❤️60 PumpPals delivered to Rotunda Hospital yesterday in memory of my mum who was a strong breastfeeding advocate in her day❤️ She had her 7 children @RotundaHospital + her 19 grandchildren all born there too. We hope these 60 PumpPals help mums of sick & premature babies❤️

“While doctors are knowledgeable about disease, they do not adequately appreciate that illness changes everything for the patient.”
Carolyn Thomas ☮️@HeartSisters

"Doctors often view illness as a biological phenomenon that needs medical intervention, while patients tend to view illness within the framework of their entire lives." @RitaCharon Doctors, patients & caregivers see diagnoses differently. myheartsisters.org/2020/07/26/nar… @HeartSisters

As a mum whose son had heart surgery in CHI, the *disregard* shown for this child’s needs is sickening. “The judge was asked to grant an injunction to the family compelling the hospital to release the records so the family could seek a 2nd opinion.” rte.ie/news/2023/1009…

“What you were presiding over was a recurring, foreseeable, predictable pattern of suboptimal outcomes, leaving children on waiting lists for so long… What did you do about it?” @TomClonan bravely getting to the heart of the matter today.
Mick Caul@caulmick

Incredibly powerful contribution by @TomClonan at the Oireachtas Committee this afternoon. Worth watching the full thing. We really should be ashamed of the way children are treated in this country. Especially those who are going through so much already. #HousingCrisis #scoliosis #Dail

WHERE is the voice of the patient or family at the Oireachtas hearing today? You would think listening to it that a hospital has suffered, not children and their families.
The Scoliosis Advocacy Network #BackUs@scolionetwork

#healthcommittee when asked about about Register they said there is a hips/knees one but not spine … see below. secure.amplitude-registry.com/CHI/patient-po… @CHI_Ireland was it not utilised ? @davidcullinane @RoisinShortall @SeanCroweTD @neasa_neasa

@Theholisticpsyc @Dr_V_M Trauma does not ‘create growth’. *Healing from trauma and searching for meaning for one’s suffering might.

Trauma can create growth. Post traumatic growth allows us to find deeper meaning, more connection to ourselves and those around us. It can create empathy and resilience. It gives us survival traits and wisdom.

@JanPumpPal @CarolineCardiac @HeartCentreAld1 It’s a non clinical fun day for patients- past, present and future. We have a very casual friendly day we’re patients and parents can mingle with staff and ask questions. Disco, food, raffles, entertainment while we have tours of ICU, cardiac ward, ICU.

Excellent much-needed research capturing parents’ exp of childhood cancer in Ireland. “people say oh isn’t it lucky that he’s still here…I can’t believe what you went through, as if it’s a past tense thing, but it’s not, it’s constantly going to be in your present.”
Rebecca Maguire@RebeccaMaguire

Congratulations to the very soon-to-be Dr @EmmaDelemere on her latest publication which explores the needs and challenges of families impacted by paediatric cancer. Thanks also to @IsaiahGitonga @AdvanceCrt @MUpsychdept tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

@itsthatgirlsuzi Very interesting. Relevant to @CHI_Ireland continuing policy of barring sick children from spending time with their siblings in hospital.

I wonder how many of my colleagues and collaborators in nutrition and equity had the same reaction I did to the story about breastfeeding and GCSE results? Which was ‘gaaaah. Argh.’ A THREAD.
