What is #MECFS?
Do you have it?
There are main 3 diagnostic systems for diagnosing #MECFS - they differ in the details but Fatigue + "Exertion Intolerance" or "Post-exertional neuroimmune exhaustion" or "PEM" is the central concept. 1/n
Exactly my point. I’m so frustrated- single mums hv every right to passports for their kids. My kid needs a passport to travel with me and looks like we’ll hv to wait till he’s 18 to apply as an adult. @passportsevamea@DrSJaishankar@PMOIndia
Why do #singlemothers have to go through such torture? What kind of cynical rules & age-old patriarchal norms treat #mothers as criminals! Mothers do not need anyone else's permission to take their children with them. This is a clear message that should go out. @DrSJaishankar
@Prakash29968182 They give different reasons each time and I do what they ask. Next time it’s something else plus more money. Latest they’re disputing my perfectly legal divorce deed.
@passportsevamea please help a single mom get a passport for her son after 1.5 years of requesting, mailing, trying, all papers accurate. I don’t have the money to bribe officials to do something that is my right by law.
The father has no involvement in our lives, doesn’t financially support my son even for education and yet my custody is not enough. The #law maybe in my favour but #corruptpassportofficials continue to hassle single mothers
All papers of divorce and custody in place and resent over email twice. Now I’m being asked to provide my ex husband’s residence proof and an email by him requesting renewal PLUS 70 K Rs.
