A DIABETES patient who feared he would lose a limb has been awarded a medal after successfully managing his condition for half a century.

Denis Chirgwin of Malvern, a patient at Upton Surgery, has been awarded the Alan Nabarro medal for his efforts to live a full life with the condition after he was diagnosed as a teenager.

Mr Chirgwin and wife Shelley attended the ceremony on his 66th birthday at Upton Surgery.

It's always great to hear about everyone who achieves 50/60/70/80 years with diabetes as it gives encouragement to the newly diagnosed so nice find @Northerner 🙂
