Don't usually post this stuff but in
#solidarity
with fellow
#cancer
travellers it appears after getting rid of one unwelcome guest another has come to visit me. No need for sympathy - it is what it is...a challenge to be overcome. Puff out the cheeks and work through it! πͺπ»
Somehow Iβve made it to my birthday! Thank you

Big thanks to all
@TheChristieNHS
whoβve got me through the last 5 months of weekly chemotherapyβ¦wouldnβt be here without the
#doctors
,
#nurses
,
#admin
staff, etc etc - still a way to go but just recognise youβre all worth your weight in gold (
#government
take note).
#fairpay
Donβt often post this stuff but chemo makes you feel crap - trying to work through it - literally! Needs must. Hope youβre having a good day fellow travellers
#livingwithcancer
Lifeβs not all about βwinningβ - itβs about taking part, sharing, having incredible experiences, fighting for fairness, friendship, solidarity & loveβ¦if you can get though to the end of your days with a small part of that - youβre very fortunate. Thanks to all on my journey!

To all the extraordinary people who do kind, thoughtful, caring and great deeds all year round and didnβt get a gong in the

Many thanks to the lovely

treatment tomorrow. Look forward to working with you again soon! Thank you! Xx
After everything thatβs happened I sometimes wonder how Iβve come this far...then I remember all the love, support, goodwill,cards,flowers, gifts cheering me up &, of course, the endless care of overworked & underpaid
#NHS
staff. THANK YOU - I truly wouldnβt be here without you!
Thank you

Do you remember a few weeks back
@EamonnONeal
when you had me on your Sunday show

to discuss my nomination for

#NDA22
well Iβve only gone and got shortlisted! Incredible! Thank you for the airtime
People sometimes ask me what's the hardest
#gig
you've ever done...& there's been a few including
#singing
at my Mum's funeral a good few years back but at the minute playing at an old mate's funeral tomorrow is coming close...fingers crossed I can do you justice Victoria
#RIP
Spent 8 hrs in an acute medical unit today - supporting someone precious...saw first hand how
#SteveBarclay
βs comments recently of greater βcapacityβ in
#hospitals
is a complete lie! Incredible
#NHS
staff run ragged caring for patients - they are brilliant! Our govt is a disgrace

33 years ago I became self-employed - thanks everyone whoβs booked me for
#gigs

#workshops
,
#songwriting
projects, commissioned me to write
#songs
for various occasions, booked me to host events, had me on
#radio
and occasional
#TV
shows - couldnβt have done it without you!
Big thanks to everyone who made yesterday one of the best birthdays yet - and to think two years ago I was on my last legs! ππ» πππβ€οΈ
#everydayisabonus
Fire destroying any building is horrific - sad about
#NoterDame
- though can't help but think of the poor people of
#GrenfellTower
- those who perished, those who lost loved ones, those who are still homeless, those still awaiting justice - as ever I'm out of kilter on all this!
#Welfare
benefits are not βhandoutsβ - they are part of a system that helps protect the vulnerable on their uppers - paid by our taxes - the purpose of
#government
is to protect its citizens.
#handouts
are
#MPs
expenses for duck ponds, heating horsesβ stables etc etc
#LizTruss
The thing to notice about the
#queensfuneral
is that it would be markedly different without
#music
- (watch it with the sound off!) - shame the
#UK
#government
treats the teaching of it with such contempt! Free music lessons now please!
#musicforkids
I've been asked to write a
#song
in two parts for a
#radio
#broadcast
in late December and actually completed it this morning...most energy I've had in ages!
#music
If, as is being reported, the
#NHS
bosses can afford to pay for taxis in order to break a
#strike
why donβt the use all this βextraβ money to pay the workers instead! The money is there
#politics
is preventing it from going into the right pockets

Have a healthy & happy new year!
#StaySafe
Yes the year has been hard & thrown up many challenges but strange as it may sound it's been a good one! The love, kindness & generosity I've met has been incredible. Thank you. Still a ton of hurdles to overcome - just got to keep on keeping on...stay safe, stay well.
Huge thanks to brilliant staff
