Well done NHS

Talk about non-Bongo stuff. BUT KEEP IT CLEAN....there are children watching. Smut, filth, and anything offensive will not be tolerated and removed immediately.

Well done NHS

Post by teenmal » Sun Mar 04, 2018 6:04 pm

A BRAVE surgeon walked EIGHT miles in treacherous weather, battling snow and wind, to operate on a cancer patient.
Andy Renwick revealed an unnamed colleague made the two-hour and 50-minute journey from Anniesland in Glasgow to Paisley.

The Scots colorectal surgeon said: “I won’t give her name as she would be genuinely upset with me.
“It took her two hours and 50 minutes. She came in with snow goggles on, Gore-texed up, with snow shoes and walking poles.
“She was operating on someone with bowel cancer. She knew that had to be done and made extra effort to get in to ensure that was delivered.”
Other medics worked non-stop as the storm raged outside, with many spending the night sleeping in their hospitals.
Helen Watson, a nurse at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Glasgow, said: “Patients who are very ill have been asking us if we are all right and thanking us for coming in to care for them.
“That makes it all worthwhile.”

Dedication =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

Agree 100%. =D>

And this is just one report of complete dedication, there will be many thousands of similar acts un-reported.

Big thankyou to all who went the extra mile during the bad weather. =D>

Not only NHS staff who have gone above & beyond the call of duty, also those with Landys & other capable 4x4's who have offered themselves, vehicles & fuel bills in service to the community, not to mention farmers etc who have been fantastic at clearing roads. Now that it is melting, no doubt the country will be looking for assistance from small boat owners. Isn't it funny though, how in spite of head high drifts, closed roads, gale force winds & now the start of flooding, reporters always manage to get through when nobody else can?
