I didn’t, and my own sister is one. Every doctor in the UK who doesn’t hold the title of consultant or fully qualified GP is a junior doctor. In other words: the person who took over the difficult delivery of your baby, the person who treated your child in A&E,…

It seems like it was only yesterday that the only words she could say were “Mama,” “Dada,” and “Peppa.” Now it’s all “I got bits!” and “Stop singing, Mummy!” My tiny person who thinks and farts is now a significantly less tiny person, who laughs and calls them “poopytoots”. She…

I’m Jenny
I started this blog in 2010 as part of my journalism studies and have been loudly overthinking here ever since.
