Signing up to the organ donor register is simple, telling your family too is important as they need to know your wishes should the worst happen. Donor organs transform lives and can bring comfort after tragedy . Every week I see donor organs transform and save lives. #OrganDonationWeek

Today is Aortic Dissection Awareness Day. Know the signs. Sudden, severe chest, back or abdominal pain is a typical symptom of aortic dissection. But some cases are painless or present in unexpected ways. Sometimes the only signs are neurological, such as sudden weakness or collapse.

A third of nurses and a third of doctors were born overseas. Without immigrants the NHS would collapse. You are more likely to be treated by an immigrant than to be behind one in a queue. Massive underfunding of our NHS and lack of social housing were a political choice.
