Since #carers stopped coming in early Dec., I leave my bed even more rarely as donæ feel safe if no-one around or due to be. Had my first #fall of 2023 en route to wc. No damage done. Just a tad shaken. 🙏🏻

After 13 years of Tories in govt, look at the state of the country. They don't know how to govern and haven't the slightest interest in learning.
This is appalling.

I have not been hungry for some 25 years: I get no physiological indications to prompt me to eat. I do not, as a rule, recall to nosh. However, sometimes something will nudge me to consider eating. A few minutes ago I thought that it would be good to consume a piece of fruit. Unfortunately, I have no snack-bowl in my bed-cell. Only had one since #carers departed. #SocialCare #SocialCareCrisis #Malnutrition

This weekend gone, I had a further c.47 hours with no meals. Kind neighbour, who was going to reheat dinner for me on Sunday evening, had to care for sick child. #SocialCareCrisis

Having watched Rishi Sunak on today's "Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg" [https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001h07f/sunday-with-laura-kuenssberg-can-rishi-sunak-solve-nhs-problems] and being reminded of Vote Leave’s NHS warning broadcast in May 2016 [article referencing the broadcast at https://www.politico.eu/blogs/on-media/2016/05/brexit-campaign-broadcast-vote-leaves-nhs-warning/ but video address invalid so a new location quoted above], my grief only intensifies.
This is first multi-link toot so 🤞🏼 😊

@sue_twin2 Quite! And so many other examples. I know my carers rushing placed extra stress upon myself, both physically & mentally, and this only made me iller… #SocialCare #SocialCareCrisis

Thank you for sharing Nikita Gill's "Softer, Stronger People" - beautiful 💖 NHS staff deserve our awe as they struggle to provide care despite government's apparent desire to do everything in their power to privatise the NHS and demoralise remaining staff.
