Before I had kids I had no idea I would feel so sensitively about them. I'm constantly worried about them and stories in the news that involve bad things happening to children, that I could quite easily put emotionally out of reach, now becomes much harder. In fact if I see a terrible sounding headline I tend to shy away from reading - harder with Letby of course since the story is everywhere. So I can't imagine what it would be like to lose one and think its absolutely "normal" to beat yourself up about it all your life but you probably know you shouldn't - you made the best choice at the time. Anyway, enough of all this friendliness among forumites - lets get back to some good old arguing

Thanks all and apologies for the maudlin topic. August is a bad month for my wife, because that's when it happened, so with Letby on top dragging it all back up, I've rather ended up oversharing here. Our other daughter has presented us with two lovely grandsons during these past two years. They've been the best therapy and take up all our spare time, so life is good. In the civilised and affluent west, I know we've drawn winning tickets in life's lottery, born luckier than the majority of people on this planet, so I always count my blessings. Thanks again for all the kind words. As michaelc says, let the fisticuffs resume...

Florence Nightingale was famous for her pioneering work in nursing and reducing mortality rate. Majority of nurses in the UK I have seen are passionate about their jobs and provide great care for people. IMHO, the media focused too much on Lucy Letby and not much on NHS Improvement.
Will the media report all the National NHS objectives 23/24 met in the future?
