Real Life Angel - Next Installment of Medical and Police Corruption

I previously wrote about the absurdity and disgusting nature with which a doctor, who had claimed to be the answer to our prayers for my husband's life, was trying to scare us out of holding him responsible for lying, breaking doctor/patient confidentiality, and whose office told us that my husband's life is not worth saving.  (You can read more about that here)

But since I wrote that portion there have been updates.  First, as far as my husband's health goes, the stress of this whole situation has made it so that any progress he had made while in the hospital after almost dying following a stroke and the consequential effects, have completely regressed.  Now, the prosecutor in the county where the offending doctor works is pressing charges upon myself and my husband.  The officer who had taken the complaint, who neither confirmed nor denied when I asked him if he knew the doctor personally, but remained silent, which he did each time he was asked this question once told that the call was being recorded, called us up just to tell us that the prosecutor had intended to pursue charges.

Let me start by saying first, that these people all work together, they see each other on an almost daily basis, and in a three day time managed to pursue and push through charges of Malicious Telephone use?  Second, I will not, and will never apologize for being upset when a doctor's office who, in writing, took on the responsibility of my husband's life after almost dying after a 4th stroke at the age of 40.  We are not an elderly couple who have lived a full life and now are at the point where these things are natural occurrences of life, something is seriously amiss with my husband's health, and it has been taken as a joke by the medical community for years, resulting in this heinous, and horrific journey that he has been on.  Thirdly, any doctor who is willing to break doctor/patient confidentiality in order to scare, harass, and attempt to bully a former patient out of filing a medical malpractice lawsuit has more to hide than just sending a patient on their way to die.  Fourthly, the prosecutor in question does not even have the authority to pursue these charges as the phone call that supposedly was so offensive was not even made to the county within which these charges are being filed.  Therefore, this is all completely a waste of time and an attempt on my husband's life, as we have it recorded the doctor saying that without immediate medical attention my husband will not live.  This doctor even went as far as recommending us to go to the ER immediately, saying that he would call ahead and let them know exactly what was going on, and his recommendations (which he did not do, and according to the hospital, has never done for any patient in the 13 years that that administrator had worked there.)

I have spoken to several medical professionals who have expressed to me their personal opinion that this doctor should not be practicing for reasons such as these, those who would speak at all.

This is not the first time we have gone up against a doctor that has been vindictive, it is not the first time that a doctor's office has fucked with us (Do you fear for your life now because I dropped the F-bomb?) it is, however, the first time that a doctor has had the nerve to proceed to attempt to have the law pursue us while breaking several laws.

Did you know that when doctor's get physically assaulted by a patient, most of the times they don't report it? Do you know why? It is because it would be breaking the law to report it.

In this case, however, the doctor in question has not seen either myself or my husband in person before; we have never physically been to their office, and we have only spoken on the phone, not to mention that my husband is terminally ill.  So how can an alleged phone call cause a doctor to fear for his life?  Either he is literally the biggest pansy on the face of the planet, or he is a liar.  We have seen first hand that he is a liar.  A liar who has no integrity; a liar who has no dignity or compassion or heart, and in this case one who has been given a license to dispense medication at will as not only a medical doctor, but also a pharmacy.

But all of this is just semantics and doesn't truly matter. What matters to me is that as a result of all of this bullsh*t is that my husband is lying at home dying without the proper medical care that he needs.  Joshua is only 40 years old. 40! You can't capitalize numbers, but if I could I would. In what world is a 40 year old, not to mention his numerous talents and gifts, being left to die at home when simple medical care could be the difference between a full life and this half assed one.

Pardon my language in this post, to all of those who have been reading faithfully.  But I don't understand.  I don't understand why this is happening and I don't understand why it is happening to my husband.  No man is more deserving, and not that I'm saying anyone deserves to be sick or to suffer because no one does, but no man is more deserving of compassion, or love, or empathy because no man has ever given more compassion, no man has given more love, no man has given more empathy than my husband.

We aren't 80 years old having lived a full life and are going through what happens with old age, we are a young couple who just want a chance to live the life that is there.  It is there simply in good health.  When has health been a gift that you have to ask for, to turn to people for? Since when, in 2015, in the United States of America has health been something you had to fight tooth and nail, and risk everything including your freedom to obtain?  Why?

With all of the new legislation that has been passing this week, there has been a lot of talk about national healthcare, Obamacare, and how there should be preventative care, but how about people who have been dropkicked down into the gutter, even having good health insurance?  There is not a single thing on the list of "what to do when you get sick" that my husband has not done.  We have been through the list a dozen times, just since I've known him.  So what?  WHAT?  What are we supposed to do now?

Now that hope has been taken away yet again.  I don't understand it at all.
