years tells you ‘Oh - I don’t believe in that’. Mate, it doesn’t change what will kill me! I was baffled. What other illnesses do people think are a myth? I would genuinely like to know xx

I genuinely thought he was an intelligent man, a bit rough, but he’s a great delivery guy however my respect for his opinion plummeted into utter disappointment. If I catch Covid again - I’ll maybe just answer the door next time. After all - you can’t catch an imaginary illness(?)

Thankyou so much for getting back to me and recommending those sets. The type-writer one sounds fab and looks challenging enough (lol although I don’t look forward to explaining what a typewriter is! - she’s a great kid but sometimes she make us feel VERY old and dinosaur-y 🦖 🦕 ) Thankyou xxx

I had Covid in October. A month later a Delivery guy came to the house & I apologised that I hadn’t seen him in ages because I had Covid. He said ‘I don’t believe in Covid’. Words utterly failed me - it is NOT a ‘belief’ option you can identify out of. That’s not how Reality works.

*it was frightening. Honestly I’ve never seen her so immersed in a puzzle. Do you have any set you’d recommend? xx

I’ve never seen her so content. I’ve been supporting her since she was 11yrs old and we have her at the weekends. Now that we know this actively helps her relax - I’ll need to find a more complex one for her!

We got a kid the Lego Milky Way. Didn’t realise it was for 18+ (kid just 14yrs old) - not only did she finish it in two days, she bet the estimated time of 8hrs (she did it in 6 and a half). If was frightening - she was concentrating for hours (despite battling ADHD). She said it quietened her mind

Non disabled people see the ER as a magical place you go when you’re suffering. They believe they will be “fixed” and sent home feeling better than before. People like me know it’s not true. We mourn the loss of the innocence we had when we too believed the hospital was safe 🧵

This always baffled me when the boot lickers say ‘the Royals are grateful for public support’ - aye well pull out your cheque book and save that public you so admire. They wouldn’t even notice £1.8 billion out of £68 billion. It would not affect them but it would help real people on the ground

According to homeless charities it would take £1.8 Billion to solve the UK homeless crisis This parasite & his family have assets in excess of £68 Billion Ditch the starched white apron & photo shoots, get the cheque book out. Even better disband the monarchy, #NotMyGreedyRoyals #AbolishTheCrown

Elon Musk wants to control entire countries’ democracy. Wanting to give Farage 100million ££ to ensure he becomes Prime Minister - that is utter corruption. It’s not ‘freedom’ if one billionaire controls the planet. That’s an abuse of power. Power corrupts and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely.

Wait time for a disabled person to access medically assisted death in Canada? 3 months A specialist for TREATABLE conditions? 12-18 months Affordable housing? Multiple years Palliative care, psychiatric care & pain management? Good luck. This is why we’re scared. Via @paulapeters19.bsky.social

UK wait for new wheelchair
accessible social housing = 47 years

I’ve been waiting for Patient Liaison to email since October. I’ve actually sent them a reminder today. But where I live the NHS is a law unto itself and they simply ignore emails and written letters. My case is complex but it shouldn’t take 2 months to review x

I was even persuaded by the Pain Consultant to take Zomorph and it did nothing but cause projectile vomiting, fever and seizures. The Pain Consultant then panicked and offered fentanyl which is 100x more potent than morphine. I declined because the trust was gone by that stage

I’m sorry - I know this is nothing to do with you but how can I trust a system that left my grandma screaming in agony whilst refusing to listen to her family? & honestly I don’t trust them with the ‘Assisted Dying’ bill either because they’ve made too many mistakes in my lifetime with people I love

money to stop my Grandma from having a horrific death. It IS in my notes that morphine doesn’t work and despite this they’ve tried to prescribe it to me four times this year alone. It’s like they don’t even check the notes & I’m worried I won’t be able to fight whilst I’m dying xx

That’s the thing. We can’t get the NHS nurses to understand that morphine doesn’t work. A lot of them said it was ‘outside their experiences’ and that they couldn’t do anything without a doctors signature. We couldn’t get the NHS doctor to come out and had to pay Privately. But we used all our

the morphine was doing nothing and prescribed a painkiller similar to tapentadol at palliative levels. How do I make sure my aunt and I don’t die in agony? We could only afford private medical input because we released equity in the house & now don’t have that option. How do I get the NHS
