The only thing worse than a kid having cancer is a kid having cancer while the Bitter Half commandeers the hospital for a photo op, as happened to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital on Wednesday. Angie Rouse Green vented some of her rage on Facebook the day before: “RANT: I am LIVID!!!!!! I just got a phone call from a St Jude mom whose son is battling a brain tumor. … Tomorrow, this little boy has his MRI. The results come after. His mom was told that she cannot bring her husband with her to get the MRI results! “Why you ask?? Well, because the first lady and her entourage will be in the hospital tomorrow for, I assume, a photo shoot and Secret Service has pretty much shut down to bare necessity our hospital. Only one person allowed per patient, no social media in hospital, no photos in hospital, cars will be towed in garage, more than one person with patient will be turned away at the gate by Secret Service!” She added, “People, this is a children’s cancer hospital! Now a mother may have to receive possible horrible MRI results alone without the child’s father! Really?! Someone needs to think about the children before their care is compromised for the sake of publicity!” St. Jude specializes in treating children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases. 628x471-2 Sally Coley Leger wrote, “It’s a really sorry day when they kick parents out so this lady [sic] can come. A child could die today without his/her parents around because the first lady doesn’t want both parents/family with their loved ones. If you can’t come and let things be normal, then do those babies an even bigger favor and stay home!” But what enraged parents might not realize is that the FLOTUS had a very important messageto impart to miserably sick children facing death: “[S]ometimes living in the White House and being married to the President and trying to live a life like that, it can be hard.” It must lift the children’s spirits tremendously to know that their situation could be worse; they could be heaped with unearned wealth, fame, and power, and have to spend large parts of every year blowing $millions of other people’s money on lavish vacations!!
