And no amount of comment or handwringing will change the outcome.So I think I will see IF there is any organisation that I can give some money to that investigates such cases,plus something to the NSPCC.
i had taped the tonight show with trevor mcdonald a few days ago, it showed how mothers can get post-natal depression even a few months after a baby is born, its hard to grasp how this lady did it, but when your depressed anything is possible.

There is only so many places for mental health patients in each borough. This service does need a big overhall and more things to be done. She probally had a CPN who probally popped in once a month if she was lucky.
on the show i watched it was a complete lottery of how people who have PND are treated, people in the south or london had the best support but patients in the northern part of the country were not taken seriously at all in one case or support was non-existant.
