Pet Heroes 2007

Each month we vote for one of our patients who has shown courage and patience when faced with difficult, painful or long term treatment.  During 2007 we had nine 'hero's' and an overall winner was voted by our clients and readers of the Melksham News.

Tye was the posthumous winner who sadly died of bone cancer in May 2007

Our other Heroes included:

Bluebell having oxygen therapy in our                                                       intensive care unit                                                 Bluebell fully recovered
