PE1865/H - Suspend all surgical mesh and fixation devices

Thank you for taking the time to read this plea.

I am the family member of a mesh injured woman.

The pain and suffering she has to endure due to medical mesh devices is painful to witness. Entire families are suffering from the crimes against humanity that are being perpetrated on our loved ones. In my view, mesh is a completely useless and unnecessary device.

A native tissue repair could’ve resolved her urgencies. Instead she suffers from chronic pain, chronic infections, depression, loss of quality of life, her ability to work and self-confidence. I feel so strongly that medical mesh devices should be banned that I started a worldwide petition, The World Unites to Ban Mesh, on change.org.

Please be in solidarity with the mesh injured. They need our love, support and understanding and we need to protect future generations from the horrors of mesh.

The comment section of the petition includes many testimonies from the mesh injured, friends and family.
