Email to Dr. Philip Reid outlining asthma medication for three children, requesting appointments, and documenting hostile treatment by hospital staff — while reasserting verbal disability adjustments.
I. What Happened
On 23 November 2024, Polly Chromatic sent a concise medical update email to GP Dr. Philip Reid, cc’ing social worker Kirsty Hornal and Bcc’ing legal and mental health contacts.
She listed prednisone regimens for Honor, King, and Prince, requested appointments, and offered clinical notes relevant to Romeo’s hearing. The tone was direct, composed — but embedded with barbed precision:
“Hospital staff are hateful, defensive, belligerent, bellicose, pugnacious, and contentious.”
It closed with a disability disclaimer that managed to be both comic and clear:
“I prefer to communicate telepathically… however, email is fine.”
II. What the Complaint Establishes
Written-only communication preference restated to medical and social professionals
Timely asthma updates and ear complaints entered into the care record
NHS hospital staff conduct formally characterised as combative and emotionally unsafe
Coordinated medical planning initiated by the parent — not institutions
Discrimination context: medical requests had to be buffered with humour to protect against dismissal
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because this is what a disabled parent looks like when navigating a hostile system with intelligence, precision, and respiratory strain.
This email is more than a health update — it’s a meta-document: proof of parental competence, verbal disability, multi-child care coordination, and medical trauma, all in one message.
It also reveals how language must contort to remain tolerable — mixing humour with medication requests, and diplomacy with descriptions of abuse — just to be read.
SWANK logs it because you should not have to sound lighthearted to be believed.
IV. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t just a message to a doctor.
It was a health safeguarding record — and a subtle diagnostic of the system itself.
We do not accept that serious disability notices must be disarmed with wit to avoid being ignored.
We do not accept that documenting hospital hostility is “inappropriate” when that hostility is medically relevant.
We will document every line where humour was used as self-protection — and every clinic where courtesy was confused with credibility.
