Had the best socially distanced dinner with the amazing @conjonsilver92 yesterday and it really cheered the entire Davies Clan up on a bad day 💛 our garage is currently the hottest restaurant open to us 😂! I’m forever grateful that I met one of the most important people in my life in a urology waiting room all those years ago; we were the youngest people there by a long shot, and in my typical chaotic fashion I arrived trying to carry two handmade thank you cards for my drs covered in glitter glue that hadn’t dried 🙈😂 Connor (and his amazing family and friends who have pretty much become my family and friends) has made such a difference to my life and who I am today that I’m certain I’d be a very different person without his friendship, encouragement, support, bravery, kindness, humour, and unwavering love ❤️ He’s the type of person who will tell you to call him into he middle of the night if you’re struggling even though he’s working ❤️ People talk about soulmates in the romantic sense, and whilst I think a soulmate can be romantic, I also believe there are people you’re just meant to meet, people you’ll instantly click with, who are just meant to be in your life. The universe knows you’re meant to know and love one another in some way, and that by doing so you’ll shape each other’s lives for the better ❤️ Connor James, I’m immensely lucky I get to know you. You’re my hero, every day. Love you millions ❤️❤️❤️ P.s. Not being able to give you a hug is the hardest thing in the world! #ilovemybestfriend❤️ #sociallydistanceddinner #friendshipinthetimeofcovid19 #ourgarageisbetterthanyours #luckytoknowyou☘️💕 https://www.instagram.com/p/CBYnuwTjxX7/?igshid=13jgbpvfkakn0

Some say kindness is a weakness. But in a world full of hatred and evil, it’s an undeniable Strength. Lets all try and be kind.

As always, I owe my thanks and deepest gratitude to the best friend and big sister a girl could dream of, the beautiful and bloody brilliant @mjenga10 💖 who, as she always is, was there on Sunday at @baftacymru to not so quietly (guys, she DROPPED the BAFTA 🙈😂!) support me. Jade made telling such a large and vital part of The Incurable Optimist possible, and is integral to my story; both to its telling onscreen, and it’s day to day continuation. She deserved to be there on Sunday to celebrate, and I honestly wouldn’t have wanted anyone else there in her place. We had an absolutely amazing night, one of the very best of my life, even though we both had to get up the following morning to go to work (Jade) and a hospital appointment (me) 🙈😂 we were definitely both rather wurst for wear on Monday! Thank you for such a fantastic night Jade... and thank you for being a huge part of what makes my life fantastic! You’re my hero, and I love you millions and billions and trillions 💖💚💖💚 #baftacymru #baftaawards #baftaswithmybestfriend #ilovemybestfriend❤️ #ilovemybigsister❤️ #bestbigsisterever❤️ #blessedtohaveyouinmylife #thankyou❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/B30GAuNhtar/?igshid=1roolesu3pawz

Love this dude more than words can say ❤️ even though I genuinely consider murder after about five minutes in each other’s company... that’s just how it is with big brothers! Been thinking about how lucky I am to have such an awesome best friend and adopted big bro who’s stuck with me, my crazy ass family, and our crazy ass life, through some truly shitty times, whilst also managing to enjoy a lot of truly amazing times, and who’s able to do something utterly wonderful; make the shitty days good, just by being there ❤️ I’m so very lucky 🍀 and so very blessed 🌟 Thanks for being you and for being so awesome Jakes 😎! #ilovemybigbrother❤️ #ilovemybestfriend❤️ #lucky #blessed #thanksfirstickingwithme #palliativecarefamily (at Llansamlet) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0VCfEehsBB/?igshid=s12h63z67dqb

Had an absolutely fantastic evening out with my awesome best friend and big sister @mjenga10 at Barry Island! We walked along the sea front, had The Best fish 🐟 n chips 🍟 sitting on the wall, walked along the beach 🏖, went on the Ferris wheel 🎡(other rides were vetoed due to both my cowardice and Jade’s concern about rollercoaster induced spasms/seizures 🙈😂), and enjoyed Barry Island’s famous doughnuts 🍩! This was my first ever adventure in Jade’s new car, pip, and I loved every second, including the drive along all the country roads that the Sat Nav took us along, and shouting encouragement at the car when going up hills 😂. For me, time with Jade is synonymous with three things; acceptance, freedom, and the ability to be just a little bit selfish. Jade’s complete and utter acceptance of me as a person, but also of my condition and how my condition affects every aspect of my life, is a gift I treasure. Her ability to deal with my condition, therefore allowing her to take me on adventures to places I’d miss out on otherwise, is a joy. And the fact that I know she always spoils me with choice when it comes down to what activities we do because she knows I spend the majority of my time taking other people into consideration (people I share carers with etc) when planning my day, is a true kindness. Today I got to do things that other people take for granted, but are a rare treat for me. I’m incredibly lucky to have such an amazing friend and sister in my life 💖 I can’t quite put into words just how much I admire and adore this amazing lady; she’s my hero, and I wouldn’t be me without her 💖 Thanks for an absolutely amazing evening of adventuring Jade!

She’s just, the best 😍💖 I am so blessed to have the utter privilege and joy of knowing and loving such an amazing human being 💖 who else is willing to hold my shoulder in it’s socket whilst I spasm during dinner on our holiday (it did actually dislocate, but it also relocated itself... the fun of spasms!)?! Thank you for an amazing first day @mjenga10 rainstorm and all ☔️!

There are some people you are quite simply meant to meet; they will come into your lives, and you will feel as if you’ve known them forever and always. You will feel entirely comfortable being entirely yourself with them. You will go on adventures with them, you will laugh with them, cry with them, live out all the highs and lows of life with them. They will shape who you are, who you become. They will bring you more light and laughter and love than you’d think possible. And you will thank every star 🌟 in the sky that they are a part of your life, because it is such a blessing, an honour, a privilege and a joy to know and love them ❤️ @jessicasweet4108 I’m so grateful you’re in my life. I wouldn’t be here today without your continued humour, kindness, patience, encouragement and support. You’re my sister and best friend, and I love you more than words can say 💖 thank you for being so amazing! #ilovemybestfriend❤️ #soulmatesandsistersforever #spooniesolidarity #knowingyouisablessing (at The Canton Cross) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByyZc0BhpVJ/?igshid=tzg8rhpn47oe

How do you know your best friend knows you, like, KNOWS YOU, right down to the centre of your soul and bones, possibly even better than you know yourself? When she buys you literally the exact same bracelet you bought yourself 🙈😂❤️😭! She bought it three months before I bought myself the exact same one, and I’d said nothing to her! I love my best friend and big sister SO MUCH 💖 and I literally couldn’t get through all the shit I deal with on a daily basis without her never ending love, encouragement, support, patience, kindness, and her confidence and belief in me and my abilities (which far surpasses my self belief). Her visit yesterday brightened up my whole day, improved my mood, encouraged me to talk to my mum about some difficult stuff, and just left me feeling better about life in general. She’s my superhero 🦸🏼‍♀️ my guardian angel 😇 and most importantly, my common sense 😂! Thanks for being such an amazing individual @mjenga10 !! Love you millions 💖💚💖💚 Keep fucking going 💪🏻💚💖 #keepfuckinggoing #keepfuckinggoingbracelet #ilovemybestfriend❤️ #ilovemybigsister❤️ #worldsbestbigsister #sheknowsmesowell❤️ #shesmyhero❤️ (at Cardiff) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByVRZBpBJFf/?igshid=1197l9nsj4fim
