Dear ROMAC
Last year I took out a ROMAC subscription to donate monthly to help fund patient treatment.
I was delighted to receive in the post a lovely thank you card with a little gift inside. The gift was a packet of Australian Everlasting Daisy seeds.
I am a keen gardener so I was very happy with my gift and immediately planted some seeds, which germinated well. Over summer the daisies grew and grew, providing me with masses of long-lasting cut flowers.
I want to thank you for the joy the flowers brought me and my family. Here are a couple of photos of them.
