   Dear Debs,

   I am truly sorry your friend or relative is reaching the end of his/her life, and pray that they go without pain – it’s the most any of us can ask for when we die.

   But sweetie, I really understand how you feel. You told the “experts” that this person was in pain and distress, and they dismissed what you said, assuming it was all an attention getting ploy, when you knew it wasn’t, but nobody would listen. Now those who ignored her and also ignored your concerns, are trying to atone for their ignorant behaviour (because that’s what it was) by making out how concerned and caring they are in spite of all their neglect. Well, it’s too damn little and far too late.

   I feel for you Debz, but you did your best – no one can do more than their best.

   Thanks for sharing this with us.

   Oh I know jojo thanks for your reply I have stood up for this poor person for at least 6 months, gosh how I wish this had been secretly filmed…..but nevertheless I know I can hold my head up and say not guilty!!!

   This person kissed someone an I said nothing to them or the higher ups as ohhhh thats a nono, I think they had a little crushon the person ………and Im so happy to have let them have a peck on the cheek!!!!….I know rules are rules but sometimes some of the professionals need to remember…..people are also people…

   Prayers for you debz and for the person suffering. She will soon be in God’s hands and can then rest in peace. Professionals need to learn that they are not the only ones who have insight and to respect the concerns of others. They put themselves on a pedestal and when things go wrong, they put on this “act” as you described it. You can hold your head up high debz and be proud of what you did. Take care xo

   sds I feel how you feel, I cannot tell you how angry it makes me……

   this person I speak about if you read other posts has been the most loving and kindly person, not the person they were portrayed as, I ‘grassed’ some people up over a situation with this person which I saw, like I say I’d do it again, it was the most uncomfortable situation ever for me…

   Nevertheless, I would hold my head up high and always let them know how this person had been with me whilst with me …….I suppose because I did what I did, and they all denied it, I think it was a case of right they thought they’d belittle me, and ‘put me in my place’

   This will be the end of it for the person, me? well sadly I have a ‘large mouth’ now Im so tempted to say one day,

   Oh by the way whilst your feeling sadness do you feel sadness the day when you did xxxxxxxxxxxx? was that a regular occourance or just a one off??

   But then is it worth it? who knows, I try so hard to look for the light sds, I hope its out there…………..Im not after praise, or to be honoured for what I did what I want is recognition for the way xxxxxx was treated and the incident NOTo be swept under the carpet…..but to be all out in the open…….not once was I called to ask what I saw….

   See all I have to say are 2 words and those who know me will know I always tell the truth…..lets just say Im balancing on the fence….

   Of course whilst xxxx is this ill I will say nothing, I just hope xxxx recovers…….

   Time will tell……………
