The long awaited and somewhat dreaded little operation on the Author's backside went smoothly on schedule on Monday evening, and all was due for him to be discharged from hospital the following morning, joyful that it was done at last - and with amazingly little post-op pain. However, what that immediately led into was a nightmarish bureaucratic snarl-up worthy of Kafka's 'The Castle', which made him an imprisoned bed blocker there, theoretically almost indefinitely - until finally he was a Bad Boy indeed, biting the bullet and doing the taboo thing that the whole system was mindlessly trying to turn any 'patient' away from doing. His follow-up of this experience with a formal complaint showed something of how corrupt the NHS hospital service is, right at the core, in its patronizing self-justifications in the face of much needed complaints and criticism like all too many large organisations. This is a salutary and educational experience from which medical workers and authorities in the UK and presumably worldwide need to learn if they are to function in the genuine best interests of the so-called 'patients' rather than the interests of the personal and collective power and control agendas that are being played out by medics and the institutions of which they are part. I recommend that if possible you BOOKMARK it but do NOT print it , for the simple reason that most of these pages are frequently updated and so any printed copy is likely soon to be out of date, and also in a printed copy you would not be able to click on the many explanatory hyperlinks.
