Happy Christmas to Dr Mun Hoe Poon!

Human Granny very nearly didn't make it to the end of January this year. Thanks to the NHS, and especially to Dr Mun Hoe Poon, consultant in Geriatric Medicine at the Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham, she is still very much with us, and is now being well looked after at Westcliffe Care Home where she enjoys reading, keeping up with current affairs, receiving visitors and having the time to correspond with more distant friends and family by letters and email.

I was on my best behaviour when I visited yesterday at tea time, and was rewarded with one half of her custard cream biscuit.

    We hear such poor reports of the NHS in our press but we don't often take the time to celebrate our national treasure. Glad that HG was so well taken care of. She certainly looks well in this photo.

    Why in the States that means National Honor Society and they give out Scholarships and Awards to deserving students. Granny was a great student she got better. We are glad the National Health Service is working well.
    Send them over the pond please.
    Wishing you Bertie and your Human Granny a Merry Christmas
