“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.

She Withdrew from Speech. They Replied with Silence and Surveillance.



⟡ “Verbal Isn’t Required — But Accountability Is.” ⟡

A mother declares her disability in writing. The state responds with escalation, not accommodation.

Polly Chromatic formally withdraws from all verbal communication due to documented asthma exacerbation and trauma injury, submitting this legal and medical declaration to Westminster social workers, their supervisors, and NHS clinicians. It was ignored — and then weaponised.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic — disabled mother, sole caregiver to four disabled U.S. citizen children — submitted this direct and clinical communication confirming that:

  • Verbal speaking triggers medical exacerbation

  • Institutional pressure to “speak” is discriminatory

  • All future communication must be written

She cited retaliation, coercion, and her medical exemptions.
She sent it to everyone.
Westminster responded with even more surveillance, more unscheduled visits, and continued refusal to comply.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • A clear clinical boundary was documented, timestamped, and distributed

  • That boundary was not respected

  • Professionals involved included safeguarding, legal, and medical staff

  • No written reply was issued; the parent was punished instead

  • The institutional aim was not to support — it was to provoke


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because when a disabled mother says “This is harming me,”
and the state says “Say it louder” — that’s abuse.
Because refusing to speak isn’t defiance — it’s survival.
Because if silence is your right, then retaliation is their crime.


IV. Violations

  • Breach of Section 20 & 21 Equality Act (Failure to make reasonable adjustments)

  • Medical harassment through forced verbal interaction

  • Safeguarding retaliation for documented disability disclosures

  • Breach of Articles 3 and 8 ECHR (inhuman treatment, private life)

  • Failure to implement clinical protections acknowledged by NHS consultant


V. SWANK’s Position

Polly declared her limits.
They saw those limits as a challenge.
This email is not a request — it’s a line.
And every violation past this line is now recorded.

Forever.

⟡ “I Was Doing Better — Until She Made Me Speak.” ⟡
Health collapses. Again. Because Kirsty Hornal couldn’t read a sentence.

Polly Chromatic was recovering — until another verbal ambush from Kirsty Hornal set her back by weeks. This email, sent to solicitor Laura Savage and NHS consultant Philip Reid, documents the exact health impact of forced speech following documented, ignored disability warnings. It is quiet. Devastating. And unimpeachably clear.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic had communicated her limits.
Repeatedly.
In writing.
No verbal communication. Medically exempt.

Then Kirsty Hornal showed up and forced a conversation.

Result:
– Two to four weeks of post-encounter symptoms
– Loss of ability to socialise
– Inability to perform daily activities, like visiting the playground
– Emotional withdrawal and despair

And yet somehow,
Kirsty still thinks she’s “supporting” the family.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That Polly was experiencing health improvement prior to forced verbal contact

  • That verbal speech caused medical regression, emotional injury, and isolation

  • That the professional in question was repeatedly informed in writing of communication boundaries

  • That both legal and medical professionals were directly alerted

  • That this pattern is not theoretical — it’s documented, predictable, and traumatic


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because institutional abuse isn’t always loud.
Sometimes it’s a “quick chat” that steals your lungs.
Because writing down what harms you shouldn’t result in it happening anyway.
Because being nice doesn’t excuse being harmful.
And because no one gets to call it “care” when it’s forced, known, and damaging.


IV. Violations Identified

  • Breach of documented verbal exemption and disability adjustment agreement

  • Disregard for mental and physical symptoms triggered by forced contact

  • Pattern of retraumatisation by a known actor (Kirsty Hornal)

  • Emotional withdrawal and reduced quality of life directly caused by professional behaviour

  • Institutional failure to intervene or de-escalate despite ongoing harm


V. SWANK’s Position

Polly was healing.
Then Kirsty came to talk.

Again.

The system always demands the same thing — voice.
Even when it’s the one thing she cannot give without breaking.

And every time they ask,
the cost is weeks of health,
days of silence,
and now —
one more file.

The Email to Kirsty Hornal and Sarah Newman

“We’re still trying to get to a point in which we are not on the verge of death and the entire time I’ve been telling you all this.”
“Even the hospital doesn’t believe me when I or my children go to A&E with 87% oxygen.”
“If one of us dies, you all are responsible.”

“You escalated the case due to my inability to talk verbally, forcing me to talk for over a year while bringing illness into our home.”
“This caused me muscle dysphonia, making it very hard to speak now.”
“I had to stop talking to my mother and friends because of the extreme load placed on my lungs.”

