ποΈ It's the last day of #SepsisAwarenessMonth. However, we should be looking out for signs of sepsis all year. If you have #CKD, are on dialysis or have had a kidney transplant, you're more at risk of developing sepsis

@873Meredith That's lovely! I would love to get a reply, but I know I probably won't. It's just nice to say thank you to the family for what they have done isn't it π
Just chose a nice writing set for my organ donor's family. It took a long time to find one just right, it's probably going to be the most important letter I write, so it has to be perfect! #organdonation#transplant#nhs
