Tale of two patients: one seen in minutes, the other goes home to bed

DURING a recent weekend break on the Beara Peninsula our cousin Paddy, who is almost 80, was suddenly taken ill.

We had to bring him to Bantry general hospital where, within a matter of minutes, he was admitted and put under the care of the nurses and doctors there.

Our sincere thanks to them for their civility, efficiency and professionalism.
