A privilege, honour and joy to see such happiness
A Merry Christmas indeed 💙

#t1diabetes is so rarely like this, I'll enjoy it while it lasts.
Personal health update!! Tomorrow I have a phone call with a clinical trial doctor about beta cell replacement in regard to #T1Diabetes to see if I qualify. Beta cell replacement restores insulin production, potentially reducing or eliminating the need for injections.
Exciting! 🥰

So I’d never wish T1Diabetes on anybody, but I wish a lot of people could have it for like a day. Mostly for inside joke purposes.

Throwback to 2017😊
Year or so in my role as #T1Diabetes lead role with NHS England
It’s crazy to think that since then?
There has been:
4 Prime Ministers
5 Sec of State for Health
2 CEO for NHSE
2 MDs for NHSE
And am still the #T1D lead
Like Hugh playing Wolverine
Happy Friday 😎
