Wonderful cancer care

"Wonderful cancer care"

About: Borders General Hospital / Borders Macmillan Centre

(as the patient),

Was diagnosed a year ago with stage 4 metastasised breast cancer,  finding treatment, travel, needles all difficult.

Borders General Macmillan Centre arranged for me to have a CT scan, NM bone whole body,  and physiotherapy session all on one day.

Julie - cannula and radioactive,  John - Senior radiographer, and Louise for bone scan.   They were all so kind and efficient.

Also,  Sally the physio was absolutely wonderful very helpful. All in all, a day I was dreading was made not too bad at all.

Big thank you to Borders General,
