Dear Editor:
When did you last hug a Lions Gate Hospital staff member, or for that matter an employee of any other hospital?
I am remiss for it was a long time ago. However, all that has changed as I embrace the LGH staff after my recent knee replacement operation.
Within a week of returning home I was able to negotiate all the rooms in my home without the use of crutches or a walker.
My treatment — I am in my 80th year — speaks volumes to the talent and compassion of the plethora of staff involved. From the sublime skills of Dr. Alan Baggoo to those who dextrously manoeuvred me in gurneys along the labyrinth of corridors, everyone strove to give his best.
Ladies and gentlemen of LGH, take a bow.
