We are pretty much a family of dyslexics and if I am not tweeting about nursing, social media or cats you can bet that the tweet will be around dyslexia.  The lovely @DiverseLearners brought this tweet to my attention today (original tweet by @ChrisMulryan) : @MariaDuffeyUK @hslonurse @AgencyNurse @Mynameisbekilem @KarenSFranks Short, funny conversation about #dyslexia https://t.co/6pwEwYNbnM…

Wow what a day we had yesterday! We had an amazing trip to have a look around Maxwell Hall for WeGetTogether (#WGT216) Many thanks to Salford University for making us feel so welcome.  I wanted to share with you this wonderful picture of some of the WGT16 team in deep conversation as tweeted by @VanessaLGaritty:…

Did you see this tweet from @WeCYPnurses yesterday morning? I did and I have to admit my heart sank.  I’m not a children’s nurse but I am a mum of 3 and one can only imagine how scared that poor little guy is! This tweet made me stop and think though, , it made me…

Day 2 of my back to the basics of blogging and not overthinking my blogs and I have to say that I have been pretty inspired by a seemingly unobtrusive tweet from Sam Sherrington (@SamSherrington) I can practically hear people saying – well what’s so inspirational about that tweet? And with the CNO Summit starting…
