We have a young a&e attender (sickle cell) who comes in at least once a week. They barely look up from their phone when they check in. Or when anything else is being done for them (bloods, obs etc...). No please or thank yous when asking for blankets and hot chocolate. We are pretty sure they’re just hooked on pain relief. I can’t stand patients that do this with their phones. They are so rude, it really takes the piss.

I am actually so so so disgusted by this. You really honestly need to think about your role as a healthcare provider if you think its ok to spout such toxic prejudiced nonsense.

Fully echo the other poster who says you should educate yourself on both sickle cell and poor care/health outcomes for black people.

Sickle cell is a painful debilitating chronic disease that takes over lives and shortens it. I'd be rude to if I had to spend every week in pain in hospital under the care of judgemental people like yourself. People with sickle cell are frequently not believed, called drug seekers and not given adequate pain relief.

Grace Victory: The Girl Who Lived (on the sofa)

Top comment on the article

Another case of her thinking she's god's gift instead of being grateful for medical professionals. Yeah you might have told them, but at the end of the day they're going to do what they think is medically correct and safe. But sure, it's all about your intuition not the medical team that worked tirelessly for yours and your son's safety.

Wow what a kick in the teeth for the families of the people who didn't survive. You'd have thought a life changing event like this would change a person, but no.

I don’t think now is the time for this kind of thing. We’re not doctors. It’s inappropriate.

I may be in the minority and I truly don't wish to offend anyone, but not to address it would be the elephant in the room. She's been in poor health, out of breath and chronically tired for years, Covid was the icing on the cake.

As long as no one is bashing her - and I'm sure we are all wishing her well - I don't see the problem in mentioning the obvious. She spent the entire pregnancy, complaining about ridiculous things (not being able to go on holiday), marginalising people who couldn't have children via her manifesting, and playing down the reality of a plus sized pregnancy. And this is someone who makes a living from her size and all that comes with it.

I’m not anti-vax in any way, I have had all mine and my 7 week old baby is due to have his first lot next week, but I am anti covid vax... at the moment, I feel as if there hasn’t been enough time for me personally to know the potential side affects on my fertility, and I don’t want to knowingly have the vaccine if it could potentially affect me having any future children, and I think I’m well within my rights to do that without being accused of ‘killing people’ pr being selfish

May I direct you to this thread where you can spout your uninformed opinions.

Just read the news and this is so sad. Not a big fan of hers and even I’m crying.
Such a sad situation, especially when there is a baby involved, luckily he has his father with him. I would like to ask that people do not make this about weight. Covid does not discriminate and those in intensive care are not always overweight. The weight will not help in her ability to fight this off but we cannot blame it on her situation at a time like this it’s not factual and is cruel and unnecessary. Grace is not in intensive care because of her weight she’s in there because she caught covid.

So she woke up from a coma after missing 3 months of her life, no longer pregnant, potentially on a ventilator or at least receiving oxygen in a hospital bed. They stuck her on FaceTime and her first thought was “Lee, sling one up me lad”. Grace is wild.

I’m no fan of Grace and have huge issues with many things she has said/done throughout her pregnancy and before. What I do know is there is a premature baby, a woman in a coma, and a family in turmoil. I know comment policing isn’t welcome so I’ll bow out now but think perhaps some comments can wait.

We’re not.

But you can’t deny her weight plays a part in this. It’s sad but it’s the truth. I’m sorry but I’m not sugar coating anything. Truth hurts.
She’s had trouble breathing before today due to her size and now she’s got a baby who’s premature and she’s fighting for her life.

She is obese with covid.

If you’re telling me to ignore it then you’re as bad. It would be all the same for someone with anorexia. Your body just can’t take. You’ve worsened yourself already and you’ve got an added illness?

Its a sad situation. I am by no means wishing the worst on her.

But it this is reality, this is what has happened and when you don’t take care of yourself on top of having COVID then this is the solid proof of putting to bed all of that “big girl magic” and “fatphobia” rubbish.

This is coming from someone who has witnessed their own father drop down dead from a heart attack a couple of years ago as he was a big man himself. Obesity did that.

There is no time like the present to tell the bloody truth about someone.

Other than that, I wish Grace a safe recovery and after all of this to properly start taking care of herself. Not just to her but for her son.

You're not the brave hero you think you are with this case you're trying to champion at this precise moment in time.

No I believe in my NHS colleagues and science/medicine that saved you.

I mean... you say this but the reason this was said was because Grace essentially said people with fertility issues didn’t ‘manifest’ hard enough to not have fertility issues?


Just because a bad thing happens doesn’t undo all her asshole behaviour before. If this happened to someone else I wouldn’t put it past Grace to say they hadn’t manifested hard enough.

We all don’t wish ill on her, but she has said some awful things and I don’t think we should just pretend she hasn’t because she is ill.

Is he off to jurassic Park?

Poor lisa is getting slated - this is why I don't use Twitter, it gives me anxiety

I've been a creeper (& proud) on this site for a while purely out of curiosity but I've just found this thread and christ on a bike it's fucking grotesque. Some of you have a brass neck making the comments you do about a previously comatose woman.

To sit down and type atrocities on your crumb-covered phones with zero remorse or consideration for what Grace, her family (Inc her son) have been through in the last three months. I honestly feel sorry for some of you because your lives must really be going down the shitter if you've got time to sit around all day and make vile comments about her weight. And don't get me started on the speculation about the medical procedures she's undergone and recovery time.

Ultimately, if she hadn't have came back to social media, some of you troglodytes would have nish to talk about so I think she's done you a solid

This is CHARLEIGH VICTORY!

Her tweet because I’m me is such a massive insult.
My friends mum died of Covid (late 50s ,healthy ) and she didn’t just give up.
Her body couldn’t fight anymore
You would think nearly dying would change a person for the better

Just been catching up on the news and damn, that's really really shitty for her and her whole family. I can't imagine what's going through Lee's mind right now, such a mixture of emotions, bless him.

As a doctor I just want to give my two cents. I think based on such little information given in that post it's very difficult to speculate the extent of her condition. Like many have said it does appear that she was conscious after giving birth and then put into a coma the following day. It's not uncommon for pregnant women to deteriorate like this straight after giving birth as so much changes with your body/stress levels/hormones, but with the addition of COVID, obesity (and other underlying health conditions that we have no idea about), it's not surprising they have put her into a medically induced coma to help her rest and recuperate. People can be put into a coma for a few days just because it makes things easier for the team to manage and monitor the condition, it's not always because they're on death's door so to speak.

Personally, I also don't think it's terrible for people to be mentioning her weight, as it is something that people have consistently talked about in this forum so it shouldn't change just because she's unwell when there is a small possibility of it being related. I guess it's just about being tactful with it.

Anyways, God bless her and her family. I'm so glad to hear the baby is okay and I wish her well!

I survived because I'm me... oh fuck off. How insulting to every hard working member of the NHS staff that worked tirelessly to keep her alive.

Sorry just need to have my two cents as I feel angry reading this now. People in India would do anything to have access to the vaccine right now. Refusing it because you think you know better than science is incredibly privileged and a decision that will greatly impact other people as all the unvaccinated idiots will give it a chance to continue spreading and mutating.


anyway... back to Grace... she really needs to log off today. Also cute how she boils someone down to an ‘Asian nurse’. why even mention that?

OH and ONE MORE THING ABOUT VACCINES. My mum didn’t give me the MMR vaccine when i was a baby because they said it gave you autism and guess what? I’m autistic, and now not vaccinated against measles, mumps or rubella. (Sometimes I hope to get rubella just so I can have the last laugh) Have any anti-vax conspiracies ever been right?
