It is appalling. This sort of medical mistreatment is far more common that most people are aware of. It impacted my entire family in such a way that it rippled out into a series of terrible events in addition to what my father was put through. One of the hardest for me was my mother blaming herself for years. I've never had much faith in the medical system. Once I went over all the medical documents, and investigated the drugs he was given (some of which they forced him to take against his will), my whole perception of medical care in this country changed permanently.
I am glad that he accepted your choices. You are doing pretty well.
I never gave him a choice, although I felt sad that I didn't have the same motivation to pursue music as I did art. I've only dabbled in music a bit. I'm content with where I am, so that's what matters.
Nine I am extremely so ti hear about the ripple effects the medical mistreatment caused. Oh my goodness I feel awful that your mom blamed herself for years. I know a family friend who experienced a medical mishap and it was the same case...the mom blamed herself.
This is appalling on too many levels. I can definitely understand why your perspective about the medical world has changed. It failed on many levels. I am proud of you to continue to keep pushing yourself in several creative endeavors.
Yes, none of it was fun. It was a very good learning experience though. I am acutely aware of what many go through now, aside from my own experience. Everything, day to day, offers many learning opportunities, so that is what I focus on.
Definitely pushing myself creatively 🤣, thank you.
