SHE WAS COLLAPSING. YOU GAVE HER ANTIBIOTICS—AND NOTHING ELSE.

🧒🏽 HEIR’S TREATMENT TIMELINE—IF ONE DARES CALL IT THAT:
“The hospital didn’t do a chest x-ray.”
“Put Honor on a second antibiotic.”
“Said to give prednisone.”
“Told me to follow up with the GP.”
Diagnosis? None.
Compassion? Missing.
Prescriptions? Abundant.
A checklist masquerading as care.
She was in collapse, and they were performing protocol theatre.
🫁 THE AFTERMATH WAS PHYSICAL—FOR BOTH OF US:
“Now I can’t breathe after that experience—and I was breathing well before.”
“We just got home.”
Medicine should not require recovery from the visit itself.
But with the NHS, harm is not a side effect. It’s the main event.
🩺 THE EXCEPTION THAT PROVED THE INSTITUTIONAL RULE:
“I would have rather just had Dr Reid do it all…”
“I don’t blame him for their ignorance.”
“Thank you, Dr Reid.”
There are still doctors who understand dignity.
They just don’t seem to be staffing A&E.
📎 ACCESS STATEMENT (IGNORED, AS ALWAYS):
“I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult. I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.”
They ignored the scan.
They ignored the breath.
They ignored the patient.
But the archive will not ignore them.
