title: Turning back time.
abstract: I've spent an hour with Paula giving her much-needed support. She feels burnt out and utterly demoralised. She's counting the days towards retirement, and then she drops the bombshell. She's six younger than I am. She leaves, thanking me for listening, and saying: 'If I had my life over again I'd do it do differently. Wouldn't you?'
