“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

💁‍♀️ An Educated Woman's Tragedy: Being Reviewed by the Medically Illiterate


📜 A Catalogue of Social Work Illiteracy: My Medical History Rendered Invisible

🎯 Opening Salvo: A Letter for the Woefully Undereducated

Dearest Ms. House,

It is with considerable reluctance (and a faint smile of pity) that I pen this clarification.
Your latest PLO correspondence — absurdly suggesting "exaggeration" — was such a magnificent display of misunderstanding that it demands archiving.

📚 A Gentle Reminder of My Medical Superiority

🩺 Infant Health Records

  • Iowa Medical Report (1981): Six emergency admissions and three hospitalisations before the age of 18 months.
    Asthma, diagnosed, treated, and apparently still invisible to modern social workers.

🏥 Formal Respiratory Diagnosis

  • Royal Brompton Hospital (2015): Diagnosed with eosinophilic asthma following rigorous evaluation.
    A diagnosis one does not "exaggerate" unless Brompton themselves have joined the pantomime.

📑 Recent Confirmations

  • Jose Record (2024): Childhood-onset eosinophilic asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis, mild osteopenia — treated, managed, documented.
    Ignored by you with a zeal worthy of a court jester.

🧪 Environmental Health Catastrophe

  • Sewage Gas Exposure (2023): Inhalation of toxic fumes resulting in serious exacerbation.
    Still not sufficient to move your departments' glaciers of comprehension.

🧠 Psychological Fallout: Courtesy of Your Colleagues

🎭 Muscle Tension Dysphonia

  • Caused directly by being forced to speak during respiratory crises.

  • Diagnosed after sewage exposure and worsened by forced communication with social services.

🧩 Psychiatric Assessment by Dr. Rafiq

  • Diagnosed Social Anxiety Disorder and Adjustment Disorder.

  • Direct causation traced to social worker harassment and forced speech demands.

👑 Selective Ignorance: A Social Work Tradition

Despite exhaustive documentation, your department clings to selective readings, misinterpretations, and spectacular omissions.
A tradition so proudly upheld, it now deserves UNESCO recognition.

👶 Bonus: Prince’s Asthma Legacy

  • Diagnosed May 9, 2012, Miami Children's Hospital.

  • Nebuliser treatments administered as needed, despite your institution’s spectacular lack of curiosity.

🖋️ Reasonable Demands (That Should Not Need Explaining)

Henceforth, all communication must be written.
This is not a "request" borne of whimsy, but a medical necessity born of your past neglect.

Access to all referenced medical records is available via my Google Drive, should your department muster the energy to peruse them.

🎀 Closing Remarks

I await confirmation of your compliance with these modest, medically supported adjustments.
Do take your time. After all, greatness is rarely rushed.

Yours,
Polly Chromatic
