Unfortunately, over the last 50 years, I have often needed the ambulance service.
Nurses have let me down, as have doctors, but never the ambulance service.
I would like to say a very big thank you to them for their unfailing kindness, humour and thoughtfulness.
I consider them the backbone of the NHS.
Where would we be without them?
Mrs J Lewis, Acomb, York.
