Sylvia - Not Sure When 1968/69

I remember Heswell as a patient - Sylivia was my best friend and she had asthma - we were on the HOT ward. Get in touch Sylvia, if you remember too. What did HOT stand for? I remember being very frightened and not understadning why I was there, away from my family. Some of the nurses were horrrible. There was a lovely Indian doctor towards the end (he smelled of curry and it was so comforting) - I remember he was the first doctor who used to give us a hug, pick us up and take us for a walk in the grounds. He really helped me to get better. BTW the school was brilliant!
