A journey through my grief of losing my child. The days will always be brighter because he existed. The nights will always be darker because he's gone.

As we approach World Sepsis Day on Saturday 13th September, I was happy to show my support for the The UK Sepsis Trust and I'm committed to helping my constituents in Mid Buckinghamshire become #SepsisSavvy so they can recognise the early signs of sepsis.

Ahead of World Sepsis Day on 13 Sep, Stuart Andrew and I met with The UK Sepsis Trust. Sepsis is an indiscriminate killer - affecting 245,000 people in the UK every year. We must spread awareness of how to spot early signs of sepsis. Find out more here: sepsistrust.org/about-sepsis/

Martha's Rule has been rolled out to every acute hospital in England. The patient safety initiative, driven by the family of Martha Mills, empowers patients and their families to get an urgent review of care if they feel their concerns are not being sufficiently addressed.

Brilliant to see the efforts of health organisations like Nuffield Health Warwickshire ahead of #WorldSepsisDay! Not only have they put together a great display but also a sepsis kit- including a card game and keychain!

En route to #HSJNationalPatient Safety Congress. Tmw I’m taking part in the Panel Preventing Deterioration & Avoidable Harm, Strengthening Paed Early Warning Systems (PEWS) for better detection & response. Always good to be part of the conversation about how we can all improve.

Lily, who was fit and healthy, thought she had freshers’ flu. But she developed #sepsis, and has since become a quadruple amputee. Our Head of Regions Terence Canning spoke to BBC Wales this morning about Lily’s story & Sepsis Awareness Month (1:42:00) 👇 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
