    It sucks that Myrtle passed as a direct result of her purse being stolen and not having access to her medication. But for that to happen in an ER is also sad

    I'm so sad for Myrtle Brown's family. An administrative issue prevented anyone from finding her for all that time? Especially when they'd called looking for her so soon after she'd gone missing? I can't help but imagine being her daughter and living with the nagging thought that she may have been abandoned, but not knowing why or how she might have stopped it. I'm angry on this family's behalf.

      @S T R A N D C A S T that's what's sad; it was said that she'd given her name, but hadn't been fully checked in. I remember the 1980s, and often, at hospitals, there was a big reception desk where you checked in with your name. They had you take a seat, then someone would call you to the check-in desk - for your information like telephone number, DOB, social security number, allergies, etc. - and then you'd sit back down in the waiting area, and wait for triage, where they'd call you to take vitals and find out why you're there. I suspect this hospital was like that, since her name was associated with the paperwork from that day, but not necessarily associated with Myrtle. That means that she was there waiting long enough for her name to be forgotten when she seized and died. How sad.

    • @KAlovesherkitties
      @KAlovesherkitties Рік тому +5

      She died in the waiting room. If you’re just going into the ER and register, all you’d typically give is a name, dob, and why you’re there. If she had a seizure before all of her paperwork was submitted (or if she wasn’t given any just yet) it’s understandable why they wouldn’t have where she was from. I’d say if a family was searching, they went to that hospital and give just that information, that should’ve been enough. Some hospitals just suck at caring about anyone once they’re treated or in a body bag.

    the first update really made me think about how we ignore or minimize what a young person might be feeling and decisions that can be made in that moment that can change your life forever. sad that either she was so angry at the dysfunctional relationship with her father or she felt that nobody cared or too much time had gone by why even bother they'd probably just be mad at ne now! they all missed all those years with her growing up...meeting a husband...having a family including grandchildren!! It's so sad :(( we need to remember to communicate, to love and respect one another...a next moment is never a guarantee...life is precious!!
    it was nice to see her at the other end of the update having lived a full life as opposed to being found deceased and unidentified somewhere.

    Myrtle’s case is sad on so many levels. Even in 2022, the U.S. “healthcare” industry treats black folks as subhuman due to a complete lack of empathy (so glad I left). How does a woman suffer a seizure right in the hospital and still gets no help?
    I hope the person who stole her purse died horribly. At least as horribly as the poor woman they kìlled in their selfishness! Thieves think of no one but themselves (and likely a fix). If it was a drüggie who stole her purse, it’d be ironic that they took medicine to save her life to put poison in themselves.

      I agree to an extent. I also have a friend who disappeared from a DV situation with her children. She phoned her mother to let her know she got away safely and the city she in which she was living. Her ex partner beat her mother for the information and she ended up having a heart attack and dying. The partner tracked my friend down a year and a half later and stabbed her to death in front of her house when she left to take her children to school. Sometimes it's just safer to completely vanish.
