Excellent article by Mick Clifford, Irish Examiner 19th November 2022. He writes about those executed in the name of the FREE STATE. The shame in Ireland is the power used by the FREE STATE to quell their opponents was the execution of nearly double the number of men than the occupier the British Empire had done at the time of the Rising in 1916. 1922 Erskine Childers held a pistol given to him by Michael Collins. He was executed 24th November 2022, 100 years ago and the anniversary day is approaching. Mick Clifford makes an interesting point not necessarily referring to Erskine Childers but if it had been De Valera who was caught with a pistol, like most of the men executed, would De Valera have suffered their Fate, in most cases … execution by firing squad.

TBI 30+ years ago; Sr Noreen and Sr Margaret, Mashambanzou, Harare, Zimbabwe took me under their wing. Their constant advice was “Rest Restores”. Years later I failed to heed their advice and returned to Trinity College Dublin and with the benefit of hindsight failed to regard just how important sleep is. Life taught me a lesson with Chronic Fatigue preventing me completing my final BESS exam and 6 years of chronic fatigue and drop dead exhaustions preventing me from engaging in life. I imagine people with Long Covid are experiencing a form of chronic fatigue. For me, it was worse than my experience with breast cancer, nearly 15 years later. There is short clip 5 minutes of Professor Walker on TED below but I recommend this video also.
