My 79 mother, who suffers from senile dementia has just spent the better part of 2 days lying in hospital with a broken hip. She has had to wait for surgery on her hip because, wait for it, it is a bank holiday.
I have nothing but the greatest respect for all of the staff that have been caring for her. Their profesionalism has been exceptional. But funding means that a frail, confused old lady has spent two days in pain because of underfunding and lack of resources.
And all the way on my 5 hour drive home I kept passing signs that said, 'If you value it, vote for it'
I feel sick with rage.
