30 Days of Gratitude Day Fourteen #30daysofgratitude

Today I am grateful for the greatest of all British things: the NHS. The National Health Service is one of the greatest things in Britain, no, the world. Full of hard working people and funded by taxpayers because healthcare is a basic human right. I dread to think how much I have cost the NHS over the years. Founded inĀ 1948, it is the largest and the oldest single-payer healthcare system in the world. It is not perfect, I had my son on the NHS and I cannot say it was a wonderful experience, but I got an emergency C section in the end, by a wonderful female surgeon, and I have no doubt that they saved the life of my son and I. Because that is the thing about the NHS; it is not perfect, but it is always there in a crisis, always there when you need it the most. Dear NHS and everyone who works in it: I LOVE YOU.
