Gorgeous day for a nurses’ strike outside Great Ormond St Hospital. So grateful for their unmatched care & skill. Now let’s get them the fucking pay rise they deserve & that the nation can *easily* afford. Austerity is a choice so change your mind or get in the bin!✊🏼❤️@theRCN

Proud to have seen my son graduate today from @KingsCollegeLon at the @southbankcentre. I was pregnant with Eric when diagnosed with #MND #ALS and told I had a few years to live. So happy 😀

I want to say Thank You to everyone for all your messages of support and generosity. It gives me and my family a huge amount of strength in a time of sadness for us. I will meet this challenge head on. Ultimately I can’t win but I will fight with everything. Hope is not lost.

3 yrs ago today my wife and I were sent home from a neurologist's office with an ALS diagnosis and not much else. Today, I am catastrophically disabled and living on borrowed time. Take it from someone who is living it. It's time to do everything we can to #EndALS.
