Cath Fitzsimmons has been awarded the British Empire Medal in the New Year Honours list.
Retired palliative care nurse Cath returned to the frontline during the Covid-19 pandemic.
She says it wasn’t a difficult decision at all to return.
What a hero🙌

PHE have a more advanced solution but don't publish the underlying data. Their charts are a bit complex and perhaps over-emphasise covid because they don't include the expected deaths for context. END. fingertips.phe.org.uk/static…

Thinking ahead about grief: would a letter be a support?
Here's a template from my book.
@thegriefcast @Philippa_Perry @janegarvey1 @peston please help to spread the word. It's my copyright, so it's my gift to anyone it might help.
Use as is, or as a prompt for a personal letter
#Pallicovid: in case it's of use, there's a letter template in #WithTheEndInMind that might be useful for those tender end of life situations where visiting is limited & patient is awake enough to dictate or even write to loved ones.
Here it is as a single page, with my love.
