Hi all,
I wanna highlight the way this country looks after spongers and wasters but not those that have put into the countries economy when they so desperatly need help.
I have a friend who suffers from Cystic Fibrosis. She was running a successful business teaching pole dancing for fitness. Unfortunatly her condition deteriated and now she is on the Transplant list awaiting that all improtant call that she is going to recieve a double lung transplant.
She is on perminant oxygen and without the transplant in the next few months will die. Her husband to be works full time, but not a great wage so they need help from the government to pay the bills. Let me put this bluntly, This young lady is classed as terminally ill and the government will not give her any financial help what so ever.
Why does our government quite happily throw money at people who cannot be arsed to go to work but deny helping someone like this, it's wrong and needs to stop!
The next thing is there was an annoouncment from the Cyctic Fibrosis Research Trust that they have had to shelve a treatment that can stop the degeneration of a sufferers lungs because of a shortfall in money to the tune of £6.5 million.
David Cameron announced at the G8 summit that the UK would be giving an extra £110 million in international aid to North Africa. WHAT THE HELL?
I will give you some facts about CF and you decide if we should be giving charities in this country more government funds compared to other countries:-
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is one of the UK's most common life-threatening inherited diseases.
Cystic Fibrosis affects over 9,000 people in the UK.
Each week, five babies are born with Cystic Fibrosis.
Each week, two young lives are lost to Cystic Fibrosis.
Only half of those living with Cystic Fibrosis are likely to live past their late 30s
I feel so strongly about this because I lost a cousin to CF when she was 21. The other thing I want to promote is the Organ Donor Register found here:-
http://www.organdonation.nhs.uk/ukt/how_to_become_a_donor/registration/consent.jsp
it tkes 30 seconds to sign up. Some facts for you to ponder if your not sure why you should sign up:-
You are more likely to need a transplant than become a donor.
A donor can donate a heart, lungs, two kidneys, pancreas, liver and small bowel and can restore the sight of two people by donating their corneas.
Donors can also give bone and tissue such as skin, heart valves and tendons. Skin grafts have helped people with severe burns and bone is used in orthopaedic surgery.
My last word today is a question for you all that are bothering to read this:-
WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO RECIEVE A DONOR ORGAN?
If you answer yes to this and are not on the organ donor register then sign up or live with the knowing you are a hypocrite.
