After 5months in hospital, mostly spent in ICU with over a month on ecmo, today is home time for my best mate. No competition, this is my highlight of 2020. Massively proud of Anu. 😁❀️πŸ₯°πŸ€©πŸ₯³β€οΈπŸ₯°πŸ˜β€οΈπŸ€©πŸ₯³β€οΈπŸ₯°πŸ˜β€οΈπŸ€©β€οΈ Today is a really fucking good day. #MegaProudCheerleader

Anu will say her own thanks in due course but here are a few of mine...

Firstly the icu team in @WythenshaweHosp including the fabulous @DrCliffShelton, the ecmo team in @WythenshaweECMO inc @Miko_Charleswor et al.

And my most memorable highlight. When my old reg from @RMCH_Theatres @LeDyslexicMedic helped her make a surprise WhatsApp video call from ICU when she was too weak to press the phone buttons. I think my surprised screaming may be etched on his brain forever. 🀣 #TotalLegend

(I’ve tried to get Noamaan an excellence report for this, if this hasn’t been possible can someone in @NW_Anaesthesia @MFTnhs please ensure it happens on my behalf πŸ’ͺ🏻)

And lastly my office buddy for the continued bantz throughout. Cheers @katezealley22 πŸ’ͺ🏻

Now if the lovely ppl of Manchester could stop pissing about, social distance and wear a fecking mask I might get to visit before the end of the yr. #TeamAnu πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸ₯°πŸ€©πŸ₯³πŸ€©πŸ₯³πŸ€©πŸ₯°πŸ˜πŸ’ͺ🏻😁🀩πŸ₯°πŸ˜πŸ₯³
