    Hallo. When I posted some information on this group before Christmas some people found it difficult to accept, even though it was reliably sourced. It can be hard to learn that there is another side to an intervention previously hailed as life-saving. So rather than write in this group, where people...

    The first day I was home my husband tripped on it and I have stepped on it, caught it in a chair and nearlly ripped it out.
