WE often hear negative comments about our NHS. I would like the chance to put the positive.

I have been in the hands of our NHS for the past seven months and have had the very best of care.

I would like to thank Mr D Alexander and Mr Aghahoseeni and all their team, Diane, Gillian, Jackie, and Lesley and all staff on ward 16 of York Hospital.

I would also like to thank the cancer care centre York, Dr Sebag Montefior, Mrs J Acharya and all radiotherapists at Cookridge Hospital, Leeds.

Last, but not least all my family and friends, thank you all so very much.

Margaret Chilton,

Danum Drive,

Fulford,
