Thank you to the mods for starting this thread!
I wondered whether anyone else had been following this lady and her story?
To give a brief timeline:
This lady, Jade has Huntingdon’s Disease which is terminal. Among other co-morbidities that come with Huntingtons she has early onset Alzheimer’s and I believe she stated she was partially deaf.
Living in Ireland, Jade rents out the upstairs of her house via Airbnb. The upstairs consists of a large bedroom and bathroom. She charges only about €20 per person per night but reviews on her Airbnb and photos show it as being clean, tidy and bright and almost every review is 5*.
In July 2022, Jade had some guests arrive who refused to ring the doorbell because they saw it was an “accessible doorbell” - the doorbell in question looks the same as any other doorbell but had a small notice underneath saying “Please ring the doorbell instead of knocking, I am disabled so please be patient” or something to that effect. The reason being is the doorbell is connected to a gadget she always has with her that lights up and vibrates when the bell is rang so she is able to hear it.
On arrival the guests were very rude to her, implying they did not want to catch the disability, that they were uncomfortable around disabled people, called her slurs and the husband implied that disabled people are stupid.
Scared, she stayed in her kitchen and contacted Airbnb to see if they could make alternative arrangements for the guests but they were unable to and instead Airbnb told her to just “stay out of their way.” In her own house.
The guests then accused her of everything from the kettle to the toilet as being a disability aid.
Airbnb then contacted her asking her when she expected her disability to be “resolved” - which given her terminal Diagnoses was obtuse at best.
This saga continued after the guests had left. Lots of to and fro strange conversations from Airbnb. They asked for a list of disability aids in her home (including everything she’d bought - such as towels etc, because if a disabled person buys them apparently they are disability aids) and she ended up having to get legal advice.
In September the guest made the decision to sue her for the life long therapy they will need for spending less than 48 hours in a disabled persons home. This therapy includes 40 hours of reiki therapy per month, multiple yoga retreats and massage. For all the therapy they have said they need, they would be doing approximately 40 hours a week of therapy for at least the next 2 years (the equivalent of a full time job!)
As of a couple of days ago, Airbnb have asked her to show them HOW SHE SHOWERS in order to build a picture of how disabled she is. The saga continues. She has done a lot of videos on it and it gets even more insane if you watch them all.
images attached of the guests review and her response (anonymised) (also I missed some
Of it and the review appears to have now been taken down)
I really like her, she said she thinks a lobbyist group have picked up the 'guests' legal stuff any ideas on who'd they'd be?
I wondered that too, I’ve been doing some searching but it’s hard to find much at all. The only thing I’ve managed to find out is the name of one of the guests and their nationality but haven’t seen anything else from their side. Continuing to sleuth.
One more edit: I should probably add there is now a petition. I’m not sure I am allowed to link it but if you search “change
Help me show a Judge that disabled people aren't scary” it will likely come up on google. 
I can’t believe how many people fall for things without questioning them at all. Guess very few people remember the terminal illness lady from Live Journal who also turned out to be a massive fake (to the extent she posted as her “daughter” after she “died”). 
shes offering refunds too though which is good so guessing shes not fufilling orders
I wonder if he received a poorly written cease and desist
