This was me 11 months ago; standing for less than a minute with the help of a physio & a nurse. Through weakness, pain & nausea, I dreamt that I could #SwimBikeRun again Today I made it back to triathlon 🏊‍♀️ 🚴 🏃‍♀️ #BowelCancer #SurgeryMk2 #TRItanium #TacklingTheStomaStigma

When should we be doing #AdvancedCarePlanning? The answer is in the name… It shouldn’t be done in an emergency. All members of staff asked thought #ReSPECT was great but struggled to find a ‘good time’. *we won’t rob people of help, we can write down their wishes* #SOA2025

An important reminder - look beyond the patient and support the people around the patient, it’s this network which is key in helping the patient recover both psychologically and physically once discharged. #SOA25 #recoverybeyondsurvival @NCEPOD

Who should plug the deficit, benefit claimants or billionaires? While @RachelReevesMP is planning cuts to the long term sick & disabled #PIP MPs have got a 2.8% pay rise How can this be right? Clamp down on the cheats #TaxTheRich @Keir_Starmer @NadiaWhittomeMP @ZoeFranklinLD

8 years ago I woke up in the worst pain I’d ever been in after my stoma surgery, terrified what a future with a stoma would mean… Turns out I needn’t have worried 🙃💜 Happy 8th Stomaversary to my stoma that allows me to keep doing crazy things 🕶️ #TacklingTheStomaStigma
