MAY I give my thanks to the NHS? From the moment my wife picked up the phone there was a person on the end of the line to reassure her that all would be done that could be done.

Hardly had the phone been put down than the ambulance crew was at the door. In spite of the exacting job, the crew members had a smile and joke.

The overflowing notice board of thank-you cards on Harvey ward, at Princess Alexandra Hospital gives the testimony of other people's feelings.

Once again, thank you all concerned with my stay in the hospital.

F W RUSSELL,

Fesants Croft,