“You—all social workers, especially Sarah—must be held accountable.”


Disability Statement

Please Note: I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult. I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.

The Plea That Went Unheard

On 14 December 2024, Polly Chromatic wrote the following to Kirsty Hornal and Sarah Newman, with Laura Savageand Philip Reid copied:

“It’s like no one takes me seriously and I don’t know why, as I’ve been very clear—yet no one will talk to the hospital and find out why.”

And in one unanswerable sentence:

“Probably better to stay home and die.”

That is not drama.
That is data.
That is what happens when all forms of available communication are ignored.

It’s not that help isn’t possible.
It’s that they chose not to connect the lines between her, her hospital, and her truth.

Filed Under: Disability Accommodation Failure · Customer Harassment · Verbal Adjustment Denied · Racial Misconduct · SWANK Incident Report


The Incident at Apple Covent Garden

While seeking support for my iPad at the Apple Genius Bar, I encountered verbal hostility and adjustment refusal, in direct violation of disability law.

Despite calmly requesting pen-and-paper communication due to my verbal disability and respiratory strain, the Black male staff member ignored the request and escalated the situation—threatening to call security after I raised my voice to be understood.

I clearly stated:

“This is racial bias. You are accusing me because of how I sound, not what I’ve done.”


Manager Intervened, But Harassment Continued

Though a manager briefly assisted, a second employee—also of Black ethnicity—then intervened aggressivelyverbally harassing me further and threatening to misreport the incident internally.

Again, my medical communication request was ignored.

This was not a misunderstanding.
It was systemic: a commercial institution refusing written communication and punishing disability with suspicion.

๐Ÿ“ฉ A Message Lost in the Ether

“I’ve sent many emails to Laura which have been ignored also such as this one…”
“I can’t talk, so I want these people to leave me alone now.”
“They ignored my emails for months.”
“Even my own lawyers aren’t paying attention. It’s sick and evil.”

Ignored requests. Invalidated access needs. Exhausted time and effort.
This is not neglect. This is a pattern.

“Please Note: I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult. I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.”

You cannot claim ignorance when the access requirement is printed at the bottom of every single email.

“I really don’t want anything to do with anyone cuz it’s too hard to communicate.”

This isn’t avoidance. It’s exhaustion.

✉️ My Communication Philosophy

“If they ignore me, I just move on with my life due to incompatibility.”

Communication is not a demand—it is a choice. I respect yours. Kindly return the favour.


๐Ÿง  Refusal to Read Is a Form of Misconduct

“Human motto: ‘I misunderstand and I refuse to listen so I continue to misunderstand.’”

This is not miscommunication. It’s strategic ignorance.


๐Ÿค How Communication Works in My Life

“My boyfriend reads my emails and then we talk—verbally, but only after reading.”
“This is how everyone respectful in my life handles it.”

Read first. Speak after. That’s the adjustment. That’s the law.


⚠️ A Request for Legal Respect

“It makes no sense for me to email my lawyers about my case only for it to be ignored or treated like it’s ‘for fun.’”
“I think it’s weird.”

PATTERNS OF MUSCLE TENSION DYSPHONIA: A GUIDE TO RECOGNITION AND RECOVERY

Filed From: Flat 22, 2 Periwinkle Gardens, London W2
Author: Polly Chromatic
Filed Under: Muscle Tension Dysphonia · Vocal Strain · Speech Therapy · Psychosocial Stress · Voice Rehabilitation · SWANK Medical Dossier


✨ UNDERSTANDING THE DISORDER

Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD) is a voice disorder caused by excessive muscular tension in the larynx and surrounding areas. This interferes with natural voice function and renders speech physically taxing and often painful.


๐Ÿ” COMMON SYMPTOMS

  • Voice Quality Changes: Hoarse, strained, or breathy voice; reduced pitch or volume control

  • Vocal Fatigue: Physical exhaustion from speaking; rapid onset during conversation

  • Neck and Throat Pain: Tightness or discomfort in the shoulders, jaw, or throat

  • Maladaptive Compensation: Overusing facial or neck muscles to force phonation

  • Situational Triggers: Phone conversations, arguments, and hostile environments worsen symptoms

  • Psychosocial Overlay: Stress and emotional strain induce or exacerbate muscular tension

  • Rest-Dependent Recovery: Symptoms lessen with silence but quickly return under duress


๐ŸŽฏ MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Specialist Voice Therapy: Techniques for relaxation, posture, and vocal pacing

  • Mindfulness & Stress Reduction: Therapeutic support for trauma-induced patterns

  • Hydration & Hygiene: Vocal self-care practices to prevent irritation

  • Structural Support: Postural correction and breathing techniques

  • Protection From Harassment: Communication must be on the terms of the disabled person—not the aggressor


⚠️ CONTEXTUAL NOTE

This condition has not emerged in isolation.
It is the physiological consequence of institutional harassment, forced verbal interaction, disbelief, and verbal coercion by state actors—including social workers, police, and NHS representatives.
The result: a formally diagnosed medical condition that obstructs everyday life, worsened with each ignored adjustment.

