Nine month wait

I WAS interested in your report on health at Warrington hospital.

I am 83-years-old and served in the RAF in the Battle of Briton and Atlantic.

At the end of the day I cannot get treatment. I have been waiting nine months for an operation but every time my doctor makes a date, Warrington say they have no bed.

I am in pain all the time and this after having done so much for this country, it makes me sick.

I must say, when I get in to the hospital the staff are very good but I believe Ian Dalton just does not know what is going on.

They don't even deserve a star.
