“…Across social and health geography, studies illustrate, for example,'behavioural momentums' whereby for example, one human activity (such as drinking alcohol, taking drugs or undertaking casual labour) leads onto another (such as casual sex) with health implications (such as Hepatitis or HIV transmission) (Luginaah 2008;Mkandawire, et al 2014). In studies of ageing, however, human momentums are typically less behavioural and more circumstantial, either about the momentums that build as older people move -or are moved -spatially between care settings and services of increasing comprehensiveness in line with their changing physical and mental health (although studies focus primarily on the transitions themselves and their consequences (Magilvy et al, 2000;Reed et al, 2003;Lee et al, 2013). Elsewhere the momentums in the daily lives of people with chronic health conditions are a popular concern of social and health geography (Moss, 1997;Moss et al, 2003), these studies conveying how, in many cases, people' s lives might be more appropriately characterized by being'stuck'or'immobile'(lacking in momentum) or indeed'shrinking' (possessing momentum in an unwanted and reverse direction) (Dyck, 1995;Crooks 2007).…”
