             "There’s definitely a stigma around stomas. People think, 'I don’t want to have a stoma, I’d rather die'. But actually, it’s a different quality of life, but it’s still a quality of life." Watch Susan's story for our #auguts campaign.  https://t.co/cPWd2SHf2S

             We cracked open a bottle of fancy fizz last night in tribute to the wonderful @Neil_J_Smart who loved posh bubbles and was incredibly generous, not only with the congratulatory bottles he gifted but his time, energy and support of so many. I owe Neil a lot & am forever grateful.

             You blink and suddenly you have two amazing semi-adults who are the best company on holiday, wanting to adventure and see the world together. I can't understand where the last 10-15 years have gone. Parenting is wild.

             Disruptive behaviour in surgical teams is unacceptable—it puts patients at risk and harms colleagues. It’s time to act. Our guidance will help you identify, prevent and address these behaviours in the workplace. Learn more:  https://t.co/SDCCeT8tUA
