Hi Miriam, good evening. I honestly think it's the closest thing we have to a silver bullet. I think it'd have a transformative effect (if given time to bed in). I agree i havent seen the uptake change in 20 years. It's still seen as an add on, rather than an essential. thank you & speak soon🖐️

Hello sir👋
Appreciate your warmth.
Hope you keeping well & family too.
Yeah, these people are out there for sure. Often behind the scenes, quietly getting on with it.
Sending best wishes to you😃

Good evening Angelica🖐️

Oof, I hear you Toni.
And appreciate the way you describe the reality, we don't do enough of this. Just express our daily life situations & everything we've got on. Thank you & best wishes 👋

I can hear the sound of the train😆
My life is OK. I'm lucky in so many ways. Just so tired. Makes me think of Insomnia by Faithless, but changing the word to "I can't get no rest..." in fact I'm gonna listen to that now. Thanks😍

Hm. I'm tired. And tired of solutionising- trying to find hacks to keep going, to try & optimise what's just not working.
Be nice to opt out & move to some Scottish island & write stories about train travel😆

I agree it's not sustainable.

But it's like we treat it as if it is... until it isn't.

Amazing what we normalise. Need to keep reminding ourselves that it ISNT normal.

Agree Sarah yeah. We KNOW the value of continuity of care, & yet our systems seem to do much to get in the way of it. Denis Pereira Gray's work on continuity is highly compelling, even linking continuity of care to mortality... if it was a drug, it'd be getting prescribed all the time 🤷‍♂️

Hey Nat, good to hear you. It's so hard to hold the different perspectives. There's distress & frustration all around. I don't want to say 'on both sides' bc I don't like the idea of 2 sides... hope things OK with you👋

Aw Nicola that's kind thank you. And best wishes to you.
There's a lot of distress through the system, it's very hard to witness tbh.

Ouch😫😆

Totally unbearable.
I got so hot, & hassled. Everyone looked so stressed. Traffic everywhere. And in the background, jolly music playing "simply. Having. A WONDERFUL Christmas time."!! Ha ha. Fs.
