I've stayed away from Brexit these past few weeks, can't vote anyway and as I stated, I'm glad I can't.
I hope whichever direction the British people vote is the right outcome, but I have a feeling I'll be voting next time to try to stop or undo along with a majority at undoing or protecting any mess from the fall out.
The parties have said this, claimed that, lied through their teeth to get at each other, whoever wins will have the burden of doing what's best and in particular sorting out the great NHS which I used this morning and that saved a friend of mine who had 2 minor heart attacks at age 39 just the other week.
How did you find it? See any kids laying in corridors?
No, it was a really good experience, much better with this new management.
Best experience I've had there in years, called up and they had an appointment for me in 20mins.
On the NHS, you can only speak as you find and my extended family has had the best possible treatment over the past few years:
My Mum who has macular degeneration (eye problems) has now had 35 sets of injections that cost £1k each apparently.
My Father in-law has had heart issues and had a defibrillator fitted in his chest, also had bowel surgery and other stuff.
I've had a few issues with (non invasive) skin cancer that have been sorted very quickly.
I could go on, but to say the NHS is failing/in meltdown is totally ludicrous.
My grandmother is currently dying with weeks to live, in horrendous pain. There are no spaces available in any hospice in the whole of Kent so no palliative care for her.
My colleague at work has bad psoriasis and has been waiting over a year for specialist light therapy to start.
A doctors surgery near my mums place has only two GPs left working in it. Used to have four
Yes id say crisis is the right word
The GP's I went to has been taken over by new management and were great however just a year ago that same GP's under the previous regime was horrendous, they wouldn't even answer the phones, could never get an appointment or anything.
I think like most things in life its the management of that particular branch which has a big effect as does of course the correct funding.
There's a video going around Facebook where they are asking Brits how much they think Americans pay for medical care like being picked up by an ambulance, Epipen, inhaler etc and its shocking tbh, which is why the NHS is in my top 2 of things I'd vote on.
Anyway I hope the situation involving your Nan improves.
