I didn't feel ashamed or uncomfortable
I found the process easy enough, the people who did the interview were great. I didn't feel ashamed or uncomfortable. I became a volunteer to give back what I received.
We now have peace of mind
I am taking the time to write to you today to express my sincere gratitude to your organisation for your generous assistance in purchasing a night watch seizure monitor for my daughter. It really has been a blessing for us, bringing us both peace of mind and we are extremely grateful…
