"My husband"

About: Victoria Hospital / Accident & Emergency

(as a relative),

Last Wednesday 2nd December, my husband was taken by ambulance into A and E at Victoria Hospital Kirkcaldy. I wasn't allowed to go with him, but at 9pm the staff let me go in.

He had got so much worse and we knew the end was near. The senior doctor on duty was named Rajenda, what a kind man, his nursing staff that night, I believe one was Sheila, and I'm sorry to say I don't remember  the name of the young nurse that helped carry my husbands clothes back to our car. Alison (a surgeon) tried in vain to help my husband, but he passed away. Rajenda was there instantly to talk me through what happens at the time of passing, he comforted me, and helped support me as did his nurses.

Unfortunately, I left through another door and didn't go back to say THANK YOU or bye. PLEASE tell them how much they helped me and thank them for their care of my husband, Steve.
