"I need not have been nervous about my cataract surgery"

I was very nervous while waiting for my cataract surgery but I need not have worried. Everyone was wonderful and could not have been kinder.
A nurse held my hand during surgery and the surgeon chatted to me while he operated which meant that it seemed like no time at all before I was sitting up ready to go home.
My heartfelt thanks to the team!
