I WISH to express my heartfelt appreciation to the consultant and nurses on Ward 23 at Burnley General Hospital and the staff looking after my mentally handicapped and autistic son, who spent a week in the intensive care unit - just before Christmas.
The nurses had a large printed sheet, compiled by the staff taking care of him, so that they could communicate with him by signs and gestures - very heartwarming.
Name and address received.
