"Today is my last treatment and I have sat in front of this screen on and off for the past hour trying to compose my thoughts to put down on paper. All I have come up with is thank you – they seem such small words however, THANK YOU
For your warm welcome
For your concern
For your patience when I was emotional
For your patience when I was not listening properly
For your plain speaking
For you're easily understood explanations
