"It's unjust, it's completely unfair. I don't know how they can call it robust when it's put me at such a large disadvantage."He says she would come home from the COVID-19 wards haunted by the tragedies she saw inside but now feels let down by a system they all wanted to support.Ashley is now worried about his son Osian who will get his GCSE grades on Thursday.
