A lovely tribute in today’s @SheffieldStar . We will say goodbye tomorrow, but she will not be forgotten. #WearpinkforKirsty

Thank you to everyone for your kind words about Kirsty. Her funeral is the 9th December.
Pink was Kirsty’s favourite colour. Whilst you may not be able to join us to celebrate her life, please remember her by wearing something pink next Wednesday!
A number of people had asked about sending flowers for the funeral. The offer to send flowers is much appreciated, however, could I ask that instead, you make a donation via the Virgin Giving Page in Kirsty’s memory. uk.virginmoneygiving.com/Som…

So over the weekend the boys have made sure @KGillgrass is watching over them. They have put pictures on their walls and each have one of her favourite paintings in their room. Also put her @rcgp Fellowship & Membership Certificates & photo up
It is with great sadness that I am posting to let you know that my wife @KGillgrass , mum to our 2 wonderful boys, passed away on Monday 16th November.
At the moment we are all still in shock and ask that you give us time and privacy to grieve as a family.
My priority is to support our sons as they try to come to terms with the massive hole that has been left in their & everyone’s life.
As well as being devoted to her family, Kirsty was a great friend, doctor, leader and colleague.
Well done @jongillgrass ! Fantastic effort!
Virtual @LondonMarathon done for @TeenageCancer ! I’m off for breakfast! Thanks for all the support @SheffieldRUFC & @SheffLadiesRUFC

Thanks to @jongillgrass for setting up my new desk and chair, ready for some “strategic” studying for the next Executive Masters in Medical Leadership module. Shame about the view of the skip and the building site that is the house currently.

Strategic planning fails if managers have a calculating not committing style; they need to engage people, have enthusiasm and lead to involve all. Makes sense from Henry Mintzberg @HarvardBiz @cassbusiness

Now the kids are back at school it’s back to uni for me; so excited to be getting back to the new semester @cassbusiness. Enjoying the reading from @HarvardBiz on “Strategic Management in Healthcare”.

Off they go ready to start new school years and learn what the “new norm” is at school. Grateful to @BirkdalePrep and @BirkdaleSchool for all the support over the last few months.

Last day of school holidays (and extended Covid break) for these two, I’m actually going to miss them!

So I’ve popped back to say hello, share what matters to me today and then say goodbye until September. Covid has changed me beyond belief but today what matters is my husband @jongillgrass and my 2 boys and we’re going to learn to live again!
Last day at work before a week off, first full week off since February, desperately in need of it, to fully enjoy it and keep Covid news exposure to a minimum I will be removing twitter from my phone for the week. Hope everyone stays safe and well. #selfcare
