In May 2008 at the age of 29 I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, yesterday I was officially discharged. If not for the care, treatment and support I received over the past 10 years I would not be here and I thought this the best forum to express my gratitude to all staff that I have been involved with over the years.
Doctors and Practice Nurses (Sandra, Jill and Dianne) at Barns Medical Practice in Ayr
District Nurses who cared for me following my operation
Mr Simpson (now retired) who performed my operation now Mr Bhattacharya and his team, the radiographers who give me a yearly mammogram which was at Ayr now at Crosshouse
All the oncology staff in Ayr (who gave me my chemotherapy) and staff at the clinics in Crosshouse Hospital where I attended yearly appointments, the ward clerks who are very understanding of patients attending appointments and their anxieties. The Breast Cancer Specialist Nurse, Dr Lumsden, Dr Scott and all the staff who gave me radiotherapy at The Beatson.
I don't think enough praise is given to all the staff that care for hundreds of cancer patients on a daily basis, they are all quite literally life savers. I look forward to moving on to the next chapter of my life thanks to them all.
"Not enough words to express my gratitude"
