Guest guest Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Understand your fury Les. You should have seen my face when we got a copy after agreeing to The Sun (!!!!!) doing an article about to raise awareness of Sense. I had had my misgivings about doing it with that esteemed (?) high quality paper (ha ha!) but thought that Sense have done so much for us they deserve our support. Well, I don't think many of us would have recognised the definition of CHARGE that went out and the things I was supposed to have said were amazing. I was so glad most people I know recognised that the quotes could not have come from me. BUT there was the cutest picture of our little pumpkin with her school bookbag striding down the road swinging the bag for all the additional sensory input she was worth. Sense were happy they got a mention and their details were published, we were happy CHARGE was mentioned, school were happy to have a large picture of one of their school bags with their name and logo clearly emblazoned and a very happy to be going to school child etc. However, it certainly made me aware of the fact that the publications are only interested in the dramatic effect of the stories, not the accurate representation. I would still probably do it again but with much more caution and awareness. I had even asked them not to use my name because of the job I do and of course they assured me they would not but of course they did. Actually, I did agree to a very little article (Sense again!!) in Woman's Own or something last year and that was OK. Guess we can only try to take the positives out of these experiences. How is little Amelie by the way? Any news?

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Flo I did not know you had done an article on charge, so you will know why I am in hiding!! I managed to stay off the picture, but why my age etc needed to go in I will never know, she has even identified my address its not difficult to know where we are its a small place!! oh well like you we live and learn, my brother is chuffed he said its good PR for his August fun day...some proceeds will come to charge so I shouldnt complain!! Amelie is very well, until we get an H.A.I. !!! surgery is 21st May although they are trying for sooner now they wont let her home at night, so its could be sooner, they couldnt find the ENT today to inform him, as he discharged us yesterday then the respiratory consultant dragged us back in!! hope you are all well...Les x > Understand your fury Les.
