house, I'm telling you.

00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,319

740
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:55,319
you know, butties and sausage rolls
and cakes and all that stuff.
741
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,639
And my brother, Tam,
he'd go like this...
742
00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:00,519
He would pick up a load
of stuff in his right hand
743
00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,879
and then he'd stash it
under the table in his left hand.
744
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:05,039
And he would keep eating
with the right hand.
745
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,599
And when everything was gone
and the table was empty,
746
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:09,959
he would just resort
to what was in his left hand.
747
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:11,319
Greedy bastard.

I knew there was something wrong.
I didn't know he was carrying on,
757
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,959
but I knew something wasn't right.
758
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:01,079
So I said, "Why don't
we try for a boy?"
759
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,239
Thinking that would sort it.
760
00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,879
But that's what he'd always wanted,
you see, deep down.
761
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:10,079
Anyway, he just said, "No, I'm
happy with just the girls
762
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,279
"and nothing was wrong."

back to you.

Um, about that coffee...

01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:30,399
I wondered if we could, you know,
maybe try again some time?

Coffee?
888
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:42,279
Look, you tried having her back
here and you failed.

better than you ever will,

Half the time she doesn't
even recognise you.
899
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:09,199
You're doing it because she's your
mother

Well, it's a council house

and she wouldn't pay it on principle.

Does she have any other assets?
No.

01:19:08,360 --> 01:19:12,959
Self-contained, very proud,
very principled.

did her personality change?

Jenny's called in nearly
every day to feed and medicate her,

1041
01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:36,999
She is violent and lashes out at them,
1042
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:39,199
out of terror, I think.
1043
01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:40,520

There's nearly a million
old people with dementia

they need costs serious money.

And why spend serious money on the old?

