apparently they are sending people for radiation therapy to Tauranga (privately) or Australia.
apparently there is some twenty-something who says she was diagnosed with hodgkins lymphoma. started up a 'go fund me' webpage. to raise funds for the public hospital. to raise funds for her government funded treatment in the public hospital. one can only suppose...
they are producing 'radiation therapists' out of Otago. apparently they just work the machines that are programmed to settings... anyway, the software doesn't work right now.
it is pretty sh*tty that my mothers GP said she was fine over the years. nothing to worry about. then all of a sudden she has stage 4 mantle cell lymphoma. all of a sudden. apparently there are two different kinds of mantle cell lymphoma. the one that's slow growing and doesn't require treatment. and the one that's fast growing and kills you and doesn't require treatment.
my mother trusted the public health system of new zealand.
the system that is a fraud on all of its people.

and of course i know the private health system isn't any better.
and of course i know that australia is only minimally so.
and ethically...
well...
what am i supposed to make, seriously, of a country whose strategy for self-promotion and self-growth is to keep new zealand down and back so that it appears to be ahead?
a country who promotes itself as being where the very best of the new zealanders goes?
etc?
i saw how the ANU treated students from NC. When NC had invested in ANU students over the years. When the economic situation shifted and NC was having a down-turn and Australia was having an up-turn. And Australia refused to come to the party. To reciprocate. When it really should have re-invested in that direction.
students who should have been treated with the respect that their students were treated with... put in situations where they were encouraged to over-imbibe and relentlessly mocked. inhumane.
it's hard to find that admirable.
