"A big thank you from me to everyone in the Hospital"

About: East Surrey Hospital / Accident and emergency East Surrey Hospital / Oncology East Surrey Hospital / Respiratory medicine

(as the patient),

I was flying back from Lanzarote and did not feel well on flight. I apparently had pneumonia. I was very sick I was taken to Tilgate ward after a day and while there my other lung collapsed due to cancer but everyone from doctors to nurses to the ladies and gents that brought round the tea were fantastic. I have been to many hospitals, even worked in A@E but this was far the best hospital I have ever been in for care and dedication. And the meals what a great choice to give your patients. sadly my cancer is terminal but they did everything to get me home where I am now living with permanent oxygen. This is a big Thank you from me to everyone in the Hospital.
