Me and cancer

"Me and cancer"

About: Belfast City Hospital / General Surgery General Surgery / Gardener Robb Day Procedure Unit (DPU) Royal Victoria Hospital / General Surgery

(as the patient),

3 and half years ago I was diagnosed with cancer(head and neck) and from that moment to the present, I've been treated like a vip, and have met so many wonderful people within the the NHS. Each and everyone I've met has taken a few steps with me along my cancer journey. Doctors, nurses, surgeons, radiotherapists, dentists, eye surgeons, etc and would just like to say a BIG thank you to all, for taking such good care of me. My journey is ongoing  but I'm in such  good hands I never worry, its hurts when I hear people knock the NHS, I'm just a nobody but made to feel special. Love and best wishes to you all.

Dear Fra1916,

My name is Máire and I am the Patient and Client Experience Facilitator in the Belfast Trust.

I wanted to talk a moment to thank you for leaving such kind words about the care you received from our staff in the Belfast Trust. It is heartening to hear that your treatment helped you to feel like a VIP at what I'm sure is a challenging time for you.

I would like to share your praise with the teams involved, as you say, they deserve the thanks for what they have given you so far.

I understand that your journey is still ongoing and I wish you the best going forward.

Many thanks again,

Máire Alexander
