Dear Editor:
I am a senior citizen. On Jan. 2, I experienced dizziness and fell down and became unconscious. Fortunately, it was a public holiday, so my son and daughter were at home and called an ambulance.
I was rushed to Burnaby Hospital and was admitted to the emergency centre, where I was put on the bed with an oxygen mask. Within a minute a doctor arrived and put me under his care.
With all the negative news about our health-care system, I would like to thank the doctors, all the nurses and staff for their kindness and empathy towards me.
Abdul Jeray, Burnaby
