The excellent 'Great Ormond Street' was back for a new series on BBC last night. The doctor attempting to convince the mother not to send her dying child to an American clinic was especially tough viewing.
And the most awful part of that was seeing the child come back to GOS after the treatment in America and the doctors reaction to his first sight at the poor girl, the shock on his face when told of her sodium levels straight after the first round of therapy was horrific, basically she had been severely poisoned by a commercial organisation masquerading as a hospital, for cash - was it only me who shook their head and thought "Well fook me there's a surprise" when the family were informed that their child had been accepted by the private organisation as "suitable for treatment" after they'd extracted £20,000 from the family for an "assessment", was there ever a chance that the organisation would take the £20k, do the "assessment", and then tell the family, "No I don't think she'll benefit from a further £80,000 worth of our so-called treatment that no-one else in the world will acknowledge as a valid treatment for this condition".
Fookin charlatans extracting hard cash from vulnerable families while the NHS's top consultants stand by helplessly and pick up the mess afterwards.
They should strap Cameron and Lansley to a chair and force them to watch this episode, several times, and then ask them to answer the question in all truth, "Is this the vision of healthcare that you are leading us all to ?"
