Hi all you know after hearing the news now about some one has been messing around with the medical stuff in hospital scaring isn't it? Its put the shivvers up your spine Makes me think now are wwe going to be safe in our hospitals. I used to be scared because taking my hearing aid out and being totally blind lying in side ward all by myself at one point used to worry if anybody came in during the night . When had my big cyst taking out of my left breast back in 1992 wards were great then lots of nurses on the wards oh it was great we got lots of atention then but not now hardly a nurse on a ward . not same any more i would feel isloated now if on ward on my own when had operation on my left ear before the cochlear one i was just left to sit at bed all by myself being blind didn't know where to walk on ward to toilet etc couldn't find where stuff was to put my things away in locker it was an hour before some one came to see me. I managed to get undressed but things were dropping on floor from locker . yes times were hard on some wards other times great . Love Carol x.x.x.x.
