I started this Blog after being diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in 2010. I thought I was going to die! It was a way of keeping family and friends informed but then became a campaigning tool, helping to make improvements in hospitals nationally. 11 years on, after successful surgery, my PSA is still undetectable. I'm not continuing to Blog about prostate cancer, I'm hoping to leave it in the past, but this blog contains a great archive of information.

Please be aware...The NHS may try to have this Blog taken down or restricted by legal action over the coming weeks, so please don't rely on it as a point of contact with me. There is NOTHING they can do to stop me speaking out on this issue. (That's not strictly true, they may employ a 'hit man', after all, up until last week I didn't think they would threaten a cancer patient!) Now that National Newspapers are involved, with TV and Radio showing great interest, I think that the message may be finally getting through. I see that the CEO of the trust has resigned this week!!!! The demonstration will go ahead as planned and I will keep you posted through other forums. Thanks for all your support.

ReplyDeleteDear Daniel, Keep fighting with your blog, I also have a blog "The Last Six Months" about the NHS that was featured in The Mail on Sunday 5th June. More and more people should document every detail when they are being treated by the NHS. Keep up the fight and stay strong.

Congratulations Daniel, particularly on coming to what I believe are the right conclusions. The NHS belongs to us, but we are being subjected to the underhand tricks of Trust Managers who think that the "service" is best run as a "business". The essential difference escapes them.
ReplyDeleteA nurse for 22 years, I retired early when I found out that reports I had made re nurses abusing patients had been ignored. One such report was of a nurse who admitted to me that she wanted to end some patients' lives early!
The Trust took the view that the reports threatened the Trust's reputation and did nothing beyond "filing" them. They paid me a sum, of public money, to keep my mouth shut!
The legal system prevented me from making any facts known. The public believe comfortably that medical professionals are in charge, but are prevented from detecting that Trusts are run by businessmen.
Current Govt. Proposals contain nothing to address this and will serve only to make "business" strategies more dominant in NHS decision-making.
well done daniel wish I had done what you had done for my now late husband so many mistakes made, we put our trust and lives in their hands
ReplyDeleteand we are abused I hope everybody reading this will put into action and be more demanding, I am not letting this go am having all his medical records scans looked at by a professional we know there some glaring mistakes made
