Death is still a taboo subject.
Guest editors on @BBCr4today raising the taboo of death and grieving, something we struggle to talk about here in the UK. A great listen

"We've not spoken about grief enough before we have to confront it"
Hannah, Cenya and Huzaifah used their #R4Today guest edit to discuss what it's like losing a relative at a young age.
They were joined by Sir Andrew Strauss, whose foundation supports families with bereavement.

There are lots of books out there on gynae health, so we thought we would compile some of Team Eve's favourites!
Here is a selection of six books that are recommended by some of the staff at The Eve Appeal- all focussed on gynae health.

A veces intentamos empujar cosas cuando la base no está ahí. Las organizaciones necesitan trabajar en las actitudes de la gente, no en los procesos. #IriaLopez @common_org @talkingtaboos

In the UK,
- In July 2014, @eveappeal, a women's cancer research charity, conducted a survey with 1000 women. It revealed that 65% of young women (18-25 years old) felt uncomfortable using the words vagina or vulva. (2/11) #TalkingTaboos

"When we tell people how we feel, sometimes they'll say: 'I feel your pain.'
But - what if someone really could feel your pain?"

Telling your daughter her vulva is her vagina is like telling your son he has testicles and no penis and then just calling his penis his testicles cos you think saying penis as well is too much. It’s just a word. Vulva. Hard for me to say too, but that’s cos of history. Say it x
