Still blown away by the impact this woman had on the world as the messages and donations keep trickling in 💜 (we always knew she was great but just assumed we were biased 😂💜).

The algorithms here don't like me talking about my mum's funeral (dreading it too tbh), but I need to make sure people who knew mum know the details (⬇️⬇️) so please do RT the below if you can. Thx for your help & all the kind wishes and memories people have shared about mum 💜💜
Please do share with anyone who knew mum @debbie_large - The service will be followed by a gathering back in Cuxton (details on Order of Service). I have Livestream details for anyone who is unable to attend in person but would like to watch. Pls DM x funeralguide.co.uk/obituarie…

Everything about this 💔🥺
I hope this triggers some really big actions on NHS cancer diagnostics, wait times & treatment options because they are not fucking good enough and people who aren’t princesses die every day as a result.

We're immensely proud of mum's professional achievements, but most of all, we'll always be inspired by her passion, determination & courage. We'll miss her incredibly, but take comfort knowing the positive impact her work had on bereaved familes (2/2)

Is the entire research funding process designed to break every piece of one's soul into teeny dust particles that will probably just get swept away into a bin never to be mentioned again? 🪦⚰️☠️🧹
