Bitter irony of socialized medicine

A former director of Britain's National Health Service, which runs the country's socialized medicine system, has died while waiting 9 months for an operation. The UK Daily Mail reports: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... pital.html
A former NHS director died after waiting for nine months for an operation - at her own hospital.
Margaret Hutchon, a former mayor, had been waiting since last June for a follow-up stomach operation at Broomfield Hospital in Chelmsford, Essex.
But her appointments to go under the knife were cancelled four times and she barely regained consciousness after finally having surgery.
Her devastated husband, Jim, is now demanding answers from Mid Essex Hospital Services NHS Trust - the organisation where his wife had served as a non-executive member of the board of directors.
I am confident Ms. Hutchon believed in what she did as a socialized medicine official, and her husband's grief deserves our respect and sympathy. But she is a victim of a system that in the name of compassion denies people care.
