I Was Certainly Seriously Emotionally Affected [ When Louise Hillary And Belinda Hillary Died], But We Were Building The Hospital At The Time And I Decided That The Only Thing To Do Was To Carry On And Complete The Hospital - And It Was A Jolly Good Hospital Too, I Might Say.

June [hillary] Had Been Doing All These Things - The Himalayas And All The Rest Of It - So We Had Done Things Together For A Long Time, And, Particularly As Far As Our Sherpas Were Concerned, We Had A Very Sound, I Think, Philosophy.
