I love much of what I encounter in Romanian and appreciate the rest. However I am making a firm rejection of the Bossa Nova version of “I want to break free” I just had my ears defiled with at the palas mall.
Remembering the late, great Dolly, who brought joy, comfort and inspiration to so many - including the millions of children given free books through her Imagination Library. We will always ❤️ you.
Yesterday was the third anniversary of my transplant. A day when I remember the generosity of a family in the midst of loss. But also a time to reflect on the changes it’s created for me. Stronger fitter lighter faster. Long may it continue. How long for ? Who knows…

Charlotte, aged 30 was diagnosed with MND two years ago. Like most people with MND, she needs home adaptations to live safely at home as her disease progresses. Accessible housing is vital for people living with MND, but funding for housing adaptations can take forever to deliver.
