About: Royal Aberdeen Children's Hospital / Play Service

(as the patient),

I have been in hospital for over 2 weeks already getting tests done I’ve been very sad and scared but Sarah from the play service has helped me a lot I’ve been asking her for lots of jobs I can help with and she has helped me do lots of arts and crafts. We made a how you feeling wall that I really enjoyed helping with. Sarah and Lindsey have really helped to take my mind off of all the tests and make me feel happier. Thank you Sarah and lindsey

Dear Princesspaige

So sorry to hear you have been in hospital for so long feeling scared and sad. It isn't much fun when you are ill but am glad that Sarah and Lindsey have been giving you lots to do to help keep you busy and not have to think about your tests too much. I was curious about your how you feeling wall so went and had a look and it is amazing - Well done. This will help lots of other children express how they are feeling so that we can help.

I hope you are home by now and feeling much better.

I will ensure Sarah and Lindsey get a copy of your feedback
