As most of you who read this PILE OF SHITE are aware I have been in for a reasonably major operation over the last few days. As I don't like to bore, (aye that'll be fucking right, ED), just let me say that I HAVE BEEN AMAZED at the level of care and the PROFESSIONALISM shown by all the staff in AYR HOSPITAL.
When I was wheeled down to the one of six operating theatres, my overwhelming feeling was how many people were working there just for little old me. They all seemed to be going about their individual tasks efficiently and with a sense of purpose and I remember thinking just before I went under, FUCK ME, this must be costing a fortune!
Anyway to cut a long story short, after the operation, (which went well BTW), because of a few probs I have with my heart, I was taken into 'HIGH DEPENDENCY'. There at all times there was one STAFF NURSE for every two patients. Next door in INTENSIVE CARE it was one on one. As you progressed up the levels of care it gradually became one in three and so on.
Anyway to get to the moral of my tale. If you're ever in Hospital for a serious operation, yes you might think, how much is all this costing? But, instead you will just be glad that the NHS is there for you and you are being looked after to an extremely high standard. As they wheel you into the operating theatre, you won't be worrying about how much money is being spent on the ROADS/POLICE/EDUCATION etc., you'll only be thankful that in SCOTLAND we have a SNP GOVERNMENT who has pledged to look after health and stand against THE CUTS OF THE WESTMINSTER PARTIES. So for your own good, please vote SNP if you can on Thursday, it could quite literally be a LIFE OR DEATH DECISION!
