"I felt cared for, supported and loved"

I had 6 lagers on a Friday night after having pizza and garlic bread, which I took insulin for. I also consumed a couple of sleeping tablets.

I went to bed and my insulin plummeted while I was sleeping, putting me near death.

When I came into the hospital I was put into ICU, where I was frightened and very confused. The staff had to put me into an induced coma to help my body and mind recover. I was in the coma for 5 days. The staff tried bringing me round but my body was still agitated so the gave me some sedative to calm me down.

When I eventually came round, I had such a caring experience from every single member of staff on duty in the ICU.

I felt cared for, supported and loved. Even in my indignity the staff made me feel so comfortable it gave me dignity.

I owe all these beautiful people my life and they all will hold a very special place in my heart for the rest of my life.

I am happy to leave but also sad to leave these beautiful souls behind.

Thank you All so very much, I owe you my life. Xx
