Auntie Charo's Soapbox

He didn't resign....filed his taxes, took a day or two off....while Peter John Camacho sat in his administrator's chair at GMH the last couple of days....while the media played the 'did he or didn't he resign' song during their many newscasts....and one wondered, did anyone bother to take down his wife's picture from his desk? What happened to his personal objects? Who cleaned/wiped away the things that were Bill McMillan's when he was 'removed' from his job as the hospital administrator? It was kinda like pulling the breathing plug on a dying patient, huh? Just pull it and he's gone? Just like that? Then you can say, oh, he gave me a verbal, I quit, he's gone, take down the pictures, put them in a plastic bag and he's gone! He says he didn't resign but it's his word against theirs...outta sight, outta mind, unplugged, gone!
Tonight, the hospital board will meet at GMH and the media will try to cover the meeting but guess what? They'll be told that it's an 'executive' thing and what you and I will want to know (the truth and nothing but) will be kept secret and little bits will trickle out...perhaps GMH will give Mr. McMillan severance pay...as I recall, he had to leave a good paying job in order to become the administrator of the Titanic......
In the meantime, one hopes that Peter John Camacho remembers that he didn't leave GMH in a better place than he found it and that the only thing he has going for him is that he's a local kid and we usually don't kick local kids out on the street like we do outsiders.
Let's see how transparent tonight's medical board meeting's going to be!
