ARRIXACA CARDIOLOGY DEPARTMENT BENEFITS FROM LIN’S LINE DANCERS
Contributor / 2009-10-28 14:17:02
Lin Chitty and her line dancers meet every week at The Arches in Los Alcázares to indulge in their hobby. Every week, subscriptions are collected, which are all donated to a charity at the end of the season.
This year line dancer, Di Daniels, nominated Arrixaca Hospital’s Cardiology Department to receive their 2009 collection of €1064. Her husband, Peter, suffered a serious heart attack on 2 February 2006 and was rushed to Los Arcos A&E before being transferred to Arrixaca, where he spent 6 days in intensive care. “The cardiology unit saved Peter’s life and I can’t thank them enough” said Sue. “He had two lots of stents inserted before he stabilised and the care he received was second to none.” Peter has recovered well and has six-monthly check-ups with his Consultant, Mr Pascuale, who will receive the donation, on behalf of the hospital.
Lin has already nominated MABS Cancer Support Group, Murcia/Mar Menor as their charity for 2010. So, if you would like to have some fun and raise money for a good cause at the same time, Lin’s Line Dancers meet at The Arches restaurant, Oasis, Los Alcázares every Wednesday between 3.00 pm and 5.00 pm. Call 620 145 063 for more information.
MABS Murcia/Mar Menor helps all people in this area who are affected by cancer, providing drivers, translators, information leaflets, equipment, a listening ear, or a shoulder to lean on.
If you want to volunteer, donate or you need help, you can contact MABS on 693 275 779 or visit their website: www.mabsmurcia.com or Email: lynbaines227@hotmail.com
