The tweet I never wanted to write. The time has come to say goodbye. 5 years to prepare, doesn’t make it any easy. I’m under hospice at home care, & I’m spending my time surrounded by my family. Please buy me a 🍷 to see me out and raise vitial funds. bowelbabe.org ❤️

@GaryScribbler Precious moments ❤️

Whatever things may be whirling around in the ether, being with the one you love and who loves you makes everything else (for a moment at least) fade away. Cherish every moment. #doodleaday #loveafterloss #Fridaysnuggles

Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! #MyTwitterAnniversary

@GaryScribbler So beautiful 🤩❤️🌈👌

Yes it may all be a bit obvious but sometimes it’s worth saying. In our busy lives it is so easy to take it all for granted. 💜❤️💚 #doodleaday #loveiseverything #loveafterloss #FindingJoy

@GaryScribbler @ArchwayHorley Love this! How wonderful 💞

Joy and I met at this theatre (@ArchwayHorley). Kids have been born into it but it’s no guarantee they will love it like we did. So grateful that they do. The wheel turns. The cycle continues. #doodleaday #widowerlife #FindingJoy #theatrelife #dramamatters

@GaryScribbler How lovely ☺️ so pleased for you 🤗

Can’t begin to describe just how happy this makes me. How lucky I am to find love like this again. You really never know what the universe will throw at you next for good or ill - so live every moment to the full. #doodleaday #loveafterloss #FindingJoy #simplepleasures

@1OFFGINGER @WOBUK Sounds interesting! Trying to get back into work now after losing my husband to Brain cancer - need to get my confidence back and realise my worth again!

For you or someone you know 🤩 Find out more on Monday 11th October 👇@WOBUK #MondayMotivation #RepresentationMatters #Careers

@goodgrieftrust @DrAmirKhanGP Great idea. I lost my husband a year ago to Brain cancer and wish I had more support. Covid-19 has made grief even harder. Self care is so important. Recorded a podcast last month for @BrainTumourOrg episode 7 on my journey. Hugs 🤗 Diane x

Please wear our little umbrella as a symbol of #HelpandHope for those grieving. Help us raise awareness of the breadth of support services available to the bereaved & let them know they are not alone. Order yours here: @DrAmirKhanGP thegoodgrieftrust.org/good-grief-sho…

@1OFFGINGER Sunny in Winchester and looking forward to meeting a friend and 🍹 drinks on the Southbank.Happy Monday! 🤗💛

Hmm 🤔 Winter’s coming!! It’s a dark and wet start to the week. #mondaythoughts #Weather #mondaythoughts

@GaryScribbler Lovely 😊

A rare quiet evening and a chance to take stock… counting blessings. #doodleaday #widowerlife #loveafterloss #FindingJoy

@behindthewoman1 Exercise helps - my current view! 😂

Morning, One of the most troubling feelings during #Menopause can be the sense of loss of control of your body, moods,even life in general. There's numerous things we CAN control so try & take it back in these areas below to regain your power.💛 #MondayMotivaton #PositiveVibes

@GaryScribbler How lovely 💗 yes love ❤️ conquers all - its so hard not seeing my husband’s face for a year now. Gradually, slowly, I’m moving forward. So pleased you’re happy.

Some days are just perfect…. #doodleaday #widowerlife #loveafterloss

Anyone for chicken curry or beef chilli? Batch cooking is now live part of my single life! 😂 #widow #single #Grief #griefjoumey

@GaryScribbler @UKSepsisTrust My friend lost his little daughter Elspeth to Sepsis 3 years ago, she was 5. Misdiagnosed as gastroenteritis and sent home from hospital. When they called an ambulance as her symptoms worsened at home, it was too late 🥲heartbreaking

In the blink of an eye, Sepsis changes lives forever. Please stay vigilant - and ask “could it be sepsis?” #doodleaday #widowerlife @UKSepsisTrust #WorldSepsisDay

@GaryScribbler @_bridgetheatre Haha 😂 that’s why I need to get to London soon and just soak it up - whatever that might be!!

You never know what’s going to be round the corner in London! #doodleaday #London @_bridgetheatre #southbank
