Thank you all so much for your replies and ideas....I have appt with the CEO on Friday morning, so will let you all know how it goes.
I am prepared to go to the media with this and I am sure they would love a story like this, but I do know that I am up against a huge organisation, so I am not getting my hopes up. The hospital Chaplain came and saw me and she said she will back us all the way...so that is good.
