Day 16: Exciting news this morning - Iβm going home today! I am free of my telemetry monitor & leads; I wonβt miss the view from my bed but sunrise from my window is memorable. Thank you @PHU_NHS to all your amazing staff π

The worst aspect of my hospital stay is that every patient I have interacted with is vehemently anti-migrant & cite Daily Mail headlines as their sources. Yet the Coronary Care Unit @PHU_NHS has a brilliantly diverse staff to whom these patients owe their lives.
Nearly 500 migrants successfully illegally crossed the channel yesterday to Britain as huge numbers continue after Labour axed Rwanda scheme - bringing total so far this year to 19,066

Day 10 in the Big Brother Hospital: .Whilst I was watching Inside No9 on @BBCiPlayer the nurses moved me to a different bed - guess which number?.Lovely Remembrance ceremony at 11am outside my window and my view of Portsmouth is rather lovely β€οΈ @PHU_NHS

@parkrun Important update - the first 2 people to find me unconscious were Callum & Jake, off-duty lifeguards who also know a thing or two about CPR. A so-far unidentified nurse was also assisting. How lucky am I to have these heroes save my life?.Thank you all β€οΈ.

Apparently my first words after being resuscitated were βDid I scan my barcode?β.Thank you to the @Parkrun community & apologies for causing what mustβve looked a distressing scene.

Yesterday I was very lucky indeed. I completed the Bognor #Parkrun but went into cardiac arrest soon after, within metres of an off-duty paramedic & a defibrillator that had never been used before. The defib now has a 100% success rate & I will forever be in the debt of Alice β€οΈ

Spent an enjoyable but exhausting day @unisouthampton with my new PhD student cohort with the @SouthCoastDTP .My brain feels like a saturated sponge already. Great to bump into @lisa_sugiura en route who was important in my decision to apply.

For a Nelson geek like me, the @portsmouthuni PhD induction day @PHDockyard was tremendous - already looking forward to tomorrow.
