Sophia Mirza

Some time ago I wrote in outrage and despair at the terrible and unnecessary death of Sophia Mirza. After she died, her spine was sent away for special post mortem examination by neurologists, and it was found to be severely inflamed. Her mother and sister put a website together that documents the medical torture they were put through and it is painful and uncomfortable reading. Sophia became the first person in the UK to have ME listed as Cause of Death on her death certificate. What they went through is frightening, appalling and disgraceful. This young woman and her iatrogenic death must mot be forgotten.

This is the website http://sophiaandme.org.uk/

Her mum, Criona Wilson, has a short, factual and unemotional interview on youtube.
