Popular Post geisha Posted February 18 Popular Post Share Posted February 18 13 hours ago, GroveHillWanderer said: Being allowed out of hospital doesn't automatically indicate that he's not sick. Whatever his medical needs may or may not be, someone with his resources can surely arrange to receive medical attention at home that would probably be as good as what he was receiving in hospital. Yes, as in many countries , home nursing is a choice. a nurse or two comes by every day , checks blood, tension etc, and as Thaksin is very well off he will have his own doctor come every day too. Lots of day dreamers on here. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now let's have some justice for Yingluck by bringing her back home. Do you think all wanted criminals should come to Thailand and get the VIP treatment or only the rich once or what do you suggest? What do you think will all the other corrupt politicians learn from this? Be honest, or you go to jail? Or will they learn something else? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TheFishman1 Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 The image of him is almost laughable with an arm, brace and neck brace. I guess you’re trying to cover all bases but the day before he came in and when he flew it in his private brand new jet, he looked pretty healthy to me. The whole thing is is unbelievable. How could the people believe this crap TIT 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobU Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 19 hours ago, Mr Meeseeks said: Too ill to be in prison, but not too ill to go home. You forget that he is a wealthy man he can build a small hospital at his home and employ expert medical staff to give him the same, or better, care as at the police hospital. However the government will not go to the considerable expense of building such facilities at the prison. Therefore I agree he perhaps is to ill to go back to prison but not too ill to go home where he will receive further medical care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of procedure involves inserting a catheter at the artery in the neck which is directed under x-ray control to the heart. Immobilisation of the neck and arm is to stop the arterial wound from tearing open. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think logically your comment doesn't make sense. He was a prisoner at the hospital and could not be discharged back to prison because there are no facilities for his care at the prison.

Popular Post IamNoone88 Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 Its a charade. The van had curtains, conveniently left open for the photographers. Cheap props of a neck brace and unrelated arm sling conveniently discarded once he was home for his next photo op by the pool.
