@ClareGerada @MMS_ethics @DrShanHussain A poignant story by a GP highlights the problems - and the opportunities for greater compassion and humanity @MMS_ethics @PatientVoicesUK patientvoices.org.uk/flv/1005pv384.… #dnaofcare

@DrShanHussain We have to protect GPs & in so doing we protect patients, NHS and the tax payers. Blaming, shaming and placing unrealistic expectations on us is counter productive. We can’t work any harder. We can’t work any smarter. We need the system around us to change. We can’t do it alone

@drkathrynmannix @suerobinsyvr Thank you Kathryn :-) @PatientVoicesUK is the one to follow- and plenty of stories from patients, families and staff at patientvoices.org.uk/stories.htm

What a lovely, thoughtful e-card to receive from our friend @NHSE_Paul Happy International Women's Day Everyone!

@ShirleyHughes_ I am so sorry for your loss but so glad that she lives on in the memories of all her readers. I loved reading Shirley's books to my children and now I love reading them to my grandchildren. What a wonderful legacy she has left.

It is with deepest sorrow that we announce that Shirley died peacefully in her sleep at home on Friday 25th February. Ed, Tom and Clara Shirley’s children Photo credit Lizzie Mayson

If everyone who has ever been grateful for a doctor followed and retweeted we would reach a million in minutes and be able to show all NHS staff the support they continue to need. It will take just a few seconds of your life but could make such a difference.

If everyone who has ever been grateful for an NHS porter followed and retweeted we’d reach a million followers by midnight

@hospicedoctor Thinking of you and your beautiful daughter; both of you have touched and inspired so many.

Phoebe took her own life in February last year Hidden depression we all missed Gloom descends as date draws closer Next year I will have days remembering joy not tragedy She would want that Purple is her colour

@PantelichMarija I am so sorry that you lost your beloved Sasha. I hope that the memory of him and of his birth and the love and kindness you received bring some small comfort.

I am heartbroken to share that our baby Sasha passed away in my womb at 36+ weeks. I had the honour of birthing him on 21 Jan. I am exposing my pain here because Sasha will always be my son & because I can't bear the silence & (self) stigma around #stillbirth. 1/3

@Liz_ORiordan @drkathrynmannix She is indeed :-)

isn't @drkathrynmannix wonderful?

@criminographer @DarrenBowes3 I'm so sorry to hear this terrible news. Your son was beautiful indeed and warmed many hearts without doubt. I wish you whatever passes for peace in the midst of your grief.

0n Boxing Day, for reasons still unknown, suddenly and devastatingly our beautiful 3 year old son Alexander died. I want the world to know how much joy he brought to everyone's lives, but especially ours. We are lost without him. Please keep our gorgeous, kind boy in your hearts.
