Late at night and can't sleep. Some poor lad has been seriously injured after escaping the ward (he only came in earlier in the day) which I can only imagine was via the roof (a plan I had considered earlier in my stay). No idea what his diagnosis is but I'd been a bit nervous as he was loud and had been scheduled to move into the bed next to me.

He was brought back by the police about an hour ago and they are waiting for an ambulance to come to take him to a&e. I was sitting in the lounge at the time he got here and his face is mangled, looks like he's been kicked in the head repeatedly... Pretty horrific.

Feeling really sorry for him... First day on ward<escapes<beaten by god knows who.



What a horrible thing to endure.
