This page brings together eight years of public advocacy — from Westminster (2018) to the Romanian Parliament (2023–2025), from investigative press to national television, from the DIICOT criminal case to the definitive Court of Appeal ruling (2026). Each source documents a moment when one patient's private suffering became public institutional accountability. Materials are organised chronologically and by category: UK activism, parliamentary debates, tribunal and restitution, national and international press.