๐Ÿ“ฉ THE EMAILS THAT CAUSED A CRISIS—BECAUSE YOU REFUSED TO READ

“The refusal of humans to read my emails and/or not take me seriously is causing me panic attacks since it’s the only way I can communicate.”
“I don’t know how else to explain it. I’ve been saying the same thing for ten years and no one wants to read or listen.”

This is not ambiguity. This is documentation.
This is not emotional instability. It’s institutional cruelty disguised as procedure.


๐Ÿง  TRANSLATION FOR THE PROFESSIONALY HARD-OF-READING:

– Written communication is not optional for disabled people.
– Ignoring it is not minor. It is medical malpractice.
– Panic attacks are not personality flaws. They are evidence of your failure.

You are not misunderstood. You are unfit.


⚠️ THIS IS A CRISIS, NOT A QUIBBLE

The refusal to accommodate written communication for a disabled mother is not just a bureaucratic blunder.
It is neglect, cloaked in procedure.
It is discrimination, typed in Times New Roman.
It is violence, filed as “no reply necessary.”

๐Ÿ“˜ THIS ISN’T A CASE. THIS IS A CLASSROOM.

“It’s been very disruptive to homeschooling to have social workers disrupting our day for ten years for no reason…”

This is not child protection.
This is pedagogical vandalism.
You have not observed—you have interfered.
Ten years of unsanctioned intrusion is not diligence. It is dysfunction, draped in lanyards.


⏱ MISSED APPOINTMENTS. MISSED CHILDHOOD.

“…and all the no shows are irritating to us all.”

You no-show.
You reschedule.
You forget.
And yet you call it professionalism.

A child learns something from every encounter.
Yours have taught mine that time doesn’t matter, and promises are ornamental.


๐Ÿ“Ž STILL NOT VERBAL. STILL NOT YOUR PROBLEM?

“Please Note: I cannot speak verbally. Please email only. I do not own a phone.”

This is not an aesthetic preference.
It is a medical mandate.
Failure to comply is not inconvenience—it’s discrimination.

You cannot assess when you refuse to listen.
You cannot safeguard when your presence endangers the lesson plan.

๐Ÿงช THE MOST DANGEROUS VIRUS I KNOW: IRRESPONSIBILITY

“Social workers are the most consistently irresponsible group of people I’ve ever met.”

Not undertrained.
Not underpaid.
Irresponsible—willfully, institutionally, and without consequence.
Where others bring professionalism, you bring a pathogen.


๐Ÿ˜ค PHYSIOLOGICAL OUTCOME: ASTHMA. PANIC. DISGUST.

“The lack of accountability and the pervasive irresponsibility cause me asthma attacks and panic attacks.”

This isn’t metaphor.
This is a medical reaction.
Your visits, your delays, your bureaucratic theatre—all of it lands in my lungs.
You are not “providing care.”
You are a walking aerosol of neglect.


๐Ÿšซ THIS IS A BOUNDARY. NOT A REQUEST.

“I’m tired of being forced to have these irresponsible people in my home and in my life.”

If your presence makes me sick, your absence is treatment.
I don’t need support. I need quarantine—from you.


๐Ÿ“Ž ADDENDUM: I DO NOT SPEAK. I DO NOT PHONE. I WILL NOT REPEAT.

“Please note: I cannot speak verbally. Please email only. I do not own a phone.”

It’s not a preference.
It’s an adjustment.
And if you can’t handle typing, you’re unfit to safeguard anyone—especially the chronically unheard.

๐Ÿคง I’M ALLERGIC TO IRRESPONSIBILITY. LITERALLY.

“The lack of accountability and the pervasive irresponsibility cause me asthma attacks and panic attacks.”

Your names are not on the medication.
But your negligence is in the bloodstream.
You are no longer professionals.
You are airborne irritants—credentialed and chemically destabilising.


