“Princess Marrie Hospital is the only hospital we have dedicated to children in this country and we are not a rich hospital. So this donation is really going to help us. The chairs are going to make both staff and patients especially the mothers very comfortable.

“The things that they have brought are things we really need. They have lifted a huge burden off the management of this hospital. We are very grateful,” he added.
