Love someone with mental illness?
Get comfortable not being able to fix them.
Get comfortable not knowing why theyāre ill.
Get comfortable just supporting them.

Who knew that the gripe water tweets, with beloved @sindivanzyl RIP, would still be so important nearly 6 years later.

Never understood the logic of the long on call time. Being a nurse we would have to decide if it was worth waking the doctor/ resident. Too much pressure on us too.

Bafethu, studying in the dark is not a vibe but you and BAR ONE can change that. Every time you share or retweet #NeedEnergy you add an extra bar of energy and help us fit a generator in Melville Library, Musgrave Library, Winterveld Library and Beacon Bay Library.
