Worried

I am very worried about some of my friends in detention. One man last week had sewn his lips together in protest. This meant that he was also on a hunger strike which lasted at least 6 days. This is a clear sign that depression and anxiety is high. One of my friends admitted that he had suicidal thoughts that same week and was taken to a psychiatric hospital and pumped full of drugs. A 'holiday' to make him feel better?

It makes me feel like passing on the message - we need to spread the word about refugees. People's lives are at stake.
