So I guess that's what, you know, if people get anything from it, it's like we don't have to go into this blindly.

There are lots of things that we can learn that will help us manage those sorts of things.

That's a great thing to remember.

I might have to put that on the fridge.

I was going to say, you know, who's doing the work to address the barriers, but at the end of the day,

We kind of have to do that, don't we?

Ourselves.

And I don't think we don't know enough about them, and this is what's so useful in this book.

Like, I had pain.

I remember being in a children's, at primary school, when our kids were at primary school, Francesca, going to a play or something, and I couldn't even clap.

I think that shit might have been flagged, eh?

But I couldn't clap, because my fingers hurt so much, and I did not do anything about it.

because I was busy three young kids working blah blah blah and I you know it's gone now probably I don't know maybe because of the chemo I had for breast cancer but I'm not sure but I'd be left with the hands of like you know much older woman and I could just kick myself and I was reading this going oh you Muppet you know why didn't I listen to the it wasn't even whispering at that point it was kind of yelling and I still did nothing

It's not all bad.

The last thing I'd like to say about that, though, is I guess is and what is really useful in your book is that just pick up on the cues and then you know what's worthy of investigation.

Like you talk about osteoarthritis, neuropathic pain, back pain, fibromyalgia, spondylosis, all of those things.

And the same with me with the fingers.

That was a cue, right?

And so stop.

Stop.
