My dad has been in Brighton General Hospital for four weeks with a brain tumour.

He is in ward C2 and the staff and doctors have been kindness itself. I thank them. Nothing is too much trouble, although they are short-staffed.

One of the male nurses even got dad a TV to pass the time with. I wish I could win the Lottery to show my real appreciation since they are so poorly paid.
