I've seen a lot of people dying in my job. But I've not been present throughout an experience of ordinary dying until now. If interested to know more this film by Kathryn Mannix is spot on. It's sad but it's really not so bad. With a book, cup of coffee, family chat.

Mrs Smith, 78, hip fracture patient, described as "confused & aggressive"

Ward round note: "?UTI. Start antibiotics." No mention of "delirium"

My reaction: What about her distress - untreated pain? Dehydration? Medication review? Telling the family the diagnosis? Etc.

Always thought this video with 800 views by a guy on YouTube named Daniel Cupps should have a few million more. It is even better that it ends in the most reprehensible way I can think of. No better way to prove the point.

Brensocatib licensed as the first medicine specifically designed to treat non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis in patients 12 years and older As with any medicine, the MHRA will keep the safety and effectiveness of brensocatib under close review.

#bronchiectasis
This is the drug we have been waiting for- actual treatment for bronchiectasis.

Now a wait for funding decisions, but this is an enormous step forward

Thank you to @profjdchalmers.bsky.social and team for all your work!

When we refer to the Liberal Democrats, we generally shorten it to β€œLibDems”.

So why don’t we do likewise with ReformUK and refer to them as REFUK?

It would have the added benefit of succinctly conveying what they stands for!

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)
Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio) YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
