(she  had  no  idea  HOW  I  would  be  able  to  do  that  at
            schtewpid  o'clock  in  the  morning  30  miles  from  home
            with  no  money  or  transport)  But  she  was  clearly  just
            racing round trying to get rid of as many people as she
            could out of the corridor by literally chucking us out into
            the street.

           I  was  ill,  couldn’t  speak  properly,  couldn't  walk  properly,
            need  assistance  to  stand  or  sit,  still  in  dreadful  pain  -
            made  worse  by  being  stuck  in  a  half  reclined  hospital
            trolley  for  several  hours,  and  without  even  doing  the
            basic  tests  I'd  been  sent  there  for  she  was  aggressively
            trying  to  get  me  out  -  even  if  I  just  had  to  sit  in  the
            public  waiting  area,  which  was  just  an  unattended  dark
            area with people loitering by a vending machine. Finally
            got home in a special hospital taxi they agreed to let me
            use after another 3 hours! Got home at ridiculous o'clock
            this  morning,  went  to  sleep  about  half  6  this  morning
            and  then  was  awoken  by  a  message  from  the  Doctor
            saying they should have done the tests and scans so I've
            got to rush back to Worcester under my own transport
            like  now!  Are  they  taking  the  total  and  utter  piss!!  I've
            told them I'll go as far as The Alex which is like 5mins
            away, where I asked to go in the 1st place.
           What is being made priority in this situation cos it sure as
            Hell  ain’t  my  health  or  safety!!  The  politics  of
            privatisation is being played around us and were just the
            pieces  to  be  kicked  around.  (Now  I'm  on  way  to  The
            Alex for round 2...)
