My daughter was taken ill with severe abdominal pain on Saturday morning and from the moment I contacted NHS Direct until she was discharged from A&E later that afternoon the service was superb.
The staff were unfailingly helpful, informative and professional.
As I was sitting waiting to hear the consultant's opinion I couldn't help but think that if I was a father in two thirds of the world I would be sitting beside my daughter helpless in the face of a massive infection which would almost certainly have killed her.
Thank you the NHS. Thank you the Royal Sussex.
