Million March Against Child Abuse MACA 08.07.2021

It's been one and 1/2 years since I was fished out of my pool that I nearly drowned in from a vasovagal reactions. I had also lost the use of both my legs. I convulsed for 1/2 hour before help arrived. I was brought the hospital as a near drowning w seizures. I had gone into my 6th month of recovery when a bad mix of a new medication landed me in the hospital again. I was misdiagnosed and given the wrong medication. I had my 3rd mini stroke there and more convulsions. I broke... out of there after 12 hours of torture. The next day, I had forgotten to take the pill out of my already counted out regular pills. I was unable to get my finger down my throat, as I was attempting to bring it back up. The front of my throat has a crush injury when I was attacked at 17. I have been choking every since. Back to the hospital my husband brought me, a different hospital. My husband and son are both EMTs because of me. At that hospital once again I was misdiagnosed and given seizure medicine, which induced 3 weeks of seizures, one of the side effects. The neurologist came to me in the mornings. I was told I was having those vasovagal reactions all through the night for up to 30 minutes at a time. On top of that, the room was not handicapped accessible, no bars to get up w, no nothing I needed. When I attempted to get to the window vent from their non handicapped bathroom, I hit the front of my head between the window columns and it bounced me backwards and I fell on the back of my head, which was crushed. After 4 days I broke out once again, to save my own life. I had every test a neurologist could think to give me....the cognitive 5 hour test I failed miserably. For the first time in my life I was told not to expect too much recovery, because there was just so much damage to my brain at the hospital, from the 2 story fall, all the times I lost oxygen choking and my 3 trips to heaven. It's been 1 year now that I have been fighting to regain what I lost. Nothing much has come back. I can neither dial a phone nor turn on the TV. I had hoped to pick up where I left off w MACA, but without my brain power, I am no closer to being able to put this event together. All that I can do is to continue w what I started w my signs. I am so sorry to have to let this part of my life go, but I can't do anything to fix what happened to me See more
