Govt Health "Care"

Horror story from Britain, a three year old's heart surgery cancelled 3 times due to lack of an intensive care bed:

The family are now waiting for another surgery date.

'We have asked the doctors if she really needs the surgery as she is so happy at the moment and is running around like a normal little girl, but she could drop down dead at any moment,' said Ms Davis.

'Twice I have been told that she may not make it through the night and there have been times when I have gone into her room in the morning and wondered whether she'd still be breathing.

No choice when there's only one provider.
