I begged for over an hour for help and no one heard my cry
On January 9, 2023 I was near the point of death. I always thought very highly of the service that Columbia St. Mary's hospital provides but this day would turn out to be the worst day of my life. As I entered the lobby, I was throwing up and so sick I could hardly stand up. It felt as though someone was cutting the insides of my stomach, they took my name and signed me in and said have a seat. I was in so much pain that I couldn't stay seated the pain was so intense, I begged over an hour "please help me anybody. No one took my blood pressure, I never saw a triage nurse anywhere, no one took my vitals. I continued to beg "Please help me I'm dying" no one helped me. Finally I asked my husband to take me to St. Joseph hospital because I knew I would not last too much longer, I was dying and I knew it. When I arrived at St. Joseph they immediately did blood work and a CT scan with contrast, and they said Selena, We have to do surgery right this minute, right now. After the surgery I was admitted to the hospital for 6 days filled with pain. I cried day and night thinking of the horrible experience that I had at Columbia St. Mary's hospital. It was a terrifying experience for me please believe me. I wouldn't have treated a dog the way that they treated me their. It was unhuman and they never even said I'm sorry. As I laid at St. Joseph hospital recovery from this major surgery, I thought to myself what if I had fell dead while I was crying and begging for help in the E.R of Columbia St. Mary's hospital, it would have been so devastating that it would have made headlines all over the world. Because I begged for over an hour for help and no one heard my cry. That would of been a horrible way to died. But because God allowed me to live and seek help at St. Joseph hospital, nothing can be done or said about the encounter that I experience at Columbia St. Mary, wow what a cruel world we live in. I thank God every day that he heard my cry and gave me help with the staff at St. Joseph hospital. It is my prayer that no one in this world will ever have to go through the nightmare that I went though. Amen
