"Felt just a small holiday"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / General Surgery

(as the patient),

Firstly went back to my hospital due to being so much pain after operation. My doctor, Miss Phillips decided, to take me for an overnight stay in wishaw. For an observation to ward 16. Went there in mid march 2025.

The nurses treated very lovely. Felt a shame for asking for help with shower at the end of my 20s. Lovely lady helped me, was the best thing I ever had since Monday operation day.

The next day had to ask again, lovely man helped me get a shower just before been submitted back home. Not even got a chance to thank them at the end, they went for a break or even get their names. Got back home, was still in pain, the next day, seems the new painkillers started to work. Bit driven away into a second world with painkillers.

Thank you so much, much appreciate for all the help I received. That one night stay was the best thing ever happened in last few months, since my accident. Felt just a small holiday. ❤️❤️❤️
