“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

The ER Staff Are Not Defenders of Life. They Are Defenders of Ego



๐Ÿ–‹ ๐’ฎ๐’ฒ๐’œ๐’ฉ๐’ฆ Dispatch | 22 November 2024

“King Couldn’t Breathe, and They Couldn’t Be Bothered.”

๐Ÿฉบ A Child in Distress. A System in Denial.

Dear Dr Reid,

“I took King to the emergency room this morning and they refused to see him at all…”

No clinical examination.
No diagnostic listening.
Not even a gesture toward medical duty.

King — my child — stood before them visibly unwell, barely able to speak, and was turned away like an inconvenience.


“King is very sick and can barely even talk.”
But in this institution, that does not qualify him for care.
Why?

Because we do not collapse politely.
We speak — and they resent that.


๐ŸŽญ What NHS Defensiveness Looks Like in Practice

“They act so defensive as though I’m going to argue with them.”
Because argument, to them, is a mother who knows too much.
Because knowledge, for them, is a threat — not an asset.

This isn’t healthcare. It’s a gatekeeping ritual.
Conducted by staff more concerned with their own pride than a child’s oxygen saturation.


“They are hateful and leave us unable to breathe for months.”
That is not embellishment.
It is timeline.

Cumulative, compounding, recorded.

A hospital that treats concern as defiance, and a sick child as a disruption to its image.


๐Ÿ‘จ‍⚕️ Referral Request – Clinical Urgency, Not Performance Management

“King definitely needs to be checked by Dr Reid…”
Because you don’t require submission to provide care.
Because you listen. Because you treat.

And because elsewhere, clinical judgment has been replaced by procedural vanity.

You Want a Meeting About My Children—but Refuse to Be Recorded Doing It

 ⟡ SWANK Mapping Theatre Dispatch ⟡

28 February 2024


It’s Not a Mapping Session. It’s a Scripted Confessional for the Accused Parent.


Labels: mapping manipulation, non-consensual process, verbal dominance, refusal of recording, institutional mistrust, Royal Brompton medical record, SWANK boundary assertion

I. The Mapping Request Wrapped in Pseudo-Therapy
Samira Issa (RBKC Social Worker) writes on 27 February 2024, inviting Noelle to a “mapping meeting” on 1 March at Malton Road Hub.

She frames it as support:

“The purpose of this is to gather your views and feelings in regards to the wellbeing of your children...”

But embedded beneath this faux-therapy language is an unstated demand: submit to verbal vulnerability without evidence of safety or trust.

II. Noelle Responds the Next Morning—with Documentation, Not Emotion

At 10:31am on 28 February, she replies with:

  • A medical letter showing current health condition

  • A statement of care from Royal Brompton Hospital

  • A direct instruction:

    “If you wanted my current medical records... the best way to communicate is to ask directly.”

This is not a mother seeking approval. It is an administrative rebuke in health literacy prose.

III. The System Responds: No Recordings, No Accountability

At 16:42, Samira writes:

“We do not agree to be recorded... and if we have the sense this [is] being recorded we will terminate the meeting.”

Let’s be clear:

  • They will not state their concerns

  • They do not want their voices archived

  • They only want your testimony, not their own documented process

That is power imbalance by design.

IV. When Mapping Becomes Performance

Samira ends by thanking Noelle for her records from 2016—ignoring that her medical issues are ongoing.
She states:

“I hope [your concern about lack of clarity] is something we can clarify in the mapping meeting.”

Translation:
We’ll tell you the charges when you show up. Privately. Off the record.
