Taylor Swift wrote a song about my son, Ronan, after he died of cancer. She put me on as a co-writer, and donated the proceeds directly to pediatric cancer -no strings, no hidden motives, just pure compassion and integrity. In stark contrast, the Trump family engaged in significant fundraising efforts for children with cancer through the Eric Trump Foundation. However, reports later revealed that funds were used to pay Trump-owned properties for hosting fundraising events, raising concerns about conflicts of interest and self-dealing. What could have been a mission solely dedicated to supporting children in need became tainted by financial practices that appeared to benefit the Trump Organization, casting a shadow over the charitable intentions initially claimed. This election is a no-brainer. It’s a choice between compassion and corruption, between someone like Kamala Harris, who has spent her career fighting for justice, and Trump, who has exploited the vulnerable at every turn. Kamala has consistently shown a commitment to supporting communities and ensuring people’s rights are protected, while Trump and his family have even stooped to taking funds meant for children with cancer. If integrity, empathy, and basic decency matter, then this choice couldn’t be clearer. Supporting Kamala and her values means standing up for the kind of future where compassion isn’t just talk—it’s action. We owe it to ourselves and to the next generation to reject self-interest and stand on the right side of history.

Sad the Olympics is over? Me too. BUT the summer of sport isn’t over yet. We Paralympians have been waiting in the wings for our turn. A couple more weeks until the Paralympics start. Come join in our world & support the epicness. You won’t be disappointed. Promise 😉

I’m sorry … but no other country will ever do the opening of the Olympics as good as the British done in 2012 James Bond and the Queen 🇬🇧👍🏻 #OpeningCeremony

I’m starting a support group for people who didn’t see the Northern Lights last night. We are valid. Stop erasing our existence Any joiners This is our flag

I’ve said “good for the garden” and “nice weather for ducks” far too many times this month. It’s getting silly. In actual fact my garden is flooded and even the ducks look like they’ve had enough. Anyway, I look forward to complaining about it being too hot and dry this summer.

Ryan Reynolds wrote this about Michael J. Fox for the annual #Time100 ❤️ “It'd be kinda lazy to simply characterize him as the greatest champion of Parkinson's research on the planet. He's someone who helped my dad, along with millions of others, feel less alone.”

It's estimated that one in two of us will develop cancer at some stage in our lives. With cancer, there are no guarantees. However, from my experience over 50 years in medicine, here are ten tips which can help reduce that risk. 1. You are what you eat ‑ we run on what we put in. If it's processed junk, our health reflects that. That's not to say we can never enjoy a treat but there needs to be a balance. 2. A pandemic of obesity ‑ the consequences of being dangerously overweight are vast. An increased risk of cancer is part of that, as are serious heart and joint problems. 3. Healthy habits ‑ getting fit does not happen by accident. Studies show decreased risk of cancer for those who exercise regularly. It doesn't have to be a half-marathon or 90 minutes of football. Top tip? Walk, walk and walk some more. A massively underrated form of exercise, free and accessible. A dog can help as your trainer. 4. Moderation ‑ alcohol every now and again won't harm. But consistent, excessive consumption puts your body under extreme pressure, the liver in particular. I'm not suggesting you cut it out but slow down and show sense. 5. Less worrying ‑ the world is full of worries we can't change. Focus on what you can control. Stress can do horrible things. It can eat away at a person in ways we do not fully understand. Stress is a poison so anything you can do to reduce it will only be a positive. 6. Enjoy the sun safely ‑ being in the fresh air is great for health and I fully encourage it but when the sun is strong take correct precautions. Cover exposed skin or use suncream ‑ skin cancer is a horrid disease. Sun radiation damages cells. 7. Safe sex ‑ an awkward topic but ignoring it only makes the situation worse. Certain sexually transmitted infections play a huge role in the development of cancer, especially for women. It can affect the ability to carry a child and give birth. If you have sex with multiple partners, take precautions by using barrier contraception. 8. Smoking kills ‑ most tips have some ambiguity and the risks are not always clear-cut. Not smoking. It can cause cancer anywhere and it releases harmful chemicals into your body and the surrounding air. I have treated multiple heavy smokers for an entirely avoidable disease. 9. Early diagnosis ‑ sometimes it is not possible to prevent cancer but we can stop it growing if we catch it early. Screening lets us tackle it in stage one or two, with far greater survival odds and less complicated treatment. 10. Perhaps most importantly ‑ if you have concerning and persistent symptoms, get checked. Symptoms are diverse, but generally it continues over time and worsens. It's your health. Take responsibility for it!

@MMTMan Completely agree! Just rude

Hope Twitter can do its thing 🙏🏼Accidentally left my car boot open and have just lost a bag full of various playing jerseys onto the road in Cardiff. Lost between Big Yellow Storage on Penarth Rd and Cardiff Arms Park between 13.25 & 1335. Significant sentimental value 🥺
