🚨URGENT appeal.🚨 Considering the urgency, and the lack of support from official bodies, I have been left with no option.💔 If you can help, even by sharing this appeal, I would be eternally grateful. I am begging for a chance to stay alive. 🙏 gofundme.com/f/help-diane-m…

Actions speak louder than words @DonnellyStephen You did nothing to help me access suitable care for Stage 5 Kidney Disease. "That's not my remit" was your response to my request for help. x.com/dianejmasterso…

Speaking of comfort....what could be nicer than piping hot soup when you want it?! 😋 If you drive for work, or have no access to an office microwave, you need one! Pop the food into the electric lunchbox, plug in, wait 10 mins. Hey presto, food you like, when you want it! 😍

You wouldn't help me when I'd begged for access to Peritoneal Dialysis to save my life. Instead I'm now an inpatient in 🏥, having much more expensive treatment that is not suitable to my needs. How could I trust @fiannafailparty not to leave me in 🏥 suffering? #GE2024

The magic lunch box strikes again...😍 Roast butternut & red pepper soup with added chicken for much needed protein. 😋💪🏻😋 The ultimate comfort food! 😁

DDiane Masterson@dianejmasterson · Nov 26

True friends don't question it when you ask them to bring chicken cooked with lots of garlic, blanched carrots & a bag of spinach when they visit you in 🏥! 🙊 15 mins in electric lunch box with a few tomatoes & a little spicy relish makes a very tasty, random dinner. 😋 🍽️ 😋

Even worse than the idea of being in 🏥 for Christmas, is the notion that I should go ⬇️ & try to access appropriate care in homeless services. How much suffering do they think I can take?💔 Do I accept treatment isn't working, leave 🏥 & give up?😢 #GeneralElection2024 #GE2024

4 months since this video...I'm no less heartbroken & it's worse when you're alone in 🏥. I'm now an in-patient, having temp hemodialysis which is really hard on my body. I feel worse than before admission.🤢 I know I can't do this much longer. It's cruel. 💔

DDiane Masterson@dianejmasterson · Aug 5

I debated posting this. The unexpected death of my sister, Wendy on Saturday makes me more determined to do everything I can to access care for Stage 5 Kidney Failure. I, my family & friends would be so grateful if you would share & help in any way. 🙏🏻 gofundme.com/f/help-diane-m…

This girl is in a horrible situation. She needed suitable accommodation to do home dialysis but the state wouldn’t help her - she fell between the cracks. Now she is having in-hospital care which is not suitable for her and they won’t release her until she has …

Outstanding? 🤯 Stephen Donnelly refused to engage when I asked for help to access urgent care at home. I'm 37, in 🏥 having unsuitable treatment just to keep me alive temporarily. I'm totally isolated now, with no hope of discharge without support. This is inhumane. #GE2024

Stephen Donnelly has been an outstanding Minister for Health, while also delivering for people locally in Wicklow. I’m urging you to give your No. 1 vote to Stephen tomorrow.

I BEGGED for help to access safe, appropriate care for Stage 5 CKD. I was dismissed like my life doesn't matter. 💔 I'm now having treatment as an in-patient in 🏥. This costs MULTIPLES of the treatment I need & is much harder on my body.🤦🏻‍♀️ Use your vote wisely. #GE2024

There's no Christmas magic here. I asked @fiannafailparty Ministers Donnelly & O'Brien for help to access Peritoneal Dialysis. They refused. Now I face Christmas as an in-patient, receiving care not suited to my needs. 🏥 Help me go home for Christmas 💔 x.com/dianejmasterso…

You, the Min for Health, said "it's not my remit" when I asked for help to access care for Stage 5 kidney disease. I'm now in 🏥 receiving a form of dialysis I'm not well enough for, until I can access Peritoneal Dialysis. Is bed blocking your remit?? x.com/dianejmasterso…

What about my future? 😐 I contacted multiple FG representatives, and not one of them helped me. I need help to access Peritoneal Dialysis, or I can't leave 🏥. Why would I vote for FG??? I'm 37 & have no hope of a future without proper treatment. x.com/dianejmasterso…

Magic blood cleaning machine 🤯 This is temporary life support. I hate every second, but without it, I'll die. It's very tough & lowers BP. My BP is already very low. 🤢 Several doctors warned Ministers that this is not the most appropriate care. They were ignored. ☹️ #GE2024

If you vote @FineGael @fiannafailparty & @greenparty_ie you're ignoring the suffering of many people with long term illnesses. Their ineptitude as policy makers, lack of empathy & unwillingness to engage is causing so much pain. 💔 Please vote for those of us who can't. #GE2024
