“We Don’t Argue. We Breathe with Precision.”
Filed Under: Respiratory Violence · Verbal Coercion in A&E · Child Protection by Silence · Adjustment Refusal · SWANK London Ltd
Dear Kirsty,
“All they want to do is argue.”
And I want to live.
This is not a disagreement.
This is a documented breach of medical protocol—masquerading as “communication.”
When we arrive at A&E, we are not offering persuasion.
We are offering symptoms.
And the response? A combative interrogation.
“We don’t have time or respiratory capacity to do that.”
Not then.
Not ever.
Not again.
“After they abuse us, everyone blames me…”
It is a pattern.
Refuse care.
Demand justification.
Pathologise the victim for failing to perform the dialogue that harms them.
This is not miscommunication. It is deliberate institutional cruelty, enforced by expectation of verbal labour from the breathless.
And Honor?
She will not be sacrificed to the same ritual.
“Apparently other people can talk more easily because they waste it on arguing so often.”
Correct.
We don’t waste oxygen.
We speak like sovereigns.
When we do, it is sacred, strategic, and documented.
“We only talk when it’s meaningful.”
That is not avoidance.
That is clinical clarity.
And if you cannot match that precision, you have no business presiding over breath.