01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:34,440
There's a report in front of you.
1059
01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:42,519
I think you will remember, Amanda,
1060
01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:45,239
that we went to the Court of Protection
1061
01:20:45,240 --> 01:20:48,079
cos Mum wasn't capable
of granting us power of attorney.
1062
01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:49,240
Yeah.
1063
01:20:50,240 --> 01:20:52,159
To do that, you need
a consultant report,
1064
01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:55,160
so I'd like to read
that to you, if I may.
1065
01:20:59,000 --> 01:21:01,879
"Mrs Taylor has suffered a major
stroke and has developed
1066
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:04,279
"severe cognitive impairment.
1067
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:06,639
"She has expressive and receptive
dysphasia
1068
01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:09,079
"and cannot retain information.
1069
01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:12,479
"She is confused
and fails to understand.
1070
01:21:12,480 --> 01:21:15,319
"It is extremely difficult
to communicate with her.
1071
01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:18,319
"She was found wandering the ward,
agitated and occasionally
1072
01:21:18,320 --> 01:21:19,719
"very aggressive.
1073
01:21:19,720 --> 01:21:22,159
"Mrs..." Sorry.
1074
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:24,239
"Mrs Taylor has significant
mental health issues
1075
01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:27,439
"and has lost
the ability to make decisions.
1076
01:21:27,440 --> 01:21:29,639
"There has been no evidence
of any improvement.
1077
01:21:29,640 --> 01:21:32,599
"It is likely that these adverse
effects will be long-term.
1078
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:37,039
"She needs supervision and 24-hour
care from qualified nursing staff
1079
01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:40,439
"for her medication and other
daily activities."
1080
01:21:40,440 --> 01:21:42,919
He seems to think she's seriously ill.
1081
01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:46,480
You seem to think she's fine.
Why such a difference?
1082
01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:56,679
There's another form in front of you.
1083
01:21:56,680 --> 01:22:01,600
This is the questionnaire
that my mother supposedly filled in.
1084
01:22:02,760 --> 01:22:05,639
This is the document
that I think cost my mother
1085
01:22:05,640 --> 01:22:07,520
her continuing health care.
1086
01:22:09,760 --> 01:22:11,559
"Do you feel happy?"
1087
01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:13,199
Answer A, all of the time,
1088
01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:16,400
B, most of the time,
C, rarely, D, never.
1089
01:22:17,480 --> 01:22:20,239
My mother has answered,
B, most of the time.
1090
01:22:20,240 --> 01:22:22,759
And there's lots of other
questions on there,
1091
01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:26,559
as you can see, that my mother's
answered A's and B's for,
1092
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:28,239
nothing critical whatsoever.
1093
01:22:28,240 --> 01:22:31,679
So this woman who the
consultant described as
1094
01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:35,319
"unable to understand
and difficult to communicate with"
1095
01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:38,560
has answered every single answer
on this form.
1096
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:42,599
Are you saying someone else
filled it in?
1097
01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:44,159
Yeah, I am.
1098
01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:47,959
I mean, if you gave my mother
a form, she'd eat it.
1099
01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:49,200
Miss Jennings?
1100
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:53,880
I can't explain it, I'm afraid.
1101
01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:00,800
Anything else?
1102
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:03,680
Yeah.
1103
01:23:08,560 --> 01:23:12,319
My mum has been in hospital
just twice before.
1104
01:23:12,320 --> 01:23:14,880
When she had me and when she had Claire.
1105
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:19,439
Apart from that, she has not
cost the NHS a penny,
1106
01:23:19,440 --> 01:23:22,759
yet she's contributed to it
her whole working life.
1107
01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:24,160
Well, now she's sick.
1108
01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:29,039
She needs 24-hour nursing care.
1109
01:23:29,040 --> 01:23:33,199
She needs a doctor, a counsellor,
a gastroenterologist,
1110
01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:36,879
a physiotherapist,
my mother deserves these things.
1111
01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:40,160
She deserves a place
that meets her needs.
1112
01:23:48,360 --> 01:23:49,760
Anything else?
1113
01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:54,920
Miss Jennings?
1114
01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:01,239
In that case, can I ask you both
to step outside for five minutes
1115
01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:03,600
whilst we have a quick chat?
Thank you.
1116
01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:32,599
Hi. Hi.
1117
01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:34,479
Thanks.
1118
01:24:34,480 --> 01:24:36,520
A disadvantage. Yeah.
1119
01:24:38,680 --> 01:24:40,480
I'm sorry.
1120
01:24:56,640 --> 01:24:57,920
Can I say something?
1121
01:25:01,400 --> 01:25:04,599
I'd like to give you all a break,
1122
01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:08,479
treat dementia with the seriousness
it deserves in hospitals like mine.
1123
01:25:08,480 --> 01:25:10,280
But do you know what that means?
1124
01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:13,519
A nurse being called away
1125
01:25:13,520 --> 01:25:16,479
from a young person fighting for life,
1126
01:25:16,480 --> 01:25:19,240
because an old woman
in the next room has shit herself.
1127
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:24,560
Please come in.
1128
01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:38,280
Thank you for your patience.
1129
01:25:49,440 --> 01:25:53,040
A committee must decide only
on the evidence before us.
1130
01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:58,119
However, we are in agreement
that this assessment does not
1131
01:25:58,120 --> 01:26:01,159
accurately reflect the state
of Mary's health
1132
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:03,959
and we are therefore ordering a
new assessment to be carried out
1133
01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:05,719
as soon as possible.
1134
01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:07,559
This will take a while.
1135
01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:10,960
But I can tell you now that we are
minded to allow your appeal.
1136
01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:14,719
So you should go ahead and look
for a nursing home
1137
01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:16,959
that can cater for Mary's needs.
1138
01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:19,559
And if, as I believe,
you have already found one,
1139
01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:22,240
perhaps you should start
talking seriously to them.
1140
01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:28,199
You will receive a letter confirming
this over the next couple of weeks.
1141
01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:31,320
Thank you. Thank you for
your time, good to meet you.
1142
01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:38,840
There you go. That's it.
1143
01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:49,960
We're thinking of adopting.
1144
01:26:57,320 --> 01:26:59,680
I've been on the IVF
for a while now and...
1145
01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:04,560
...so, we're trying something else.
1146
01:27:57,880 --> 01:28:00,720
Hello, Mary.
Welcome to Marshal House.
1147
01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:03,640
