General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

So very sorry to hear of your problems, Peter. I do hope Yvonne has been seen and assessed and that’s she’ll be back home with you very soon.

I was in A&E, and its associated Medical Assessment Unit over Christmas for five days, only being released on Boxing Day, but it was relatively quiet, so I honestly can understand your worries, but it just goes to show how massively different each day can be for them.

From what you’ve said though, the ambulance crews must have reached critical mass in trying to despatch their patients into medical care. This has to be caused through mis-management somewhere along the line, which is of no comfort to you right now.

I can fully understand your frustrations, but I promise you, the staff there are incredible and will do everything they can to keep her comfortable.

It’s very concerning when a loved one has to be admitted to A&E, and your love, strength and dedication for her is a very powerful thing, which she’s had from you for the many years I’ve known you on Wigan World.

Please let us know how things go, Peter. We all want the best for you both.

Take care.
