I have just had a phone call from my mum who has a long term illness and is currently in hospital to say she had had her handbag stolen from her room!! This in itself is awful but the fact is she is in isolation so does not leave her room, ever, except to go to her bathroom (en-suite) so whoever stole her bag did it whilst she was in there or whilst she was sleeping!! She is hard of hearing and wears a hearing aid and so would not have had this in at night so she wouldnt have heard.
Furthermore, and this is what is making me want to really lay into someone, the nurses called for security to come up and speak to her about it but one of the men said they didnt want to go in her room "in case they caught aids or something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!". FFS she hasn't got aids (and if she did they wouldnt catch it from talking to her ignorant b***d!) she has aplastic anemeia and the reason she is in isolation is so she doesnt catch anything off them!!! The nurses have made a complaint against them but as you can imagine this has really upset my mum. She really didnt need this on top of everything she has been through over the past couple of years.
She had no cards or money in her bag as she doent need them in hospital but sadly, she also had the ring of her sister who passed away in her purse as my nan had given it to her to look after as she had broken her wrist and couldn't wear it!
I am so sad for her I could cry, some people are absolute effing scumbags.
