Damn, IBD nurses have been in touch as my bloods from yesterday are awful. They've gone off to speak to the consultant to come up with a plan. 😫 Please don't let it be hospital over Christmas.

It's me!
Happy family-tech-support-mas to my fellow geeks who observe this fascinating holiday tradition. Scholars believe that today’s festive new phone transfers, Bluetooth hearing aid pairings and wifi extender setups date back to the 1980s teenager fixing the 12:00 VCR, and possibly even further.

A little selection of my favourite words for the season. Some beautiful, others potentially necessary. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

People who recommended Biotene and Xylimelts for dry mouth- I can't thank you enough! Internet is revolutionary. They're bloody expensive, though.

I hear this so much, and it mirrors my own experiences of using crisis lines over the last 20 years. You get passed around from pillar to post because nobody wants to be liable for your welfare.
Yesterday I called Crisis Line. They said they would call me back. Then I texted the textline. They told me to call Crisis Line. Crisis Line called me back and said they didn't know how to help me and suggested I talk to the GP. I saw the GP last month. They said call Crisis Line
That's the NHS

We are meeting on Christmas Day at 11:30am for a 'no enforced jollity' coffee hangout and then we have our last Sunday peer support meeting at 3pm on the 28th December with Inge and Amanda holding space.
If you are surviving, but only just, we're here.
If you are running out of motivation to go on, we're here.
If you need a confidential, non clinical, non judgmental community of people who are living with suicidal experiences, we are here; ready to share compassion and dark humour and solidarity.

Tomorrow I have a hospital blood test, which always ends up about a 60-90 mins wait from the appointment time, and then need to go food shopping - save me!

Disabled doesn't mean can't do anything. It means can't do certain very specific things without support.

For anyone finding this season tender or complicated.
You matter. You’re not alone.

After a grand total of 4 Christmas films and 2 Christmas colouring pages, I have had a recharge day that involved nothing but 'gentle' entertainment and naps

Does anyone else get a dry mouth to the point that you can't swallow/feel like you're choking? Have you found anything that helps other than the obvious sips of water?
