Tomorrow, I have my "6 week" post-op follow-up appointment. My operation was 14 weeks ago. It was cancelled 3 times. That's definitely the mark of a well functioning healthcare system.
If someone can cure my Long Covid and guarantee that I could go back to work full-time, I would happily give them 5% of my monthly salary for the next 20 years. There is no “sick-note culture” there is a Long Covid & ME/CFS problem with zero medically approved treatments.
The richest Prime Minister in history – worth an estimated £529,000,000 – is demonising sick and disabled people. He wants us to blame our problems on anyone but the real culprits: The Tory government, their super-rich donors, and a system that puts greed before human need.
We are an alliance of 281 disabled and allied arts professionals and 35 organisations. This is our statement regarding our meeting with @The_Globe on Monday 18th March 2024.
There will be some people who say 'they aren't that sick....they are protesting!!' 1. If we don't protest who the hell will stand up for #pwME? 2. Most of us will face serious consequences from taking part in this #BringMillieHome online protest. We will be extra sick for days+
Reminder than the majority of people tweeting to #BringMillieHome have #MECFS and are themselves very ill. Sick people tweeting from their beds begging medics to not torture an 18 year old girl to death. #DontLetMEDie @gmcuk @RCPhysicians @rcpsych
Sophia Mirza was wrongfully sectioned in 2003 because doctors didn't understand #MECFS. This caused a deterioration which ultimately led to her death. 20yrs later and it happened to Millie. It has been lifted but Millie continues to be mistreated. #BringMillieHome #DontLetMEDie
🧵 Imagine being so ill, you’re too weak to eat or talk. Light, sounds, vibrations cause agony. Trying to do more than lie horizontally makes you even sicker. You’ll die without a feeding tube... #BringMillieHome #DontLetMEDie 1/
I hadn't seen Sasha in a few hours, which is unusual because she's normally so clingy. Found her trapped in the garage. She must've snuck in when I went to put something away 3 hours ago. This fucking cat I swear to god!
Article about the late Paul Alexander in the BBC today. No mention that it was Covid that killed him. Nice little paragraph explaining polio, though. And some gross ableism about "just getting on with it" to boot. 🤦♀️ bbc.co.uk/news/health-68…

@bphillipsonMP When is this “afterwards” of which you speak? We are still in it. I dread to think how many children especially, with zero vaccines and no air filtration in schools, are being disabled by the virus as we speak. And yet none of you admit it’s an ongoing problem.
People tend to think of classics as being “boring,” but we wouldn’t keep reading them for hundreds of years if we didn’t love them. Let me introduce you to some FUN classics:

I’m feeling overwhelmed by the world and how cruel we are right now So I started reading this, because I’m a perfectly normal person (No it’s not the one from “The Good Place”)
What are the best books that really highlight female rage?? Preferably fantasy but maybe a rom book if it does it super well
The lesson I've learned from this tweet is that a facet of being a queer youth is learning about gay kids being found dead in car trunks and ruled suicides and not everyone has this experience
if you don't recognize Nex's suicide ruling as primarily done to relieve guilt from the kids who killed them then idk why you're talking about it
this really fucks your relationship with your family even if they are kind enough to help you bc you have to be super nice all the time. what a surprise that spending four years basically in one room with no end in sight might make you a slightly angry person !!
