How did I personally become involved?
My stepfather and dearest friend John
He collapsed and his heart stopped on a summer evening in 2003
He died 15 weeks later at Christmas

Were we let down?
John’s story is one of Neglect A Wall of Silence Of Denial And a failure to recognise either John’s
needs or the needs of John’s family

Bombay Hospital motto which has been adapted from a quotation made by Mahatma Gandhi. It reminds us that:
“A patient is the most important person in our hospital. They are not an interruption to our work, they are the purpose of it. They are not an outsider in our hospital, they are an integral part of it. We are not doing a favour by serving them, they are doing us a favour by giving us an opportunity to do so”.

Remember, nothing matters until it become personal, and …………
All that is necessary for the triumph of failure and harm is that good people do nothing
