    Sure, but this young lady was not poor, or a beggar - she just needed someone to care!

    I've just rung the hospital and, because I'm not family, they can tell me no more than the fact that she's in the Clinical Assessment unit, and is okay.

    Hi Peter, hats off to you for being a good samaritan.

    Well as like other said..we do all care but unfortunately we have this feeling that boggles in to our mind. You wouldn't realise that having a good intention to others will create a double meaning. Lets say for example.. for you, you only gave her water to drink because she was thirsty but then to others you already a perv, or lets say you offered her a shoulder to lean on but to others it was a harrassment.
    Its a crazy world, you know what I mean.
    But im pleased about the girl who you offered a help because she didn't protest or making a story up instead she participated despite being a mentally ill.
    There is always death and taxes; however, death doesn't get worse every year.

    is this part of Thatcher's legacy? the greed of the 80's, selling everything off that was british, shutting things down, i think she called it 'care in the community' , or in other words, take care of yourself .. i'm sure that bed for mental care patients are at an all time low, even under labour shutting wards and hospitals down carries on. the city of salford is 800years old, and the gov has shut the maternity ward down at the local hospital, so there will be no more born in this city, to give birth women will have to travel many miles to the nearest hospital with a maternity ward, putting the mother and baby at more risk

    it's easy to fix a broken bone a doctor can see, but a broken mind .., and it's also near impossible to try to help someone who doesn't want help...

    what's wrong with society at the age of 22 someone given up on living..
