I have a Carl Reiner story that I hold very dear to me. I figured I'd share it today, on the day of his passing, because I hope it will bring some other people some joy the way it does me.

Check out this incredible #accreta patient education video created by @_TheNMH & @placentaaccret3 in Ireland. Patient advocate @naomimcooney runs the hospital's accreta support group and was instrumental in making this video happen. Well done!

Witnessed the most amazing thing on the train to Edinburgh yesterday. A guy boarded in Wigan & sat opposite me. He went to sleep for an hour.
When he woke up he bought a sandwich, ate it & went back to sleep. (This isn’t a maths test, you don’t need to know the distance/speed).
