I fell off the pavement and broke my hip in Cornwall. The ambulance was diverted to the hospital in Barnstaple as the nearest hospital was backed up. I was in a lot of pain lying on the road in the rain for 2 hours. The ambulance crew from camelford were wonderful. The staff at Glossop ward bay 3 were absolutely wonderful. My op was delayed until the Sunday (fell Thursday evening). After the op I have nothing but praise for everyone on that ward that I came into contact with. From the cleaners right up to consultant. Food was wonderful too. I came home on Thursday afternoon.
