Spent hrs today looking for my son’s passport (hols tomorrow). Tears were had and I’d resigned myself to the fact we wouldn’t be going. Son suddenly remembers he’d put it in one of his Nintendo switch games boxes ā€˜to tidy it away’. We’d emptied out the wheely bins & everything!

No matter your age, vitamin D is essential! It helps your body absorb calcium and helps contribute to the maintenance of normal bones. You can get vitamin D from sunlight, food, and supplements like Vitabiotics #Osteocare

Could it be sepsis? My new illustration means a lot to me. For many years I have pushed the use of simple language, images and information on a one pager in healthcare but we are still so far away from this: soniasparkles.com/could-it-be-se…
