"Death of my step father"

My step father died today in the intensive care unit of the Royal Bolton, after a short illness. He had spent 3 nights on a ward, before being transferred for 2 nights in the ICU. All of our family were impressed with the kindness and professionalism of all of your medical and nursing staff, both on the ward and in ICU. We felt that his medical care was very thorough but without getting into aggressive medical treatments that could have been distressing for him, and of little potential value even if successful. At a time of great upset for the family, we were allowed time to be with him, privacy, and wonderful support. We were all very grateful. Please pass on our sincere thanks to your staff.
