A tip from this session that I haven't heard of are shaping molds that can make pureed food look like the food it is supposed to be. Like a pile of peas. If anyone has experience with this, I would like to hear how it went! pureefoodmolds.com #NeuroPalliative #HAPC26 #HAPC #Palliative #Dysphagia

WIST Quotations Has Moved!Apr 2, 2025

A quotation from Bertrand Russell

A man may feel so completely thwarted that he seeks no form of satisfaction, but only distraction and oblivion. He then becomes a devotee of “pleasure.” That is to say, he seeks to make life bearable by becoming less alive. Drunkenness, for example, is temporary suicide: the happiness that it brings is merely negative, a momentary cessation of unhappiness.

Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Conquest of Happiness, Part 1, ch. 1 “What Makes People Unhappy?” (1930)
