Two venerable gentlemen,
at opposite ends of the globe.
Gentleman 'a' has had
four acute admissions to hospital within the space of two years requiring
surgery.
Gentleman 'b' is back in
hospital with a recurring lung infection.
Both venerable gentlemen
are in their early 90s.
These gentlemen are both well
known and in prominent positions in their respective countries.
Were they
of the more common sort, like the rest of us, and receiving treatment on the
NHS, they would, by now, have both been considered for and consigned upon the
Pathway...
As so many of the more common
sort have been.
We wish them both well, just
as we wish all our old ones - in hospital or care home - the kindness,
consideration and care which should be theirs...
Gentleman 'a' continues to cause concern but is 'comfortable'.- News 24
Gentleman 'b' is in a 'serious but stable condition'.
