You Got the Email Before the Collapse. You Just Didn’t Want It to Be Real.

⟡ “It Hurts to Speak. But You Still Expect a Performance.” ⟡
An exhausted but deliberate message from Polly Chromatic to Westminster safeguarding officer Kirsty Hornal and legal counsel Simon O’Meara and Laura Savage. The email is short. Calm. And clear: the parent is in medical crisis. Speech is physically painful. Alternative access options (sign language, email) are proposed. The implication is simple: if you continue to escalate after this, it’s no longer negligence. It’s malice.

Message sent to Westminster safeguarding and legal teams during an acute episode of respiratory and verbal disability. Asks for space, minimal contact, and recognition of communication limits. Suggests use of sign language or email. Reinforces that talking causes harm. Does not accuse. Does not plead. Merely informs — and makes the record complete.

I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic sent an email that said:

“It hurts too much to talk.”
“I feel very sick when I try to speak.”
“I know sign language and would rather do that.”
“If I have to speak… it could make me pass out.”

She wrote it while struggling to breathe.
She sent it to:

Kirsty Hornal
Simon O’Meara
Laura Savage
And blind-copied a trusted witness.

No request for sympathy.
Just clarity.
And evidence.

II. What the Email Establishes

That verbal communication was medically unsafe
That WCC and legal professionals were formally notified
That accommodation alternatives were proposed
That silence or verbal withdrawal were not avoidance — they were clinical necessity
That this message forms part of the “collapse-to-record” sequence

It is the medical moment before the archive went fully non-verbal.

III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because safeguarding doesn’t mean forcing speech from someone choking. Because access doesn’t mean waiting until it’s convenient for you to care. And because when the system keeps calling meetings you can’t attend, and asking questions you’re not well enough to answer — the only ethical response is a written record that proves they knew.

SWANK archived this because:

It is your clearest post-verbal disability notice
It introduces alternative access options that were ignored
It shows your condition in real time — not theory
It is an intake-ready exhibit for clinical negligence and safeguarding retaliation claims

IV. Violations

Equality Act 2010 –
• Section 20: Refusal to adjust procedure when speech is unsafe
• Section 27: Re-triggering harm through contact after boundary
Children Act 1989 –
• Procedural misuse of CP systems when parent is medically incapacitated
Human Rights Act 1998 –
• Article 3: Psychological and physical harm via procedural aggression
• Article 8: Violation of family life through unsafe demands
SWE / Legal Ethics –
• Expecting verbal performance from a known disabled parent = misconduct

V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to say she was uncooperative when she said: “I’ll use sign language.” You don’t get to treat breathing difficulty like non-engagement. And you definitely don’t get to keep convening meetings when the parent is telling you: “This is making me pass out.”

SWANK London Ltd. classifies this email as a clinical disengagement record, verbal accommodation request, and legal notification of post-verbal communication limits.

⟡ “This Is Me Thanking You. It’s Also Me Leaving.” ⟡
An email sent by Polly Chromatic to NHS clinician Laura Savage and a cross-agency panel including Westminster, RBKC, and legal representatives. The message is calm, gracious, and definitive: the parent is withdrawing from all direct communication due to trauma, disability, and procedural harm. Communication becomes documentation. Explanations end. SWANK begins.

A multi-agency notice announcing disengagement from all further verbal and written contact. Explains the parent’s respiratory and trauma-related disability. Reaffirms public record strategy via archive and Instagram (@pol.lychromatic). No hostility. Just jurisdiction. This isn’t a breakdown. It’s a record shift.

I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic wrote to:

Laura Savage (HSMH)
Kirsty Hornal, Sarah Newman, Fiona Dias-Saxena (WCC)
Gideon Mpalanyi (RBKC)
Dr Philip Reid (Chelsea & Westminster NHS)
Simon O’Meara (Blackfords LLP)
Private mental health practitioners

She said:

“I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult.”
“I never want to have to explain anything again, verbally or written.”
“I am documenting everything on Instagram @pol.lychromatic.”
“Thank you for everything you have done to support me.”

