THEN she brought tears to my eyes when she thanked ME for the time i had taken to show my appreciation (What THE????) Then said how excited she is to be able to go back to all the other staff at MMC, pass on the news about Flynn and that she had managed to tell me how grateful they all were.

So thanks to all of you
Thanks is such a small word but it means so much!

They deserve the praise as they do so an amazing job

There is a Krispy Kreme in Canberra (at the Westfield shopping centre in Woden).


Now back to the original topic - its always nice to be told that your work is appreciated but not very often that someone actually takes the time to tell you !!

Doctors and nurses (everywhere) do an amazing job and its nice that some of them have been told how much everyone appreciates their care and compassion.
