Story
We are all shocked by what is happening to people across the world and that is now impacting on our own family. It is beyond belief that Carol and Harvey both went into hospital on Wednesday, were both tested positive for the virus and that Carol passed away on Sunday. Harvey remains stable. It is heartbreaking for us all that we have not been able to be with them, to support them at this terrible time. But what has helped us has been the care and compassion shown by the Doctors and Nurses and supporting them both. We are sustained by the fact that they gave Carol and continue to give Harvey the best of care and they have gone above and beyond in being in touch with us and, for example, the Nurse who stayed after her shift to sit with Harvey when he received the awful news about Carol. We know the teams cannot get food in the hospital. Their Canteens are closed. We would like to send some food and other treats to them to help sustain them as they support all the people in their care. We welcome your support. Thank you. Frances, Sue, Tracey, Ian, Irene and families.

4 years agoWow! Together we have now raised £3000. The team supporting Dad/Harvey continue to inspire us with their care and support in what must be the most trying circumstances. This includes the nurses spending extra time with him as he cannot be with his family at this sad time. We hope that if he continues to improve that he will be able to come home next week. Carol would have been over the moon with the funding raised and the help it will provide.These are trying times for us all. Your support and messages this week have really helped. THANK YOU.

4 years agoThank you everyone. We have now raised an incredible £2665. We wanted to let you know that Harvey is much better physically today and has managed a few calls with family. We also wanted to let you know that we asked the staff on my Dad's ward what they wanted yesterday and they said fruit so we sent both wards the biggest fruit selection! I rang today and said, what would they like given the money we had raised and they said 'vouchers'. We think this is great, they can choose their own treats. Stay safe everyone. Love from all the family.

Devastated to have lost my closest friend Carol, friends since 4yrs old at Primary School up to now as 'ladies who lunch' as well as happy outings with the husbands. Much love to Harvey and family
