I was saddened to read about Sarah Shaw last weekend.

I wish to say that Sarah Shaw was a very professional and sympathetic nurse.

When my husband was dying back in 2005, she was wonderful in offering help and advice when I had problems at RD&E.

She liaised with GPs in Sidmouth and provided comfort to me when my husband had died. What a loss she will be to both patients and their carers in Sidmouth.

My very best wishes to Sarah.
