An Irish Times article today raising the alarm for whooping cough and measles infections increasing. Childhood vaccinations down. The article is shared on Facebook and the comments section harps straight back to Covid vaccines. Makes me sad and also makes me think of that old saying - 'You can take a horse to water but you can't make it drink' - I see another message on that old saying now - 'you shouldn't make it drink' just be patient. Feels like that old Covid Horse got dragged to the water, had her head plunged into it and nearly drowned so now she's scared of the water. I hope one day we can get past this. Be patient, I guess.
I had the privilege of listening to a man’s final breaths and heartbeats yesterday. It was my first time being there as someone died. He was going to go home on hospice services and I was there for that. My soul knew he was going. His granddaughter was also there, having just flown in from the mainland. I think he was waiting for her. He went quietly and gently. I was meant to be there, for both of them. Profound.
