Fantastic , I am very sad that the system did not work in your favour and you had to advocate for yourself because of this you should be so proud of yourself.Hope you get a plan and appropriate professional support in place, but in the future if need be argue your corner. I have had to do this a few times on the journey and it has always paid up. Chris

Well done. It can take courage but it's worth it. As much as we like to think that everyone has our best interests at heart - in reality they don't always!

Thinking of you

That's great, well done. I think that every time one of us makes them listen they will be more likely to listen to the next person without so much hassle. You're a star.
