Produktbeschreibung
'Double double, toil and trouble, round about the cauldron go. In the crushed brains and spinal cord throw, thalamus, spleen, and tonsils also, then cool it with tainted blood, Well done, for we shall gain a greater profit to share with the farmers and our meat trade.' A factual and harrowing account of Mark Buckland's, a young man's, progressive decline by variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD), the human form of BSE; namely 'Mad Cow's disease'. This book documents the shocking failures by a Conservative Government when it came to food safety standards, a cannibalistic feed that defied nature and led to a misfolded protein causing an infectious brain disease, and failures by the NHS and Department of Health regarding the NHS Blood Transfusion Service. This is also a tale of a father's grief, family and friends who pull together in a tragic time to support a special, loving and caring man, who has his life spat out by the 'Witches within Westminster'.
Autorenporträt
Peter Buckland is a grandfather to three boys from his two daughters and remains married (just about). The loss of his son to an incurable disease brought a devastating darkness to his remaining family. Peter felt a compelling need to share this tragedy and try and make a difference within government and the blood transfusion service.
