Pauline’s symptoms were fobbed off as IBS for a year because of her age. By the time her bowel cancer was diagnosed it was stage 4. Her liver was full of cancer. The amount of young bowel cancer patients who have similar stories is shocking. This MUST change. #nevertooyoung

Discharged 5 years & 4 months after diagnosis of stage 3 bowel cancer - it was in my lymph nodes plus the highly undesirable B-RAF mutation. Get tested if you have something weird happening in your bowels, or even if you haven’t. I had none of the usual symptoms

IA is very sad to share the news of the recent death of Professor Neil Smart, PhD, FRCS, one of our Trustees and co-chair of our research subcommittee. Neil was an extraordinary human being and a brilliant and technically gifted surgeon, Read full tribute iasupport.org/professor-neil…

‘Normalisation of deviance’ was a term used after tragic Challenger Shuttle disaster when pre-flight issues were accepted by NASA Patients on trolleys in corridors has also become ‘normalised’ Cutting corners to save time or effort is another example that can impact on safety

A giant of our clinical and academic specialty, & filled with human kindness. A champion for patients. He will be sorely missed by so many around the world. @ACPGBI and @ColorectalDis are indebted to Neil & we will make a formal statement after due thought & discussion. RIP Neil

The ever questioning ⁦@Neil_J_Smart⁩ happiest when the 🚁 is on the ground - unhappiest when he asked what if engine cuts out…so the pilot did - became a glider as he squealed “switch it back on” - Hard to believe he hated heights & flying 🤣 - so many stories #RIP mate

Smarty always said that the first thing I ever said to him was, "You're the red crochtless knicker man" which, to be fair, sounds like something I'd say! This photo will never get old 😍

Please feel free to share nice stories or photos of Neil, there’s lot of great stories coming out that can allow us to reflect and smile in such a difficult time

Our friend @Neil_J_Smart has given his final lecture, the apprentices learning from his wise words, great times, & hard work - patients getting the very best. Legacy exists in the actions of those that follow & the stories continuing to be told & yes mate, “You did good” RIP
