Trapped

So I a victim of the system, trapped, because of the inability to deal with me and my complexity of disability.

After talking to the Dr yesterday I understood that she agreed to my discharge today but today the Dr says no because of 3 notes on my file unrelated to my original illness and minor in nature.

The worst part is the way I am treated, like a child. They refuse to engage with me, to talk to me. No one asks about my needs what could be my reasons to prioritise going now. Its a simple abuse of power because I can't enforce my rights. So instead I am ignored and now they whisper behind my back with symptomatic murmers. So belittling.

Since the night I arrived I have felt myself getting smaller and smaller.

I won't be home tonight, I don't know when I will be home.

Oh sweetie I can’t begin to imagine how difficult your life is at ANY time let alone being kept in a hospital without any voice. Don’t you have someone, an advocate, that can help you. You are in my heart xxxcoralxxx
