A very big thank you to Catherine Bowdler for sharing your morning with me and a very small part of what is involved being a @cwpnhs complex case manager from MDT to patient visits. A humbling and valuable insight and good chat too about improvement opportunities.

Q: Why do obese people have higher rates of arthritis in their hands and shoulders?
A: Because arthritis is not just a condition of excessive loads on joints causing wear and tear!

We didn't have parties to "boost morale"
We didn't have quiz nights
We didn't have champagne
We watched our colleagues die though
We were STEEPED in death
We kept going
We had to
We kept on
So don't you DARE say your parties were "necessary" @borisjohnson
You make me sick.

These are the last 2 moments I spent with my dad. I didn’t see him at all in the 37 days between the 2 photos because I followed the rules set out by our Prime Minister. Rules he systematically & repeatedly broke for no good reason. #COVID19 #DowningStreetParties #JohnsonOut

My Top Tip of the Day:
Take a photo of your parent's remote controls. So whenever you get *that* phone call, you've got something to reference.
You might not fix their problem, but there'll be a lot less swearing.

I work as an emergency doctor in the NHS but can only save lives if I work alongside my 'skilled' colleagues, including nursing assistants, carers, porters and domestics. If they are asked to "retrain and get better paid jobs", there would be no NHS and no care. Simple!

A massacre.
An estimated ONE THOUSAND white-sided dolphins cruelly slaughtered in the Faroe Islands last night.

On #InternationalDogDay it's important to remember that a dog would never leave you behind. That's why hero @PenFarthing is trying to return the favour. #OperationArk

URGENT: Reports coming in of @PenFarthing & his @Nowzad team blocked from entering South Gate of #Kabul Airport, after already waiting over 10 hours. Please @BWallaceMP & @suhailshaheen1, coordinate your ground teams ASAP & allow them safe passage out, as promised. #OperationArk

We should all try to be one of those people we would want on our side when the chips are down. I can only hope I am.

I was 17 when I arrived in the UK from Lebanon
My first job was cleaning floors
I remember how it felt when I said good morning to people & they wouldn't respond
Today
I'm an NHS psychiatrist & I treat ALL colleagues with respect & greet EVERYONE regardless of their role
