Happy 70th to the NHS, without you I wouldn't be alive today. From being diagnosed with aortic stenosis at 3 and all the check-ups that followed, the broken arm the day before I started P3 because Simon Donnelly missed a penalty, cracking my skull on a school unit in P5, cracking my elbow on my way from the changing room to the football pitch, going through 5 heart operations in the space of 2-and-a-half years, helping with my mental health as far as they could, to rushing me from my work in an ambulance when I had what was thought to be a TIA and putting me through all the tests to make sure I was ok before considering the care they've giveb my friends and family when they needed it and asked for so little 7n return, the NHS has done so much for me and my family and I will forever be grateful for it. The work it does is even more remarkable when you consider that the Health Secretary is a man whose job is to start dismantling this wonderful organisation in order for his pals to line their pockets. As Johnny Vegas said recently on The Last Leg "If we don't fight for the NHS we lose ourselves as a country." #happy70thnhs #handsoffournhs
