Hey, I don't like the Hispanics and other druggies and those who suck our health system dry but the video I saw shows there wasn't an employee at that hospital who should have a job and if there could be a resolution on a lousy hot cup of coffee from McDonalds, how the hell could anyone ignore this egregious insult that took the life of this lady who deserved by each one to be saved. They were all dead creeps who should be fired and damn right the hospital should be sued. Horrific and I'd be tearing their eyeballs out of each of their heads if that was my family member. And, I bet each of you reading this would too.

There's no charges, but how many of you want THOSE STAFF MEMBERS treating you? That's what I thought.

In my eyes, there was no excuse to let anyone suffer like that! We all I am sure have been in a ER waiting room at one time or another and know how druling it is to be in pain and have to wait as they take the patients on a level of critical status. I can understand that but the staff did not seem to take this women into consideration. Pictures don't lie. I would not want to be treated by any of that staff either. This is unaccepctable. I am sorry for the surviving family that has to deal with this and my heart goes out to the women that passed with no dignity!
