I as a parent who has lost a child through medical misdiagnosis/negligence hereby demand a law to be introduced forcing all medics of all ranks to listen and take action where necessary on the concerns voiced by the parents. No amount of training, degrees or letters behind a medics name overrides the instincts of a mother. A mother’s natural instincts must be listened to this will save lives of children dying needlessly of misdiagnosis/negligence. Had I been listened to and not just heard it is extremely and highly likely that my daughter would have survived. When a parent continuously takes their child to hospital with the same symptoms it is necessary and vital for medics not to dismiss but to take notice, Mother’s Know their Child Best.

Because this can save children's lives. Our children have the Right to Life. Just because they are too young, do not understand the questions properly appear happy it does not mean they are not ill.
Medics MUST take on board and LISTEN not just HEAR the concerns of a mother / parent.
My daughter died because she was a happy little girl, did not like complaining, was full of smiles AND THAT IS WRONG. If I had have been listened to correctly and actions taken place that I had stated the percentage is high, they would have found the cause and taken appropriate action and MY DAUGHTER would still be here today, happy, smiling and not complaining. 100,000 UK signatures needed to go to Parliament.
