Report in todays paper on the super bug that almost killed me says it was linked to 2026 deaths last year, nation wide, and the numbers are increasing.
The Kent and Sussex Hosp. at Tunbridge Wells this week has had to close down 2 wards because of the infection, this is part of the Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells Hospital Trust, that are responsible for our Maidstone hospital.
My own horrendous experience of this bug, the non stop diarrhoea, the lack of staff to attend to me, resulting in long periods left lying in my own filth, the lack of decent facilities, with overcrowded wards giving very little privacy, insuficient toilets, shared by infected, and un infected, the rapid turn arround of beds, with very little in the way of fumigation, makes me surprised the death rate is'nt even higher.
Unable to combat it in those conditions, they discharged me, and I struggled with it at home for the next eight weeks, almost reduced to skin and bone. I 'm convinced that if I had stayed in hospital I would'nt have made it.
It makes me so mad that this government wastes zillions on crack brained schemes to suck up to minority groups, pays out trillions in benefits to the work shy, the feckless, the anti social, and to so called migrants, flocking into the country from all over the world, yet our N.H.S, once the best in the world is now worse than in many 3rd world countries
