Millie at 5 months. She has grown so much! Today she ripped a toilet roll to shreds, and she loves a Croc to chew. Pretty good at coming when you call her, except if she's too distracted by wanting to befriend other dogs. Can't imagine her not being with us now.

I must not be wording this right. Lemme try again. There is only one (1) office (not even an institute) at the NIH dedicated to women’s health research. That office is now being dismantled, with only a bland landing page remaining on their website. This is a five-alarm fire! orwh.od.nih.gov

Does anyone (UK based) have any suggestions for someone (healthcare professional/academic/both) who could talk (in person) to end of life doulas about what they should know regarding delirium at the end of life? Suggestions very welcome 🙂

Death is a natural, human part of life. To truly improve end-of-life and geriatric care, we need to rethink our relationship with death - restoring a perspective that existed before medicalization reshaped our culture. An important feature article by @lucyselman.bsky.social in @bmj.com

I am aware that there has been papers and talk recently about “imposter” qualitative research participants. This is probably a controversial question but is anyone seeing the same issues in people applying to be patient and public partners in research? Any strategies to deal with this? #PPIE
