A grandmother was tasered by police after stabbing her husband 17 times when she snapped under the pressure of caring for him, a court heard yesterday.
Florence Thomson, 78, had just moved home with her husband Keith, 79, who has Alzheimer’s disease, when she ‘flipped’ and repeatedly plunged a carving knife into his chest, causing him horrific injuries.
She looked ‘totally deranged’ when her daughter called in by chance after the attack, prosecutors said, and ‘had a wild look in her eyes and was covered in blood’.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
