I HAVE just spent 18 days in what I consider the best hospital in the UK, namely Royal BoltonHospital. I was completely overwhelmed by the kind and loving care given to me. I shall be eternally grateful to everyone on ICU and ward E3, they are all wonderful people. So Bolton people need to know how lucky they are. Incidentally, no matter what other people say, the food was excellent.