๐Ÿง๐Ÿฝ‍♀️ I DON’T WANT YOU IN MY HOME. I DON’T WANT YOU IN MY AIR.

“I’m tired of being forced to have these irresponsible people in my home and in my life.”

This is not a tantrum.
This is a triage response.
When the so-called service enters the premises, so do the symptoms.
Your visits constitute an environmental hazard.


๐Ÿ“Ž I CAN’T SPEAK. I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO REPEAT MYSELF.

“Please note: I cannot speak verbally. Please email only. I do not own a phone.”

If you require phonation to comprehend safeguarding,
you are categorically unfit for the job.
Refusal to accommodate is not oversight—it is malpractice.

๐Ÿงฌ RESPIRATORY COLLAPSE IS NOT “PARENTAL NON-COOPERATION.”

“Every time a social worker comes in our home we are all sick for the next two to four weeks with a respiratory virus.”

This is not a metaphor.
This is viral epidemiology dressed up as safeguarding.
You arrive in lanyards and leave as vectors.


๐Ÿ“š THIS ISN’T SUPPORT. IT’S SYSTEMIC VANDALISM.

“Homeschooling, work, social activities, and my kids’ classes have all been negatively affected by your insistence on continuing to interfere…”

Your presence subtracts from every sphere of life.
You’ve weaponised bureaucracy into a domestic pollutant.


๐Ÿฉบ TEN YEARS OF MEDICAL EVIDENCE. DENIED BY CLIPBOARD.

“I have stated repeatedly that we all suffer from eosinophilic asthma… you have all refused to take me seriously.”

The condition is real.
The documentation is plentiful.
The disbelief is manufactured.


๐Ÿ“Ž VERBAL REFUSAL REMAINS LEGALLY BINDING.

“Please note: I cannot speak verbally. Please email only. I do not own a phone.”

This is not a preference.
It is a protected adjustment.
Your continued disregard is a breach—medically and legally.

When I Say I Can’t Breathe, I Don’t Mean Emotionally.



๐Ÿ–‹ SWANK Dispatch | 23 November 2024
YOU KEEP TREATING ASTHMA AS AN ATTITUDE. IT’S A CONDITION.

๐Ÿงฌ THREE SIMPLE FAILURES (THAT DESTROY BREATH AND DIGNITY):

  • Hospital staff who argue instead of assess

  • Inaccurate measurements used as emotional cudgels

  • Lifelong disbelief masquerading as protocol

You’ve mistaken medical emergency for personality flaw.
Our lungs don’t require your opinion—just air.


๐Ÿ’ฌ A BREATHLESS TESTIMONY:

“Dr Arjumand asked for the history and then told me: I don’t believe you.”
“She said it several times while I was struggling to breathe.”
“Before that moment, my breathing was amazing—a first in over a year.”
“I don’t want to argue about it. They can check us, and if they don’t want to help, we leave.”

You don’t assess.
You antagonise.


๐Ÿ‘ A LIFETIME OF NON-BELIEF:

“My whole life I’ve had to do this because no one believes me when I say I can’t breathe.”
“This includes schools, universities, parents, employers. Everyone.”
“Now I watch my children get treated the same way. And I get blamed for defending them.”

What you call "concern," we recognise as generational disbelief.
And it’s been archived.


๐Ÿซ WE WANT ASTHMATIC FRIENDS, NOT GASLIGHTERS:

“Blind people have blind friends. Deaf people have deaf friends. Even races stick to their own.”
“We want friends who have asthma. Severe asthma.”
“People who understand what it means to live like this.”
“We create our own fun. We invite those who respect our lungs.”

We are not antisocial.
We are allergically selective.


⚠️ SOCIETY IS THE ISOLATOR. NOT US:

“We are isolated due to our asthma and society’s unwillingness to accept us.”
“We want to be social, but not with people who deny our experience.”
“It is traumatising because no one understands us.”

Inclusion without understanding is surveillance, not solidarity.
We decline the invitation.


๐Ÿ“Ž ACCESS STATEMENT (FOR THE RECORD, AGAIN):

“I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult. I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.”

You ignore our lungs and interrogate our tone.
We are done performing for your disbelief.

Three Problems, One Condition, No Compassion.

WE JUST WANT TO BREATHE—NOT BE BLAMED FOR EXISTING.

