Oh David - what a great video, so sad, so creepy. The woman put in there while pregnant with her 6th child, I wonder what happened to the child. Why would people mistreat others that they should be caring for? Must be like the Nazi’s death camps, you couldn’t possibly have a conscious to work there. Or you did what you did just to survive. The poor children, no one to care, read stories, cuddle & snuggle them. I could have sat all day reading those patient records of why there were sent there. David, you are amazing & caring and the perfect person to take us on these journeys. Thank you so much, and as always, stay safe❤

your comment was a wee while ago, but I've just come from an audible series called 'the madman's hotel' by Niall Breslin, and it goes into deep detail of the woman who went in pregnant and the outcome of all of her children, so if you are still interested it might be worth a listen.

I went to the emergency room one night almost a year ago and I can hear and I can see when I am in seizures but I can’t speak. I saw and heard the doctors in a small group in the emergency room one of them was saying “ I don’t believe she’s having seizures!!” I have had them since I was 9 years old and I am 76 now, I think I know when I am having a seizure and it’s been documented by neurologists that I am an epileptic !!!!!!

Good luck with your weight loss. I am having to do the same thing. My General Practitioner M.D. told me the dietary formula for losing weight: 1) until you get your weight down to below 40 lbs over weight, do not eat any saturated fat, not even saturated fat in olive oil, avocado, etc. Find a butter substitute, etc. 2) Stop eating complex carbs (list too long here, but you can google what they are. 3) Stop eating sweets of any kind and all sugars including honey, etc. Except for Stevia and Malitol, restrict sugar substitutes to 2 servings a day. 4) Stop alcohol. Once you get your weight down to below obesity level (40 lbs overweight), you can add back in a SMALL amount of these. I always enjoy your posts and will be following you in your efforts with your diet that has worked for you in the past! I'm not a vegatarian, either.
