THE TRIALS OF AN ANGEL (PART4)
Unravelling Stumbling into the lounge I dumped my mass on my favourite couch. Sitting with my hands caressing my head I felt panic taking over. What...

The more I hear about the NHS, the more I am convinced it needs to be broken up and the whole health system in the UK re-structured. Unfortunately I am also convinced whatever they did the UK government would find a way to **** it up.
