Lisa: As a kid I was always in and out of hospital. I was terribly accident prone and had various broken bones plus a whole range of childhood problems from adenoids to appendicitis. But I was an odd child, I loved hospitals. I even loved hospital food.
Lisa: I'm not scared of doctors or anything medical but I absolutely hate even the idea of the dentist. I'll make all kind of excuses not to go. I think my fear of dentists must be connected with the needles. I just can't bear the thought of them.
Lisa: (On wanting to become a nurse) I loved the way nurses were in the Royal Marsden. They were wonderful to my Mum and dealt with patients and relatives so well. It made me want to be like them.
