Excellent insignts from @DrDSelvarajah Painful DPN is associated with increased mortality, poorer q.o.l but definitely needs better ICD coding in our health care systems.

Once in a Lifetime by @solomon19400, a motivational poem for the #ThreeLions team #ENGMEX #BBCWorldCup @EnglandFootball @DrDSelvarajah @GordonSloan9 @Ahmed742Iqbal @SeegoolamZaid @BBCSport @BBCSheffield @GaryLineker @SharonCaunt @DrAndrewWasfy @England @RobHarris ​The tactical boards are cleared away, the roaring crowds are set, But history isn't written by the things you might regret. Eleven shirts upon the grass, the nation holds its breath, For skills can only take you to the edge of life and death. The tactics and the training grounds have brought you to the door, But individual brilliance cannot settle up the score. ​Look back to old Brian Clough, the magic that he spun, With ordinary players, yet the greatest prize was won. It wasn't just the pedigree, the passing, or the pace, It was the fiery spirit that they carried in that space. And see how small Cape Verde played, with nothing left to fear, No doubt inside their shadows, just a vision crystal clear. ​Forget the heavy altitude, forget the blinding heat, Those excuses are for losers who anticipate defeat. The talent in this England squad is written in the stars, But victory belongs to those who conquer their own scars. A tournament is won inside the chambers of the mind, In the focus and the fury that you leave the rest behind. ​For seasons come and seasons pass, Like shadows on the summer grass. But windows open only wide enough to let you through, A once-in-a-lifetime destiny is waiting now for you. ​So, step onto the pitch today, express yourselves and play, Cast off the weight of yesterday, and sweep the fear away. You only get this moment once to stand up and deliver, To carve your names in history and make the stadium shiver. Go fight for every blade of green, let courage be your friend, Go make all England happy, boys, and bring it home again. ​With eagle eyed focus, hold it tight before it’s gone, The fleeting light of victory before dawn. For rare is the magic we cannot bind, The once-in-a-lifetime chance for immortality we rarely find. Solomon Tesfaye @solomon19400 , 5th July 2026

A moment of pride for me after supervising and mentoring a brilliant medical student(Nicola) who gave an oral presentation on implication of frailty on mortality in diabetic foot disease patients.@solomon19400 @sheffielduni @GordonSloan9 @DrDSelvarajah @Shef_Research – at Birkenhead, England
