MIKE Pryce writes, (Evening News, October 5), about turning to religion, " but in times of crisis, when there is nowhere else to go, even the hardest can feel the need of support from somewhere."

Perhaps some of my letters harp on about religion too much. But when I was in hospital, in the 1960s and some of the 1970s, I often felt totally lost and turned to God because there was nowhere else to turn.

I regard those years as my "time in the wilderness".
