What a super proud personal moment this evening

As Anushka embarks on her evening on stage... into the limelight ...in the Big Apple...πŸ’•

A little bit extra special, as I know Ma, with all her love of art?

Would have been absolutely over the moon today at what her granddaughter has achieved πŸ’•

How did the #UK lead a nationwide shift in #Type1Diabetes care?

πŸŽ™Prof. @parthaskar.bsky.social shares how #CGM & hybrid closed-loop access scaled nationwide & why patient voices & data changed everything.

A must-watch for HCPs, policymakers, and diabetes advocates.

One picture to define the year 2024 for me

A year of sinking into work to forget the grief of Ma

And wrapped with love and kindness from those living with #T1Diabetes

A treasure-forever more
(TAD 2024, Liverpool)

Thank you to all of you in the #T1D community for being there for me πŸ’™

Today?
Is the birthday of Stan Lee

We all know him for the superheroes he created …Spider Man, Iron Man, Black Panther, The Hulk…and many more

He also said β€œthis” about racism and bigotry

Oh my goodness...

Having a pet toy bear named after you is one thing..

A whole poem from a mum who has a #t1diabetes kid?

A whole new level of emotion

It has been & is a privilege to serve such an incredible community

December will be a tough month...

I hope She sees this -wherever she is ❀️

If you have #T1Diabetes
As per the #T1DIndex from β€˜Breakthrough T1D’

As regards β€˜healthy years of life it takes from people living with #T1D?

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ now has one of the LOWEST - globally

How about that 😊

More to do - yet much to celebrate too

Onwards πŸ’™

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 😎
