My six month at Blackburn royal

"My six month at Blackburn royal"

About: Royal Blackburn Hospital / Cardiology Royal Blackburn Hospital / Respiratory medicine

(as the patient),

I was admitted to Blackburn Royal in 2015 with pneumonia heart failure and septicaemia. I subsequently slipped into a coma, my family being told there was no hope but critical care brought me through. They were brilliant! I then spent time in cardiac care, were again they kept me alive even when my lungs collapsed and my heart valve failed. Following this, I was moved to B12 and this ward was absolutely Magic. The care medical and personal was better than I could ever have hoped for from the sisters to the cleaner they did a superb job and I am sure I owe my life too all three of these wards and will be eternally grateful. When they transferred me to Blackpool for my open heart surgery they had work tirelessly to get me well enough and Blackpool took over and again they were brilliant.
