My medical journey
Dear Friends,
I woke up a few months ago and both legs look like an elephant. I went to my family doctor who immediately sent me to Good Samaritan Hospital, where they diagnosed me with a constricted aortic valve which was preventing blood flow.
I spent 6k out of pocket in the high end unit. because they had no regular rooms. There I received a stint in one blocked artery. The surgeon there then sent me to a rehab called Westgate which was a grotesque abomination run by overweight women from Haiti who abused me. I had a roommate who screamed all night long. Don’t go there folks. Then my son got me out of there and sent me to another rehab called Luxe. Ugh, not much better.
Next I was sent to a specialist in Palm Beach Gardens where it was discovered my pulmonary arteries were compromised. Had that surgery. Then finally, I received a new heart valve, made of cow tissue, Moo! I am now back in my 6K per month Assisted Living facility called Wellington Bay where I am recovering.
Amazingly the entire medical industry is run by Haitians who are here on Green Cards who have an attitude that is unbelievable. Doctors are decent, but underneath that the operation is C- (C-minus) here in Florida!
Even here, at this high end place, the helpers act like they are doing you a favor when you need assistance. Never been prejudiced in my life, but I sure am now.
Regardless, I would like to thank the many friends who have called wishing me well. I am waiting right now for a Haitian nurse to check my sugar as I am diabetic. She speaks broken English and Creole with some French as well.
I am hoping to survive this medical journey, which is very difficult.
That’s what is up with this patriot who will maintain my dissertations about the Conservative government we need to continue if our nation is to survive.
Blessings to all.
Sincerely yours,
