I leant today a new word: marasmus. It means death by withering away, neglect, lack of food. In 1943, the infant mortality rate in Bessborough mother & baby institution, Co. Cork, was 75%, much of which was labelled as maramus. Today, survivors are protesting as insult is being added to injury: Bessborough is being handed over to private developers. An estimated 923 babies & children are thought to be buried there, of which only 64 have known graves. It is a cemetery, a site of cultural significance and national shame that should not be sold to the highest bidder. My own m&b institution in Dublin has been bulldozed. It's another form of silencing that shows the lessons of the past have not been learned, and the state apology was just lip service.

Please consider writing to your TDs to intervene.

Today at 5.30pm. It is not OK to erase the history of mother and baby home survivors in Ireland.

A couple of week's ago, my gorgeous running club and I completed the . Marathons are very special to me, they're where I learnt my own strength and resilience. It's been about 7 or 8 years since I ran one, and to coach my own group was pure joy and made this year extra meaningful. Doing a marathon is a privilege & a gift - and I'm so happy my crew got to experience it, and will have that gift for life: the proof that you're stronger than you think.

I'm so grateful for my generous friends, family, clients & GreenTeam members - I raised over €2500 for , providing aid on the ground in Gaza, & , providing assistance to parents in Ireland whose children have life limiting conditions. Thank you sincerely to all.

Today I learned a new word: Medicide. The UN has coined this word in response to the unprecedented and deliberate targeting and destruction of hospitals, medical equipment healthcare workers and patients in Ga*a by Isra*l. This is on top of another new acronym created last year: WCNSF - wounded child with no surviving family.

The cruelty is terrifying.

Everyone should be literally screaming at this point. What more will it take? More strikes, walk outs, mass protests and direct action required of course but every post, every hashtag, every person who speaks out amplifies Palestini*n voices and builds the movement.
