Here’s a video I made breaking down my perspective on what happened to Damar Hamlin on January 2nd, 2023. He has now officially come out and confirmed the diagnosis. Retweet to spread awareness.

Happy 90th birthday to RCUK founding member Prof Douglas Chamberlain. RCUK’s Prof Jerry Nolan: “He has been at the forefront of resuscitation for over 50 years. His opinion is respected by experts worldwide and he is the most delightful, modest man you could ever wish to meet.”

I’m signing off with a feeling a pride tonight. The superstars of this nation lie in local communities. Even after taking the biggest hits you have wrapped your arms around your community to catch children as they fell. I really can’t thank you enough, you’re amazing ♥️
