MAY I thank all the people who helped me on Friday, July 30, after my husband, who has Alzheimer's Disease, collapsed while we were waiting for the 10.15am bus to Blackpool on Blackburn Boulevard.

My husband had to be taken to Blackburn Infirmary. This is the seventh time it has happened. The people who helped on this occasion were so good to me, but I hadn't time to thank them.
