A Hospital Garden, With Woodlands

Visible to anyone in the world

I went to the hospital today for my results of the scan. The consultant told me that I had fluid on my knee and this was causing me all the trouble!

They said they can syringe the knee, but the swelling seems to going down now slowly on it' s own, so we will just wait and see. So good news, no blood clot just fluid in the leg.

While waiting for the appointment. We walked in the hospital grounds,  then followed a path way through the woodland, it was very pretty! 

This garden really relaxed me,  it calmed me down before my appointment!

Hospitals with gardens can have positive effects on patients and their health and well being.

People living in the nearby area, can benefit from the wood and this also contributes to  improving air quality in the town.
