My gorgeous Rob will be laid to rest today. It’s incomprehensible how someone so strong and full of life is just gone. 💔

“My concentration is not looking at the past because I don’t have time”
You absolutely need to look at the past @CarrollJennifer to be able to address the issues and scandals that have been allowed to go on within CHI. Without looking to the past to address the current problems in paediatric healthcare, children will continue to be failed regardless of how shiny and new the hospital is.
Buildings don’t provide care.

She had to transfer because he was still working in the hospital? The fact that he was born elsewhere is most certainly not a mitigating factor and is in fact irrelevant to the committing of a crime.

It takes backbone to be neutral … and it’s about time we found ourselves. Most valued passport? Not for much longer methinks

It’s time we started acting like a neutral country. Gov pols do not have a mandate to walk us into war. #neutrality
