Ray,what a small world it is,Helen Sankey was on the same Ward as I was,
and I worked with her for eight years,We finished up very good friends and
returned home one morning after shopping and there was a note pushed
through the letter box asking me if I would go to her house as she has something for our Lee.he was about eight at the time.We went and she gave him and Easter egg and bought me some tights.
When the Sister on the Ward was retiring the staff asked me if I'd paint
something for her..I painted Mona Lisa ( It finished up in the Wigan
Observer) and Helen said "I wish someone would paint a picture for me" of
course I said yes and she ran to Sisters office and ran back with a postcard
of The Isle of Arran..so of course when she retired I gave it to her..she was
a great woman,her nurses cap always cockeyed her top button always
undone,but when we tended to a dying person she was an angel..I will
never forget her....it sure is a small world Ray.
