There's an update on Savannah's gfm. TW so much medical abuse.

Please keep sharing and donating!

By trying to find somewhere less unsafe, she has now lost her NHS provided carers. She's too unwell to do without, so needs to self fund them.

Thank you 🙏🏻

Update: UK ME/CFS Biobank Steering Group - The ME Association The ME Association (MEA) has invested £1.095m in the UK […]

Would've been nice if our orgs wouldn't just do business as usual during a #SevereMErgency.

Exactly one mention of "severe" in a sub sub bullet while one of us hasn't eaten in 9 weeks under NHS care.

Where's the urgency? Lives are *literally* on the line. Govt yet to acknowledge #SaveSavannah

"Thank you for your ongoing support for Savannah. Today again we are calling on the community for help. 

In the absence of any national database of safe doctors for pwSevereME, we want to hear from you if you could make any hospital recommendations for the (Very) Severe, ideally with a bed Savannah could be transferred to. Primarily in the UK but since we're not sure if this even exists here, we're also open to recommendations in nearby countries. 

For instance, a German hospital gave Dutch pwVerySevereME Sanne TPN and we will be reaching out to her team. Open to suggestions for NHS and private doctors alike. 

If you know of anywhere, please fill in this very short form: 

https://tally.so/r/81KxGO. QR code with the link attached too. 
We have thought long and hard about this, as there is a huge inherent risk in such a move for even further deterioration, but Savannah feels we have to consider all options to get her out of QEH before they kill her. 
To be clear: we are not asking for “miracle” doctors, ones with wild “cures” or alternative treatments. We're simply asking for doctors who acknowledge the physical causes of ME and won't try to psychologise her. 
We know what medication keeps Savannah alive. We just need to find a safe bed with a safe consultant who will reinstate those meds (both her IV Cyclizine and pain relief), and provide a stimulus-free environment for her to recover enough to have TPN installed."

New update posted on Savannah's fundraiser. TW Severe medical abuse, go carefully.

QEH reduced her pain relief even further now. While completely ignoring sensory issues, keep barging in on her. Unannounced capacity assessment... How is she supposed to recover?

Thank you Tessa! Please keep the pressure up on the health minister.

If QEH are allowed to continue as they are, we will have another "never event" soon. They must be forced to restore the meds that allow her to take on nutrition and deal with pain.
