Yes, well, my post was about Mr Duffy - but I guess I should have paid more attention to the ongoing MR editorial issues…🙄.

Yes, because that is what is important.

"they then prescribed Midazolam and Diamorphine (heroin)...  ... and overdosed them."

Strong stuff. Amongst a plethora of other accusations and allegations, this stood out particularly. There are so many parallels here when considering what is now known after the facts, in the Ranson case. The question I would be asking is how Magson, unqualified medically, wielded so much power and influence? And what of the actions of those who backed her to the end (you know who you are)?

I too welled-up. Angry, sad and vengeful at the same time... 

This really needs to be dug into by someone.  Midazolam has a number of uses, but perhaps the most widely seen is end of life care when it is indeed normally given with an opiate, such as diamorphine.  As MF members may rememeber, the so-called Liverpool pathway fell out of favour some years ago because the patient was given opiate/sedative by syringe pump at the same time as fluids and food were stopped.  You could argue that such an approach hastened/assisted/caused death.

At the same time, I have seen an elderly relative put on this care plan and it reduced distress for both the patient and the loved ones during their final hours.

To say that overdosing might have been used would amount to murder.

Mr Duffy  came to the IoM from a deeply  troubled Morecambe Bay Trust where he was treated very badly.

Their loss.Our  gain.

He was awarded an OBE after coming to the Island in recognition of duties outside his usual remit of urological surgery.This included spending  time with  with seriously ill and dying patients during the Covid lock-down, sitting with them when there were restrictions on visiting.

I read his first book, “Whistle in the Wind”.It is a well-written, very personal account of his early life, medical school and later specialist training before entering into  disturbing  detail of the  malevolent machinations that can exist in the NHS system.

It is sadly ironic that whilst the Island’s  NHS received and benefitted from the arrival of a victim from one abusive system, it focused on perpetrating its own campaign against its medical director.

You could but her initial claims were suggestive of some sort of state sponsored execution programme under the direct instruction of Magson. The second video then positions things very differently.

I don't know what your agenda is here. You're misrepresenting what's been said and putting words where they don't belong.

No I’m not. Should I question the agenda of everyone above trotting out the same message? The two interviews are substantively different. In the first one she basically suggests that Magson saw off patients after they took control. In the second one she markedly doesn’t.

I suspect the second one is just part 1 and she stated in the second video exactly what she stated in first one, not sure what you watched

When that press issue was first posted very early this morning, Mr. Duffy was a 'neurologist' rather than urologist.

Good old MR on the ball. 

I assume that he should be "on the ball" as he is a urologist 😀

[hampsterkahn]

Perhaps MR have a tradition to maintain .

Years ago, in  a news report,repeated throughout  the day, they quoted  a pathologist’s  diagnosis as   ‘severe amnesia’  instead of   ‘anaemia’’

They were hoping we'd forget about that one.

I'd much rather read the interviews than watch them. Fucking modern world.

You could have listened tonight on MR. I listened to Phil Gawne interviewing Paul Moulton and then Laurie Hooper.

Paul declared, ‘He will go to jail over this’ (ever the trooper)and Laurie was whining that everyone is wrong, except him. Out of the two, I have to say Paul sounded the more credible. 

The MR link.

Local hero in the making. Think Moulton was referring to himself, pursuing the matter to the end, even if it meant him going to jail. Is the Gawne show on 'Listen Again? Can't seem to find it...

 

ETA: Found it.

Paul needs to slow down and explain the situation clearly.

He assumes his audience knows what he is talking about.
