Princess
Both of you lovely women are great but I am at a loss to understand what was the story. To be honest for me it is up there with Ellen whining!!
She clearly had extra care for herself, baby and family from health workers who were doing their best for her. Why did she complain?? she sounded like a spoiled brat / Princess.
Poor me I was in isolation, feel sorry for me. Listen “Princess” maybe just be thankful to the health workers and think about people in countries that are having severe problems and the families losing their loved ones.
I was in an armed holdup in a Pharmacy with a gun stuck in my side to open a safe and he wanted controlled drugs drugs, 4 months later we had an earthquake and then the following Feb 2011 so many people died and I had to go to work with no electricity in my home and care for people who were traumatised beyond belief. 6 years later I was assessed in a hospital at the age of 49 because I had a pain in my gallbladder region. Dr walks in and tells me that I need immediate open heart surgery or I had 6 hours before I would drop dead because my Aorta was about to burst. Then 2 years ago an Australian came to NZ and killed many innocent people in 2 mosques, I was working 2 km down the road from 1 of those mosques and my daughter 23 at the time watched part of the live stream that piece of...... posted.
