I was trying to wait until we had more definite information and a firm plan of action until I posted an update but so many of you have been asking how I am (thank you for caring!) that an update is needed. In case you don’t follow my twitter or facebook feeds, […] Jenny is alive and back home! She has physically deteriorated and is in a bad way from the long ambulance journeys and the noise of being in a hospital and having doctors and nurses constantly coming into her room in hospital, which was always going to make her worse.

Human beings need five things to survive: water, food, oxygen, sleep and also sufficient warmth so that they don’t get hypothermia. For many people with disabilities, the total removal of plastic straws would take away one, sometimes two, of these five essentials to stay alive. Before plastic straws were invented, a lot of […]
