A final piece of advice from Holly Butcher - written the day before she passed away from cancer at just 27:
“It’s a strange thing knowing you’re going to die young.
At 26, I thought I had time…
To fall in love.
Start a family.
Grow old.
But cancer doesn’t care about plans.
Now, I understand how fragile life really is. Every single day is a gift, not a guarantee.
I’m not writing this to scare you. I’m writing to remind you: really live.
Stop stressing over little things. Be kind to your body- move it, nourish it, stop criticizing it. One day you’ll wish you had appreciated it.
Go outside.
Look at the sky.
Feel the sun.
Just be.
Spend less time chasing “stuff” - more time making memories. Don’t skip moments with people you love.
Laugh more.
Write a note.
Tell someone you love them.
Complain less.
Give more.
Helping others brings more joy than anything you can buy.
Be present.
Put your phone down.
Show up - really show up.
You don’t need to have it all figured out. You don’t need a perfect body, or a perfect life.
Just follow what makes your heart light up. Say no to what drains you. Make changes when you need to.
And please - donate blood. I wouldn’t have had that extra year without it. And that year gave me memories I’ll hold close… forever.
Thank you for reading this.
Live your life well.
And maybe… we’ll meet again someday.”

We thank @JimShannonMP who tabled an important debate to discuss World Asthma Day in parliament last week. MPs recognised the devastating impact that asthma can have individuals, their families and our healthcare system. We urge the government to prioritise lung health in the new 10-year-plan for the NHS.

🚨If you have asthma, using too much of your blue reliever inhaler over a long period of time can cause more serious side effects, putting you at greater risk of an asthma attack.
If you’re using your blue reliever inhaler three or more times a week speak to your GP or asthma nurse. Find out more: bit.ly/3YV6pRe

To celebrate World Asthma Day 2025, GINA has chosen the theme "Make Inhaled Treatments Accessible for ALL”. Inhaled medications are essential both for controlling the underlying disease & treating attacks in people with asthma, and access is vital.
