The only reason I went to the hospital was because I knew I had pneumonia. I have asthma and was in respiratory distress. When I arrived at the hospital, I was rushed away without my consent. At the hospital I was tested for Covid 4 times. The first 3 were negative. Then on the 5th day they got a positive Covid Test.

During the time I was hospitalized they isolated me and told me that I was going to die. They told me that I did it to my self and they had no sorrow for me. After I refused the remdesivir, the Dr was even more angry. I called my husband and told him they were trying to kill me. They told my husband that I would die if I did not go on a ventilator. Once I was put on a ventilator, my family was told I would never come off or wake up.

I was often left laying in my own waste and developed bed sores. They denied me water or ice. I remember begging for ice. Only one nurse, named Jordan, would bring me some. She would encourage me and say things like, “we got this” and “I’m going to help you”. Jordan was the only person who did try to take good care of me.  On Jan 8 2022, I was transported to another hospital in Richmond VA named Vibro. The treatment was even worse at that hospital. I told them the beginning of February that if I was not released I would sign my self out and I made them release me.  I came home February 8 2022 and they fought me every step of the way. I’m still scared to be alone and my anxiety is high.
