about my last flash 55

when I wrote the touch it seemed like i was in the room watching, wanting to stop what was happening.

That girl was a close female relative. She was in hospital having had a near fatal asthma attack and a group of people from the church decided to 'pray over her'
She relates that she was ubable to move or cry out but that she remembers their hands all over her.
These days there is a protocol in hospitals where-by this cannot happen without expressed permission from the patient or their next of kin.

take responsibility!

A terrible item in the news. A baby girl (less than 2 months old) was killed by her father who had systematically physically and sexually abused her. Over 30 professionals had seen the baby and some had flagged concerns about abuse\potential abuse but no-one had actually done anything.
An enquiry has determined that no-one is to blame for the oversight as it was an failure in the system.

What the hell do we pay doctors, nurses, social workers for, the system isn't to blame it's the people in that system. Why have people stopped taking responsibility?
