Suffering from a sudden heart block, &taken to Watford General Hospital, within 25 minutes I was being examined and monitored. This was the Sunday before Xmas. After being allocated a bed, various doctors visited me throughout the night every hour. At 10.30 the day (Christmas Eve) following, I was taken to the operating theatre to have a pacemaker implanted. And at 5.30 I was allowed to go home with my family. The nurses were fantastic, some were working a 12 hour shift, but very polite and helpful. At one point prior to being put into the ward, they rang Hammersmith Hospital In order to transfer me there but they did not have a bed. Thankfully, Watford General Staff decided to keep me. Enjoyed Christmas Day with my wonderful family. At 90 years of age this has been a very wonderful Christmas and I cannot thank them all enough. They really really deserve more appreciation and a brand new hospital.Best wishes to them all. Thank you.
