This has been EXACTLY me since yesterday. The Athena thing is still winding me up. Yes I know why she’s depicted like that so SHHHH. The villager translation thing is so true. HE WAS SPEAKING GREEK TO GREEKS. And yes I am Greek and I have a relative named Athena

You think you've got it bad? In 1903, Americans had to put up with Bulgarian and Italian domestic servants! Stupid Irish land reform! New York Evening World, April 11, 1903

Here’s to really good news!
Ada PalmerEndometriosis takes nine years to diagnose. That’s about to change. NICE has approved two tests: a saliva test reading microRNA markers, and a gut-sensor test returning results in 45 minutes, sparing women the keyhole surgery currently needed. buff.ly/QX3jHk8 #ShareGoodNewsToo

There is currently a public consultation open until 18th August on #CarersAllowance. It's currently £86.45 per week. Many carers are forced to give up work when a family member gets ill. Caring can be 24/7. You can't live on £85 pw. For a full time carer, CA should be set at minimum wage.
Didn’t learn about “compassion fatigue” til I was an adult. It’s not a moral failing but a perfectly normal response to the role of being a carer. You really do need to take care of yourself too. This goes out to all my friends who are finding themselves with new caring duties in middle age
