This is why unless it's an er situation and I have NO OTHER CHOICE hell will freeze over before I willingly go into ANY hospital! Our neighbor is a nurse and tells us about all the laziness and complete disregard for rules that occurs! They are "warned" when inspectors are coming, so they never get caught! The aides leave people sitting in their feces and urine so she ends up cleaning them because she feels bad for them! If the hospital isn't making a ton off you then they'd rather you die sounds kike! Especially since they are also getting bad press! I agree with others...WHERE ARE THE LAWYERS THAT COULD STEP IN? Not like people wouldn't donate so he/she would get paid!

STAY OUT OF THE HOSPITAL! For sure!

WHAT?!?! The hospital is STILL mistreating her? WTF.

Does anyone know about the circumstances keeping her at that hospital rather than transferring elsewhere? Insurance issue?

Thank you so much for the update.

Steve Kirsch is funding her, and I am sure that Lona Linda is helping her qualify for MediCare or other insurance.

Thank you for that information! I mentioned "insurance issue" in my previous comment in terms of wondering if THAT'S the reason she's still at the same hospital. I can't for the life of me understand why she's still there (...not her fault, of course).

Is there some attorney, or even ACLJ or some group that can file emergency petition with the court to have her transferred to another hospital?! Or perhaps Cleveland Clinic? Can her family doc put in a referral to transfer her there? This is beyond awful! I will share again, and share on multiple pages on FB. Her family needs to sue this hospital!!!

All she needs is an accepting physician from another hospital. It's not hard.

Any diagnosis besides typical medical gaslighting? There is evil at play when she is being treated poorly by those who are well paid to take care of her. It is their job to ease her pain and suffering. Especially because they were the cause 😔.

You would think... but no one is doing pain management anymore, unless it's a spinal cord stimulator or some other surgical intervention (for $$$$$).

Omg. I had no idea 😣.

These hospital people are disgusting beyond what words can describe, and the expression "sub-human" is an insult to euphemisms.

To be clear, I'm referring to the ones consciously making those decisions, hospital administrators and the like.

No words. I just shake my head...

Amen Dr Margaret🙏🏻 I also pray for compassion from the hospital staff. No patient deserves to be denied pain medicine unless there is an allergic reaction and the doctor has to treat that and change to something different. I pray her skin graft goes well and she is healed quickly from there on out. I hope and pray HBOT IS MADE AVAILABLE TO HER. This will help the grafts take, and greatly enhance healing. I prayed this for her. Let Lexi feel our prayers. Thanks to the Lord for the gains she has made. Amen❤️‍🩹🙏🏻

I agree on the hyperbaric oxygen treatment. She must know about it by now... multiple people have told her.

One of the problems with having Lexi’s need for HBOT met could be that it’s off the table due to insurance rules. It’s next to impossible for an inpatient to get insurance authorization for treatment. Stupid government and insurance rules that make no sense. It’s so expensive. If she could be moved to a rehab facility she could get outpatient authorization. But in her delicate condition that wouldn’t be the ideal setting for ongoing care. LTAC I think would be appropriate. She would actually be better off at home with a home health wound care nurse. Maybe this can happen once she doesn’t require surgical debridement under anesthesia. If she had received HBOT prior to this, she would be much farther along and possibly be healed by now. Hard to say. Too bad she’s not in Florida.

Who is Alexa??? For those readers who don’t have the opportunity to read every single one of Dr. Aranda’s columns in a timely manner, it would help to put a brief summary at the beginning of every article about her instead of incorrectlt assuming that everyone knows the context.

Thanks. You can also search my articles for "Alexis".

So unfortunate no one at UCI advocated for hyperbaric oxygen for her.

Expand full comment

Agree. But they must know about it because it's plastered all over her social media platforms. Hope she adds this to her next cause.
