Legal aid for home owners

I worked in the NHS for 20 years and my husband owned his business. We worked all the hours god sends. I worked extra hours on-call evenings, weekends, missed bank holidays with my children even christmas's etc, caring for people in (emergency cardiac PTCI). Out intention was to secure our future and pay off our mortgage and so we did. A few years laters I started having depression but it was the beginning of Autoimmune disease Undifferentiated/sjogrens - Connective Tissue disease, Myasthenia Gravis, Hypo-thyroid, Dercums Disease, neurological incontinence and spondylitis.

I have have had an operation on my cervical spine and my Lumber spine which were successful.

But all the above illnesses were not taken seriously by the NHS trust of the county to which I live in. In other words years went by the hospital departments and GP's GASLIGHTED. I had to seek financial help from family help from abroad to get treatment. Cost me thousands. My whole family believe that we are victims of racial profiling - not me - educated people close to me, because the behaviour does not make sense. My mental health has declined so badly earlier this year I wanted to run away to London and claim asylum on the ground of medical care. Which sounds crazy but it is true. I need certain medicine I get regularly weekly and 6 monthly chemo infusion abroad but the hospitals have not arranged them for me in my local hospitals. They want me to go back begging and I won't. I dont trust them any more. I have asked to be transferred to 2 London hospitals which is my Right and both hospital have refused me. The first said you don't have any inflammatory disease - so my GP gave them false information on purpose. The second hospital to which I was expect to start my infusions within the next couple of months has left me without the weekly injection for the past 6 weeks - (which, fortunately- I have asked a friend to bring over from abroad) and the doctor has just told me to come over for the first appointment as a chat but he does not think it would be a good idea for me to to be patient there in the long term - surely that should be my decision. What about the infusion that I am already late for but was still prepared wait a couple of month for.

They are just taking the fun out of me. I am squirming and they are watching and enjoying it

I use a wheelchair, my husband had to sell his business years ago to look after me and pay off any debts and rest of the mortgage. He has hurt himself looking after me for years.

I want to sue these people but I am stuck because I can't get legal aid.

Years of working hard to buy this home for my children and now this house stops me getting support to fight these people who have done me harm and continue to do me harm. These hospitals and staff who have taken away my Human Right over and over and I am weak and completely helpless to do anything about it. They say that there is a fair Law out there - No - I don't think so - Unless someone can prove me wrong ?
