Families caring for adult offspring with intellectual disabilities “don’t want sympathy, they want certainty, they want to know that their children will be safe, valued, and loved, when they are gone” — @GaryGannonTD #Disability #BeforeWeDie #IEPOL share.google/i69IlkQbQE6zrQ…

I'm still looking for minimal part-time work during weekday school hours. Even just 10 - 15 hours a week. Remote / phone work preferred due to my health considerations. Hoping #jobfairy #Ireland will be able to help 🙏🏼 💜


One for the #covidcautious community A family member in the UK was asking me about long covid, as he and his son are experiencing weird symptoms following a “cold”. I asked him if they got PCR tests, and he said “what’s that?” Are they called something different in the uk?

Not enough people in Ireland demanding Novavax. FFFG “let them eat Pfizer” @SinnFein @SocDems @paulmurphy_TD et al seem to have given up on people who cannot take MRNA vaccines.

Where's our Novavax? Why are you marching Irish people especially women in 40s into long COVID ? Why are you continuing to march Irish children into Type1 diabetes and cardiovascular harm etc? While hospitals break overcrowding records? @ccohse @BernardGloster @CarrollJennifer

I meant to tell you that there is an Irish bar in Rome called The Hole. Yes, The Hole. You read that correctly. Only the Irish will get why this is funny. They do a bloody good Martini. So good I had two. 🍸

May be able to access marginally expanded services, but can their households afford to heat the home? Are Beans on Toast 5 days a week healthy? Shameful lack of understanding of lives of families of "permanently Incapacitated" citizens. Nothing has changed since this pic.

Budget 2026 delivers a major step forward for disability services. We believe that disabled people should be able to access the right services, at the right time, and within their communities. Budget 2026 is the first step in making that a reality



“Performative” #FFFG values #WhoCares

Oh I think they understand alright, knowing full well that most carers are caring fulltime, so can't work elsewhere & 'take up' the increased allowance. It's performative, but useless in most cases 'look how we are helping carers' PR for a public who accept it at face value.



Where is @ShaneBeattyNews ? Breakfast briefing is just not the same without him #ntfm

What @daracalleary et al need to understand is that many #carers CAN'T work outside the home in paid employment because they are working literally 24/7 caring for their disabled loved one, especially if profoundly disabled. I was in that situation for years. @ProfoundIreland

Minister Dara Calleary TD, has today announced a Social Protection Budget package worth over €1.15 billion including record increases in the Carer’s Allowance weekly income disregard. The full list of Budget measures is available at Gov.ie/DSPBudget2026

Thinking of the families of Mark, Louise & Evan O’Connor as they are laid to rest. It’s the saddest day for their families & for the disabled community. Mark was a true advocate. Louise was the love of his life & Evan was his treasured son as were his other sons. Rest in peace.💔

Catherine Connolly, Oct 2020: I actually feel nauseated by language being turned on its head. It's time to stop talking about the vulnerable women. They weren't vulnerable, they were strong, vivacious women who were made vulnerable by the system, who were demonised by the system.

Tony Murray’s frustration has led him to establish a group called 'Before We Die’ to lobby politicians about the care of adults with disabilities, but when he called a meeting of 15 local politicians, 8 did not even reply #Disability #WhoCares

Ageing parents caring for children with disabilities via @RTENews really excellent article on the reality of the awful fear of dying before our children because of the worry of what will happen to them without us⁦@AilbheConneelyrte.ie/news/2025/1001…

This⬇️⬇️ Not only will they *not* look after you, they will mock your efforts to avoid further disability, and tell you you’re anxious

The people who are telling you not to mask will not look after you if Covid disables you.

Condolences to all who loved them from all of us at Profound Ireland. A devastating loss for their family and all in the disability community

Such a horrific act and devastating loss. Mark O'Connor was a long-time #disability advocate, his wife Louise was a qualified nurse & volunteer, and their son Evan was autistic with special needs. Such a senseless, brutal tragedy. RIP 💔 @ProfoundIreland thejournal.ie/louth-stabbing…
