    Glad to hear it. I was very disappointed when I shared it on Facebook and literally no one even bothered to click the link. It takes 30 seconds at the most but everyone on my friends list were all too busy. I bet if I was Mr Popular everyone would have signed. Just goes to show that people only care about things that affect them in some way

    Signed. This is a clear breach of Claire's human rights. Keeping her away from her family is not going to help anyone, including her family, the staff at the unit she's being kept at and most importantly of all, Claire herself. I'm so angry at the fact that the government crashed the economy by giving the banks too much power and people like Claire have to pick up the pieces through endless cuts to the NHS. It's shameful.

    Hi Outraged,

    This sounds like a very difficult situation and we hope it gets resolved soon. Feel free to discuss the issue in this thread though we can't make it sticky unfortunately.

    Take care,

    Avi
