Thanks for spreading the word. π
Hospitalisation numbers are significantly worse: 129 so far in 2025, including a few vaccinated. 92 children. (From p2. The number you cited was from a subset.)

We jest, but ofc in people with autonomic dysfunction post-surgical bowel issues can be a real problem. Rooting for you!

Good friend. That's as it should be. Wish everyone (esp abled ppl) realised that a small sacrifice on their part could be the difference between recovery & catastrophic deterioration.
P.S. I must be "properly pooped" too, because I read "pooped" as a verb, and was ready to celebrate your bowels. π

Oof. Glad you're still with us. β€οΈ
Here is a well intentioned cat cuddle of questionable efficacy.

Hope surgery can be done soon, and get you some relief. You've suffered far too much and too long, with all the NHS delays.
Wishing you an uneventful (and un-virus-ful) hospital stay. π

So well said. Thank you for weighing in.
And I *really* like the title you gave it.

Look at that sign, imagine how many people who wanted to be there today, couldn't be.

Heartbreaking. Infuriating.
Your daughter was more astute and a better communicator at age 8 than most of the healthcare practitioners we encounter.

The chronic illness community online loves Anna, & has the resource of knowledge. But we need someone who can take her in. π #SaveAnna #CovidIsNotOver #LongCovid #DV

I do hope someone can welcome Anna into their home, even if unable to commit long-term. To give her a chance at survival & better health.
She can pay rent.
Another crucial need is an advocate: someone willing to become familiar with her needs, and then coordinate other willing helpers. π

Anna lives in Melbourne with her abusive family. She has exhausted all avenues for government help.
Brain function (see quoted βοΈ) is affected by #SevereME, especially in PEM, and malnourishment. We need to get her out of there before she can no longer communicate at all. Please share. π #SaveAnna

... affects only female bodies
nullifies all those other facts, I guess. π

Making (unevidenced) lifestyle changes for a complex disease is a sign of desperation, not empowerment. It is a sign of a complete failure of medical research and progress. It is a sign the burden is on patients to "try harder"
This is a cop out phrase to hide systemic failures

Heh. I read that too, had the same reaction. π
Pls can there be the same energy for FINDING OUT WHAT THE π€¬π€¬π€¬ ENDO *IS*? "The womb-like tissue of endometriosis is able to grow new nerve cells..." This disease should be as concerning as cancer. I'm sick of doctors/society talking as though it's NBD.

Everyone shocked & horrified by RFK Jr should reflect on when they started treating Covid as something that only hurts people who donβt take care of their bodies or who have defective genes & not something THEY need to care about anymore. Cuz anyone still masking isnβt shocked
