Tatasmum Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I've been thinking about you today @primrose, we know of two families that lost children in young adulthood to illness so different circumstances to Oliver. Is there any support group for families that have lost loved ones due to medical negligence? My heart goes out to your family knowing this was preventable but if you can connect with families that have been through a similar loss it might just help in some small way X 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primrose Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 Thankyou I actually started my own Facebook group. Sadly Oliver’s horrific death is far from isolated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiz Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I haven’t been able to stop thinking about what happened to your darling son and all of you. You really are in my thoughts and prayers. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primrose Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 Thankyou Fiz. I’m exhausted fighting for justice for Oliver. I’m determined his petition will succeed but I still need another 70,000 signatures. I’m very active on twitter but just don’t know where else to push this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiz Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Is your P.M being helpful? Our M.P is a nurse and very active in social justice. She might help. Her name is Karen Lee and she is on Twitter as Karen Lee MP and I am FizzieLou. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 When you first posted it, I thought about suggesting we move it to Not Dance in order to reach a wider audience, but then I thought you might then not get the support of all the Doing Dance people. Let me think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiz Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Primrose, I have sent your petition by Direct Message to Karen and asked her if she would consider becoming involved. I don’t know if she will but she might. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me think about it. Alison it’s wonderful having the support of everybody on this site. It’s a site that feels like a real family where we all run to support each other. We sometimes disagree and even fall out but it never lasts for long. I used to log into this group every day for about 14 years. I’m now needing you all to help me with Oliver’s petition. Many members knew of Oliver as I did mention him from time to time Edited July 16, 2018 by primrose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annaliesey Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Signed. So very sorry for your loss. In this day and age there simply are no excuses. My heart goes out to you and your family. Ill share wherever I can via social media. could we have this as a pinned post at the top of the forum maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primrose Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Thankyou so much. As a grieving mum I’m just shattered and heartbroken. I am determined Oliver’s death will not be ignored especially when he should be at college doing his sports course. This training is so important. I would embrace Oliver’s petition to be pinned at the top but who can authorise that 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hfbrew Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I've been sharing too albeit to much smaller network I'm afraid but very sympathetic due to our links both personal and work wise with people on the autistic spectrum. There are no words that are adequate to comfort you Primrose but please know that there are many people out there who are trying to at least highlight your cause. I sincerely hope that the required number of signatures is reached. (Mine has been verified.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiz Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I have shared this on Facebook and Twitter too as well as my M.P. Unfortunately she said that Parliamentary rules are very strict and she is not allowed to involve herself with another M.P’s constituent. She did ask me what other avenues you had tried, Primrose. I’m sorry not to be of more help. xxx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a "thumbs up" smiley. I think, actually, that's the way to go - branching out from this forum and getting the word spread more widely. People here are supportive, of course, but our numbers are limited. I'd share too if I were actually on social media 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatasmum Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I have shared the petition again on my own Facebook page. I know sometimes posts aren't seen but the minute I share a family photo everyone can see it.

Jan McNulty Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Link to the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/paulamc007/ Link to the petition: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/221033 IIRC when you have signed and verified your signature on the petition you are given an option to share to Facebook, twitter or by email. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
