Did anyone see Prime Time last night? They were talking about the use of Electric Charge Therapy on the mentally disabled. What I found really shocking was one of the people who was against this treatement was a woman who had a baby in 1975 – reacted badly to the drugs and within days of giving birth, they decided that she must have PND gave her this against her will. She has lost all memory of holding her new baby.
OMG – the things they used to do to us women. How could they possibly imagine that a woman just after a baby, high on hormones should need this type of therapy.
Apparently, as the law stands, two doctors can overrule the patient and force this treatment. This is currently being reviewed.
