You are not responsible for what happened to youand your brother.You were the victims of someone elses behaviour or circumstances.You are there now for your brother and that is all you can do.
Just remember you do what you can do now .I was abandoned but in a totally different way.You are a tough cookie ,maybe having a blip at the mo' but you can't always be taking all on your own shoulders.
I am sure you have support from your family,take that support and take a deep breath for yourself.

Dear Helen and Jean

At moment I feel like little girl who was neglected and abandoned whilst my baby bro cried in his cot and I couldn't rescue him. I had to protect him until he grew up cos I was his big sis and

Thank you.

This may seem a bit drastic but I keep hearing about family members of putting these"Nanny Cams" in the room of their relative.Would this be an option?

What a tragic story. I am so sorry for you and your brother.

You must feel so helpless.

I do hope your brother can recover from this latest outrage.

(((((((((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))))

Deeply private, worry about saying wrong thing here, you've all given me the courage to say it.

I just want to say there are some absolutely wonderful, caring, kind, empathic nurses - to those I say a huge thank you. Sadly, not all are ...

My bro was assaulted by patient who has full use of limbs, who rained blows down on his head,gave him black eye, has been accused of assault ,is in 'solitary' in head injury unit. Couldn't/wouldn't do it (catastrophic head injury, paraplegic); never ever been violent. Bad situation.
They're saying he's dangerous yet he's on their welcome webpage, large picture of happy man with head injury, deep in thought.

Where were their 1:1 carers? My bro's ran when man assaulted bro.

He's paraplegic because of neglect by some 'wonderful' nurses; had third fall, neurologists fear that fall.

Feel powerless.

Thank you, not known hugs, caring really. Usually I'm the one who people come to. x
