Hi,
My name is Lisa Morgan but all my friends call me Petal.
I was born in Dartford in Kent in 1973 where I lived until I was thirteen years old. I then lived in Bognor Regis until I was eighteen and for a while I moved around a bit living in Wales and Rochester and for about a year in an old car on the A21 in Sevenoaks in Kent. In 1993 I married my husband Graeme and we moved into a house in Charcott in Kent then one more move in 1996 saw us settling down in Hastings in Sussex at a place called Bulverhythe.I have been married for fourteen years and I have two children a boy aged twelve and a daughter aged ten.My two stepsons who are also my brothers still live with us. Charles is now twenty and Daniel is eighteen.I love animals and I have lots of pets. A snake called slinky, a golden retriever called bonus and two rabbits and five cats; Sadie, Angel, Mumble, Marley and Ghost.I have had quite a few jobs in the past, I have worked as a plumber, a painter and decorator, a model, a courier and an antique dealer and for about five years I ran my own little magazine with my husband Graeme.My book is not about me wanting to become a model again lol (I,m to old!) I just enjoy our old photographs and have no worries about sharing them with others. The photographs on this page were taken in 1994 and 2007.I like music, photography, films, concerts, theatre and the internet and I like to chat (endlessly I,m told :-) If you like to chat you can look me up on cherry and add me as a friend You are welcome to leave comments on this site and so long as they do not contain bad language or any to bad images I will post them up for youThank you for stopping by. I hope you have a great day.
Of all of the people I have known we are probably the most respectable. Sorry some spell respectable differently to me. I don,t mean m.o.n.e.y. I mean respectable as in love your family, look after them, put them first and don,t hurt anyone who has not hurt you first.If my husband was an injured terrorist he would get proper medical care but because his illness is caused by the very people who are paid to treat him he is left to care for himself! His doctors go home and live in luxury on the wages they get for their skill and the unbiased care they give to all of their patients all Graeme got was a letter saying "We have now changed the way that we do things" and we have to buy his care on the internet but one day we will raise enough to buy a scan and after that hopefully they will "Have to change the way that they do things again" If any genuine doctor on here reads this let me tell you straight I would give anything for a doctor who would help him and I do mean ANYTHING! and I don,t care what country your in.The truth is we are not as bad as we look and they are nowhere near as good as they want you to see them.Some say Petal is a bad bad story or that it is shocking or negative the fact is it is just truth, nothing more nothing less.Take a look at some of the places we,ve mentioned in our book.
I would rather
be me!
Apart from me and our Gorgeous children he loves Motorbikes he does,nt ride any more which is sad for us both because it was a hobby that took up most of our spare time and all of our working hours. Karate which he also cannot do anymore. Computers which is something that I will probably never understand but I,m getting better at all of a sudden (So Proud;-). Photography which is a shared hobby but both of us prefer the old days where there was actually a film to develope. Antiques which is another shared hobby and he does have an eye for a quality bargain. Cricket Oh So Boring! ZZzzz. Painting really bad pictures lol. Moto GP on the telly when they are good enough to show it. Playing the Guitar he does,nt do much of that any more because he cannot use three of his fingers. Playing the Drums which he also does,nt do anymore because its to noisy!. Backgammon a game he seems to be unbeatable at. Chess I,ve never seen him lose.He loves the theatre especially musicals. He liked Tony Blair (Yes it was him) and Margaret Thatcher.He hates Bullies and always stands up to them whether they are people-landlords or companies. Hypocrites especially if they are in a position like a doctor or social worker or landlord. Poverty. Illness. Greed. Drunks.
It does seem odd being us sometimes
I think that we must frighten some people because they only see a non existent bad side, especially professional people like doctors but it is difficult sometimes to show them the respect that they believe that they are entitled to as an added bonus to their wages. If their mercedes breaks down they expect a repair or a replacement but when they make a mistake which they often do they do not even apologise and some quickly hide their errors by disposing of xrays and patient records eagerly assisted by the current code of our collapsing nhs system. Graeme would not be ill today if they had done their job properly. I believe that my son would be dead if it had not been for the Daily Mail and why should,nt dirty doctors be exposed? How can we trust the good ones if they assist in covering up the bad ones?The professor we exposed from Scotland was not a figment of our imagination and he was not a GP he held one of the highest positions wthin the nhs even though he was not fit to be a porter. I must be really thick because if an MP gets caught committing adultery he usually resigns which is pretty daft when you think about it but when someone in the vey highest position of trust admits to raping a five year old boy...His own nephew! it can be made to disappear and remember these were not false accusations made by me the evidence we presented to the police and the newspapers included 27 letters by his own hand and a statement from one of his lovers. If he had been a dustman or a pop star he would possibly be doing twenty years now!. The doctor we exposed in Brighton was making photosets of 13 year old girls! but that was okay to. There are good doctors and bad ones but Harold Shipmans do exist I doubt he was as unique as we all need to believe.Sometimes I fear that our hospitals are turning into Passing Over Clinics Its quite scary! Some think that it was wrong of me to include the things that i did about my stepdad but I included everything that was true and why not? if you are going to write a true story why leave bits out? I don,t see why I should be ashamed of the things other people do and i don,t see why I should,nt write about the things they do to me. Even after he read my book he did,nt change!. I wanted to write a True Story and this is it.

Thank you for being curious enough to visit my Blog page. Actually its probably more like a diary so maybe I,ll change the name to Petals Diary.

A different Kind of True Story by Graeme and Lisa Morgan
A Very Lucky Guy. He says.
I say luck has got nothing to do with it. There are only a few photo,s of Graeme around he does,nt like having his pictures taken. (Old habits die hard) but the picture that some people get of him is very wrong.He calls it luck but the Graeme I know has never in all of the time we have been together refused to help anyone and I have never known him to run away.He has always loved me and he has never let me down and I would not swap him for anything or anybody.To me Love is letting someone right into your heart and then trusting them not to break it and I have the same faith in him that he has in me.Occasionally, like most people we have our arguments but arguing with Graeme is not an easy thing to do, they go something like this.
Graeme; I,m really lucky to have you.Lisa; No, I am really lucky to have you.Graeme; No, I,m the lucky one.Lisa, No, I am the lucky one.Graeme; You are the lucky one.Lisa, No I am the lucky one.

An enormous thank you to all of the doctors who have emailed me offering to help Graeme in return for a weekend away. I might be tempted if you were really doctors but twenty years driving a truck or working at Tesco,s does,nt make you qualified lol but keep trying! it gives me something funny to read

Graeme signed himself off yesterday and registered himself as self employed. I think that i is a disgrace that he had to do this and as much as I tried to stop him I do understand why he did it.
This country. Our NHS and social services claim to be so supportive of the disabled people in our society but its not really true they just get an awful lot of money to talk and spout flattering propaganda. Graeme will probably make himself ill trying to do things that he should avoid, normally I would say he would only have himself to blame but as it was our NHS services that caused his disability in the first place and their refusal to put their mistakes right that kept him like he is I will always blame them.
Tim Drake DARKTIME is Fiction!!! I,m not being slowly tortured to death!!! lol. Thank you for your emails though. Very touching.x
