@peps133 That's a shock. Your inspiring strength & positivity can make me lose sight of what a challenging journey you're on. Stay strong and remember how amazing chemotherapy is; and whenever you want to vent your frustration please do. All of us care deeply and are rooting for you.

@peps133 You're an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your journey. I freaking love seeing you triumphing!

How international the topics are is really important too, going beyond UK & US and having correspondents from the countries involved. What other forum does that? 🗺🤔

On #BBCDateline, @BBCShaunLey reminds us it ends soon. What a loss - intelligent discussion from across the political spectrum. I don’t agree with all guests but in my years watching only a handful seemed to not be there in good faith. We need more of this calibre of discussion!

@AmarChotai Thank you Amar - and thank you for your healing work! And I really like your song linked in your bio too 👏

This is incredible to see and read about! After my stroke I needed months of physio & OT, & I'm still regaining function 2 yrs later. It's awesome that this treatment could avoid most of the damage some strokes cause. 👏👏👏

Patient had a #stroke at 12 noon, playing with his grandchildren, dense right sided weakness. Successful mechanical thrombectomy and clot out within 3 hours. Patient reunited with grandchildren, completely normal, by evening. Feel very blessed🙏 #NHS #doctor #neurorad #MedTwitter

@lbkjj Thank you John, I appreciate that 😊
I remember meeting you on the ships all those years ago. I have really happy memories of my Seabourn time, might have to get the old band back together!
I hope you're both doing marvellously.

Thrombectomy saves brains and changes lives. But most people who need this treatment don’t get it - it's subject to availability. We want thrombectomy to be available to everyone who needs it, when they need it. Sign our open letter: https://t.co/gww7jUJGPq #SavingBrains

@LarissaHunter Oh my word Larissa, I've just had a look at your profile and got an inkling of what you're fighting! I didn't realise 😳
Your unstoppable energy is an inspiration, and it helps that you're sharing what you're experiencing ✨️

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

@waughzone Thank you Duncan 🙂
It's been a long time since we made music together... They were good times!

@CIWarren Hi Christine, you're so right about the effect of strokes on family. Because mine happened in lockdown, my family in 🇦🇺 couldn't be here. I've only recently got to visit so we could all work through it.

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

@LarissaHunter Thanks Larissa, I'm doing pretty well now 😊 I didn't intentionally keep the stroke a secret 😅 but it happened during lockdown when everyone had lots challenges and it was difficult to connect. So glad life's not like that now!

@AClassicalBelle Hi Marian, I sure have been through the mill - it tried to grind me down but I've been like a stone... stubborn 😂

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

@JanG4 Thank you Jan 😊 I hope everything's great with you all!

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

@chrikes That's lovely to hear, thank you. It was a great show and cast to be part of, and wonderful to have so much support from those of you that came often! 😊

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

@chrikes Thank you Cathy 🤗 It was a shock and I've had to take time to relearn things, but I'm fortunate how much has come back 😊 It's lucky I hung up my dancing shoes years ago though! 😆

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

@CazB82 This is a great milestone! I hope the flight went well and you're feeling proud of your achievement. Coincidentally, this week was my first flight since my stroke in Apr '20. I'm pleased I did so much (over)thinking to prepare; way more confidence now!

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

@M_J_H @iamlp @LeannePinder @scottjones01 This creation is stunning 🤩

[Lincoln Stone @LincolnStone]

Just watched & adored @ticktickboom. It's a love letter to musical theatre and its sacrifices. It's more powerful because of Larson's life and using his own writing. Great casting; Andrew Garfield's performance was esp uplifting & moving. If you haven't seen it, you should!

Powerful words from the wonderful David Tennant on why he's supporting our campaign to renationalise the NHS!!
