This #MothersDay I think of a special lady,a lady I haven’t met but because she said yes to #organdonation when her son passed away, I live. Thinking of my donor’s Mum today & may she be given comfort from knowing that by saying yes she allowed life to live on.💕NHS Organ Donation💗🫀🫁

March is autoimmune awareness month. Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a rare autoimmune condition in which the body attacks the cells lining the bile ducts within the liver as if they are foreign to the body itself, i.e., attacking its own cells. #PBC #AutoImmune #Liver
