This article is a clear indication that our patients value us and understanding the difficulties we are going through in the form of financial cuts from this Government.
When will the Government start listening to Patients? The National Health Service is funded by the tax payers, the Patients. It is time all political parties stop playing politics with the National Health Service and Patients health.

On Peggy’s first day at school, she wept because Mom was the oldest mother there. But Mom knew better—wisdom follows beauty.
Peggy, my younger sister, wept bitterly on her first day of school.
“Honey, don’t worry,” my mother reassured. “You’ll be home before you know it.”
My sister cried louder.
“You’ll love school. You’ll read and color.”
“But you’re so old!” Peggy squalled, tears of shame on her face.
Mom, her hair already turning fine silver by age 40, shut off the spigot: “Do you think these young mothers know how to make volcanoes that explode and really ooze lava? Do they know how to camp and cook outdoors? Do they know how to be room mothers?”
Mom was an intrepid woods-woman and Girl Scout leader.
This woman was wise in the ways of motherhood.
She could turn out two dozen fudgey-chocolate brownies and handily kill a copperhead snake…

Thought I should share this excellent article with all my friends and followers.

This project saved lives in South Africa when Nelson Mandela came to power. There could be justice in forgiveness.
There’s nowhere in the world where this could best be applied than Northern Ireland at the moment. Unfortunately many do not think so. With the arrest for up to 96 hours by the Police of the former Sinn Fein (Political wing of the IRA) leader, Mr Gerry Adamd, over the death of a mother of ten, by name Jean McConville in 1972.
Ruth Duddley Edwards writing in The Telegraph this morning stated Gerry Adams should not be immune from Justice. Sinn Fein insist the arrest is “politically contrived” and is “malicious”. But as she rightly argued, “is it worth bringing the past to light if it means chaos in the present? Should the need for justice for Jean McConville outweigh the need for all sides to put the troubles behind them?” She went on to argue “If you can not have justice then you cannot have peace Worthing of the name”. I disagree. Forgiveness as demonstrated by the Tutu project in South Africa, brought peace and aborted carnage. Same can be achieved in Norther Ireland through the process of forgiveness, in my opinion. There could be justice in learning to say sorry for our crimes and being forgiven by those we wronged.
Archbishop Desmond Tutu and his daughter, Mpho Tutu are trying to change the world with the Forgiveness Challenge. Get involved!
The Forgiveness Challenge is a free 30-day online program developed to help people learn the practical steps to forgiveness so they can live with greater love and joy in their life.
Each day, participants receive an email from us that directs them to a new post on the website that presents an important insight into forgiveness and that offers them…
