@drlizamorton.bsky.socialReunited with this 1954 painting of Matron Dick & her Scottie, Roddy, from Falkirk Royal Infirmary mentioned in my book. Bring back hospital Scotties! 🐾 New meds protocol next. Onwards & upwards! ❤️🩹
@drlizamorton.bsky.socialMust of had a serious poker face at cardiology appointment yesterday because I was mistaken for an interpreter directed to another patient. Being an "expert patient" is serious business.
@drlizamorton.bsky.social❤️🩹It’s been a tricky few weeks as I navigate another bump in the road in my life journey with a congenital heart condition. Thanks to everyone who has reached out. Your support means so much. 📚 This nice news about my books has also cheered me up. Learn more about the books at link in my bio.
@drlizamorton.bsky.socialTaking time out to rest, my short blog explains why..
“During a medical crisis, the answer is not always to fight harder, think more positively, or keep going at all costs. Sometimes the task is to create enough safety to weather the storm; to coorie doon”
