Wow, that has got to be one of the worst things, watching your child suffer and doing everything you can to get help and the system keeps you from it. I hope that you find a way, Magnumlady - my heart goes out to you and your son!

Hopefully the fact that the story is in the paper will help move things along.

Best wishes to all.

Bloody awful. I hope it all works out. Money before people again, capitalist bastards.

Thanks so much. You are all very kind.

We are still fighting....the powers that be will hopefully get so sick of me they might give in (we hope).

It is really awful seeing your child suffering and being powerless to do anything. A sure sign there aren't any elections due.

Thoughts and Prayers are with you all Val. Hopefully the publicity will bring about some legislative change.

Thanks guys, this is the Daily mails second article about Jono, they have helped most of the other kids they have written about, so fingers crossed.
