stealthy1 3,964 Posted August 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 It's hard to believe a mother could do that to her kids and still sleep at night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisJones 7,975 Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 Nobody from the NHS' bloated staff, from care workers all the way up to surgeons, bothered to check this mother's diagnosis?! That's f***ing ridiculous! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,791 Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 It's not that uncommon...they're after the carer's allowance which is a more than the benefits they get. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisJones 7,975 Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 This is a quote from the full BBC article... Dr Eveline Knight-Jones, who prepared the paediatric overview for the trial, said: "In London it is all too easy for fabricated illness cases to attend several different hospitals some distance from their local hospital, because there are so many hospitals, particularly specialist hospitals."Most of the health professionals the children saw took what the mother said about them "at face value," the court heard. Jurors were told the mother was "resistant" to attempts to investigate the causes of the alleged symptoms and refused to allow one child to be admitted to hospital for a two-week review. The defence claimed she suffered from a severe anxiety disorder, which caused her to "catastrophise" and overstate her children's medical symptoms. Common or not how the f**k does this slip through multiple medical professionals? You refuse the doctor's request for a review, and he says 'F*ck it lets operate.' But it's free, right? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(And yes I know you have no idea what you do), I've seen many many good doctors, for what they do they aren't paid enough and aren't given the credit for the continuous extra miles they go! From working with kids in care ATM it's very likely those poor children will be severely damaged after an upbringing like that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
