COMPLETE aside here - one of my Mum's closest friend's husband has been transferred to a specialist neurologial hospital. He's suffered a series of mini-strokes and is in a terrible way with something they can't even properly diagnose. Suffice to say he's insensible in a mass of tubes and the doctors have admitted even if they manage to diagnose and treat him, there will be brain damage. He's four years younger than my Dad and his son is a year younger than me.
The connection? He appeared to come to a couple of days ago. One of the first questions asked of him was whether he knew where he was. He replied, "Wombat."
Back to the OT - while I'm not sure Days like this do anything to help, I'd like to think they establish/ reinforce society's views on the topic. It would help if we could also target Judges. Certainly in the UK the disparity between male and female sentencing (particularly in violent crimes against a partner/ spouse) is little short of criminal.
