Today is World Health Day ✨

10 years ago today, a moment changed the course of my life.

I was injected against my consent - after already trying to recover from a treatment that made my condition worse.

I was refused a referral to a specialist.

What followed was years of navigating a system without the awareness, structure, or supports needed.

Over time, that meant:

— Multiple surgeries

— The loss of 6 organs

— Being unable to work full time

— Losing life plans

— 3 years of hidden homelessness

— A long legal battle

But this is also a story of rebuilding.

From a small online community in 2015…

To adapting when we temporarily lost our website in 2020 due to a server issue…

To creating spaces where real stories can be heard…

And now - Cneasú the Podcast 🎙️

Today, there is a national endometriosis framework.

And I now have access to specialist, trauma-informed care.

That progress matters.

But we cannot ignore what happened before it.

This is why this petition exists.

👉 We are calling for a National Endometriosis Inquiry

👉 Accountability for past and current care

👉 Trauma-informed systems across healthcare

👉 Real supports for those navigating chronic illness

This isn’t just about my story -

it’s about ensuring no one else is left behind.

We are building momentum - but we need your help now.
