BLACK WOMAN 'OFFERED WHITE LIMBS AFTER AMPUTATION OP'
Sun Aug 24 2003 19:55:50 ET
A black woman who is to undergo a foot amputation was initially offered a white artificial replacement because they were cheaper, a hospital admitted tonight.
The unnamed woman from Calcot near Reading, Berkshire, is yet to undergo the operation and health chiefs have now backed down and offered her prosthetics matching her own skin colour after she complained.
The Royal Berkshire and Battle Hospitals NHS Trust said only white artificial limbs had been initially made available.
A Trust spokeswoman said: "She was originally told she would have to pay more for any other colour, but that has now been resolved."
She said the complication of having no less than six separate NHS Primary Care Trusts in the county had made funding difficult, but said following discussions, money had been made available.
"We accept responsibility for this patient's care and for the provision of her prosthetics. We will be working together with the Primary Health Care Trusts to address this issue and to clarify funding for future cases."
A spokesperson for the Disability Rights Commission said tonight: "It is an absolute disgrace that the NHS hasn't made suitable provision for a black disabled person. Disabled people shouldn't have to put up with a one size fits all attitude.
"In this day and age they should be entitled to the same choices as non disabled people in the services they receive."

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation.

I always thought it would be cool to have a glass eye made from obsidian.
