A child's tragic story ended my nursing career

A child's tragic story ended my nursing career

A child's tragic story ended my nursing career

When I left the children’s hospital at the end of a shift I used to tell myself that none of the patients or their families existed outside of the building. It would be as though I’d walked out of a cinema, and I’d leave behind all their tragic stories; but there was one patient who refused to cooperate.

A Break-In at Pine Gap

A child's tragic story ended my nursing career

On Easter Monday night, Bryan Law, a tall, portly taxi driver from Cairns and committed peace activist, was found dead in his Rockhampton home. The 57-year-old had once again been preparing to defend himself in court after he attacked a military helicopter at the Rockhampton airport in July last year. I met Bryan in an Alice Springs court in 2007 where he and three other people were defending charges of trespass after arguably the most daring protest of his career: a break-in at Pine Gap.

HOW MUCH LONGER WILL WE HAVE TO KEEP DOING THIS? #MARCH4JUSTICE

It is the coming of irreversible change that is part of what Robbie James, guitarist with GANGgajang, seeks to evoke with his new composition Dreaming in the Sands, performed for the first time at the Metro Arts Centre, Restrung Festival on Friday night, by the Bentley String Quintet.

And that’s why hundreds of women (and some men) came together on Monday, in Brisbane and around the country, to express how angry and tired we are of constantly having to assess our safety. Of being forced to take responsibility for being safe from violence perpetrated by men, as though they are primitive predators with no self-control and no expectations from the community to behave with respect towards women. Enough is enough.

BRISBANE’S LATEST TGA-APPROVED MEDICINAL CANNABIS CLINIC.

As you might have gathered this week, the Australian Government will splash almost any amount of cash on almost anything remotely to do with killing people in other countries, including remotely killing people: $7 billion has been flagged for unmanned drones over the next decade. The 2021-22 Defence budget is a staggering $44.6 billion. Of course, that’s chump change compared to the “over $90 billion” that the nuclear submarines will cost, but it’s fair to say it’s boom time in Australia for anyone who’s in the business of making up high-tech ways to kill people.

BRISBANE’S LATEST TGA-APPROVED MEDICINAL CANNABIS CLINIC.

Medicinal cannabis is now legal in Queensland, as long as it is prescribed by a medical practitioner. However, it is not legal to drive with any amount of THC (the active ingredient in cannabis) in your system, regardless of whether it’s been prescribed.

I put this dilemma to Releaf Group Founder and CEO Gary Mackenzie last week. Releaf, established in 2017, is Australia’s first dedicated medicinal cannabis clinic and dispensary; they opened their first Brisbane clinic in Fortitude Valley on Monday.
