The 53-year-old former MDT coordinator for gynecological cancer took a new baby to her son’s ex-girlfriend after discovering which ward she was in. She is now in arrears and “can not afford to pay” her bills after she was fired for violating her contract on February 9th. She is currently trying to appeal the decision in a desperate attempt to get her job back, BirminghamLive reports. “I put my hands up on what I was doing, I apologized. My heart went out in front of my head. It was really an act of kindness,” said Ms Kings, who worked for the NHS for 15 years.