No accusations.
No demands.
Just closure, by clause.

II. What the Email Establishes

That disability-related disengagement was lawfully and calmly declared
That future communication silence is not abandonment — it’s protection
That safeguarding channels were notified of withdrawal in writing
That public record jurisdiction was activated in plain English
That this was not an emotional impulse, but a strategic act

It’s not disengagement.
It’s a legal boundary with a timestamp.

III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because after 18 months of repeating the same medical truths to the same institutional inboxes, the only thing left to send is a severance clause. Because explaining becomes its own trauma. And because once the harm is archived, there’s nothing left to add — just consequences to observe.

SWANK archived this because:

It’s the formal exit moment from local engagement
It preserves proof that the parent did not vanish — they documented
It affirms that disability law protects silence when safety demands it
It closes a chapter and opens a timeline

IV. Violations (if Contact Continues Post-Notice)

Equality Act 2010 –
• Section 20: Disregard of disability communication limits
• Section 27: Continued contact post-boundary = harassment
Human Rights Act 1998 –
• Article 8: Autonomy and psychological safety violated if recontacted
GDPR / Data Protection Act 2018 –
• Processing data post-withdrawal without lawful basis or consent
Social Work England Professional Standards –
• Contacting a disabled individual who has explicitly withdrawn participation

V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to say she didn’t tell you. She copied all of you. You don’t get to call it non-engagement when she wrote it down and filed it. You don’t get to treat polite closure like evasion. And you don’t get to demand speech from someone whose illness you caused.

SWANK London Ltd. classifies this document as a multi-agency communication withdrawal and jurisdictional redirection notice, archived for evidence, reference, and public memory.

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

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

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.

She Made Me Talk. Now I’m Sick Again.

⟡ “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.

When Accessibility Meets Resistance: A Tale of Tech, Tone, and Tenacity

“Apple Refused to Accommodate My Disability—Then Threatened Me”

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 aggressively, verbally 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.

📩 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.

🧠 A Clear Statement of Needs

“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.

🚫 Final Notice

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

This isn’t avoidance. It’s exhaustion.
When no one listens, silence becomes protection.

“I can’t have anyone in my life who can’t read emails and understand they are for information, to help understand the problem.”
“If someone doesn’t want to understand, then they should leave me alone.”

Information withheld is harm. Misunderstanding isn’t neutral—it’s negligence.

🧠 The Core of the Issue

“People like Simon or the psychiatrist waste my time complaining about how I communicate.”
“I’m tired of that.”

Communication access is not up for review. It’s a boundary backed by law.

✉️ My Communication Philosophy

“I don’t like being rushed and I don’t rush anyone.”
“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.

🧠 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.

🤝 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.”

So do I. And so would any tribunal.

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.

🔍 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

🎯 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.

📩 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.

🧠 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.”

📘 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.

📎 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.

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

No-shows are not neutral.
They are passive-aggressive power plays masquerading as oversight.
You schedule. You vanish.
And we are left explaining your absence to children more punctual than the state.

🧪 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.

😤 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.

“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.

📎 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.

Why Bureaucratic Incompetence is Literally Gasping-for-Air Material

🤧 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.

🧍🏽‍♀️ 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.

📎 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.

🧬 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.

📚 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.

🩺 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.

📎 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.

🖋 SWANK Dispatch | 23 November 2024
YOU KEEP TREATING ASTHMA AS AN ATTITUDE. IT’S A CONDITION.

🧬 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.

💬 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.

👁 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.

🫁 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.

📎 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 RECURRING INSTITUTIONAL FAILURES:

Defensive hospital staff who treat symptoms as accusations.
Protocol defiance and diagnostic laziness, dressed in lanyards.
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.

🫁 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.

👁 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.

💡 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.

📎 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.
