Mom Of Woman ‘Dumped’ From Hospital Is Outraged, Says Daughter Is Bi-Polar & Autistic
A week after news hit that a woman in a Maryland hospital was dumped by security guards in the freezing cold, her mother is GOING IN about how her baby girl was treated.
She also wanted to set the record straight about who her child is and what she's actually suffering from.
“There are people who are saying that my daughter [Rebecca] is a drug addict, my daughter’s a prostitute, that she’s deaf,” Cheryl, who only wanted to use her first name, recently told CBS News.
“She’s not deaf, not a prostitute, not a drug addict. My daughter has mental illness.”
Cheryl added, “My daughter was disposed of. She literally was disposed of. It’s disgusting, heartbreaking, horrifying. And if it’s all of those things for me, I want people to know how does Rebecca feel? This was done to her. She was on the street with her body exposed. There was no human dignity at all.”
NONE WHATSOEVER!!!
The young woman's mama also told CBS that her daughter suffers from bipolar disorder and a mild form of autism. Apparently, ever since Rebecca turned 18 last month, she had been living in a group home, but was kicked out for not taking her meds.
She was brought to the hospital shortly after.
At first, Cheryl didn't even know where her daughter was! She filed a missing person's report and was finally told that her daughter was in the hospital. BUT YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S EVEN MORE MESSED UP?
Like most of us, Cheryl had heard the news that a woman was kicked out of the University of Maryland Medical Center, but never thought it was about her own daughter!!! When she clicked on the story and saw Rebecca's face she was horrified!!!
“I didn’t even know that it was my daughter initially,” she admitted. “As he got close enough, I saw it was her and I got hysterical because in that moment, it was sheer fear that my daughter was going to die. I still haven’t watched all of the video.”
When she called the hospital, she says she was treated like crap. “The hospital wasn’t being helpful. I called the security department (and) they laughed at me. When I told them, ‘That’s my daughter in the video and I just need to find out if she’s in the hospital,’ they laughed at me,” Cheryl said.
“Every person that I talked to at the hospital either hung up on me or told me to email the hospital, and that everyone was going to tell me the same thing.”
WHAT A MESS!!! YOU CANNOT GO AROUND TREATING FOLKS LIKE THIS!!
