On Wednesday, April 12, having done my shopping at the ASDA store at Brighton Marina, I unfortunately had a fainting turn while at the checkout.

I would like to say a big thank you to the lady who first spoke to me, and also several of the ASDA staff who stayed with me and sat me in a chair while I was waiting for the ambulance.

I give thanks to the crew, Katie and Craig, who did tests on me in the car park.

I was then taken to the A&E at the Royal Sussex County Hospital where I was again checked over by a nice student nurse, a staff nurse and a doctor.

I am very grateful to all who were involved with me at that time. They were very caring and kind people.