❌ THREE RECURRING INSTITUTIONAL FAILURES:

  1. Defensive hospital staff who treat symptoms as accusations.

  2. Protocol defiance and diagnostic laziness, dressed in lanyards.

  3. Gaslighting as standard—“We don’t believe you” as a care plan.

Dr Arjumand repeated—several times—“I don’t believe you,”
while I was visibly, audibly, physiologically struggling to breathe.
My children watched. No one intervened. Again.


๐Ÿซ THE LONGEST SYMPTOM: DISBELIEF

“My whole life, I’ve had to explain my inability to breathe—and still not be believed.”
“From classrooms to clinics, I’ve been called dramatic, then blamed for being right.”
“Now my children are punished for their lungs, and I’m vilified for defending them.”

There is no gas stronger than medical contempt.
And no inhaler for institutional ego.


๐Ÿ‘ HUMANITY REQUIRES MIRRORING—NOT SURVEILLANCE

“Blind people have blind friends. Deaf people have deaf friends.
Even racial communities seek mutual comfort.”
“We want friends who breathe like us. Who understand what it means to survive the air.”
“I breastfed all four of my children to prevent this illness. They got it anyway.
And they are still the only ones who understand me.”

This isn’t martyrdom. It’s physiology.
And you’re not listening. You’re watching with a clipboard.


๐Ÿ’ก OUR REQUESTS (WRITTEN, AS ALWAYS):

  • Respect the written access adjustment.

  • Treat us without interrogation.

  • Stop requiring verbal performance to access care.

  • Believe the data, not your mood.

  • Stop punishing asthmatic existence.


๐Ÿ“Ž ACCESS STATEMENT: STILL VALID. STILL IGNORED.

“I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult.
I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.”

This is not ambiguity.
This is refusal to perform your preferred pantomime of health.

When Breathing Is Treated Like a Social Offence.



๐Ÿ–‹ SWANK Dispatch | 23 November 2024
WE MOVED FOR FRIENDSHIP. YOU GAVE US ASTHMA SHAME.

Filed From: Flat 22, 2 Periwinkle Gardens, London W2
Author: Polly Chromatic
Filed Under: Asthma Discrimination · Social Misreading · Community Hostility · Verbal Disability · British Allergy to Vulnerability · Snobbish Expat Testimony · SWANK Statement on Medical Intolerance


๐Ÿ“จ WHAT I WROTE (AND YOU MISREAD):

“We felt isolated in Turks and Caicos and came here because we love the people and socialising…”
“However people here don’t like that we have asthma.”
“It’s like you are all angry at us for having asthma. Period. That’s how we feel.”
(But we feel better now that you are all helping.)

The irony, of course, is that you were never helping.
You were reacting—to our breath, our boldness, our refusal to perform wellness for your comfort.


๐Ÿ’จ A BREATHING OFFENCE IN A NATION OF SIDE-EYES

I arrived under the illusion that the UK was a place of civility and inclusion.
Instead, I found a kingdom where asthma is treated like insolence—
and breathlessness is met with bureaucratic punishment.

You whisper behind clipboards.
You raise eyebrows at oxygen monitors.
You blame the disabled for disrupting your illusion of order.


๐Ÿง  STILL TELEPATHIC. STILL DISMISSED.

“I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult.
I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.”

And still—
I must explain my lungs.
Justify my sentences.
Rationalise my silence.
To those who claim to support.


๐Ÿ“Ž CONCLUSION:

We moved for friendship.
We got forms.
We came for inclusion.
We got inspection.
We sought community.
We found clinical disdain.

๐Ÿ’ฌ THE LINES THEY STILL PRETEND NOT TO HEAR:

“No one will tell me what the ‘erratic’ behaviour was, given that I’ve only said I want treatment and can’t argue due to respiratory strain.”
“When a woman in the waiting area was abusing me, they blamed me.”
“All the hospitals share the same hatred and ignorance of asthma.”
“They refuse to treat my kids more than they refuse to treat me.”
“I’m going to sue them. It’s child neglect.”


๐Ÿง  VERBAL AUSTERITY STATEMENT:

I do not argue.
I breathe.

If you want to help—help.
If you don’t—move.
I will not waste oxygen proving my suffering to those who monetise disbelief.


๐Ÿงฌ ACCESS STATEMENT (STAMPED, SENT, IGNORED):

“I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult. I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.”

Every refusal is now a receipt.
Every conversation denied is a case number pending.


๐Ÿ“Ž PRE-SUIT REMINDER:

You refused access.
You denied medical care.
You blamed me for needing it.

And now you’re logged.
Publicly. Permanently. Procedurally.
