I had to call the hospital about 9:30 PM because I had not received a phone call at all about his status.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The nurse said she would check on his status and get back to me.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Kevin is the one who had called me from his cell phone.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>He had an oxygen mask on. (I checked his oxygen level earlier that morning and it was at 70%). He had told me they started him on Remdesivir.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I was not allowed to visit him because of the \u201cCovid\u201d. The next day he called me and said he then had pneumonia and he was very isolated.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">After the third day I didn\u2019t get anymore calls from Kevin. I started calling the hospital every morning and night to get updates. At one point they told me he was doing better. That was a lie.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">On January 27, five days later, one of the many doctors had called me to come in and see him as he wasn\u2019t doing well. The original Dr. Stevens saw him one time on the weekend and then was out of town for the next week. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">When I went in to see Kevin, he was completely naked on his side with the oxygen mask on. He was not gasping for air and just looked up at me and grabbed my arm and closed his eyes. I was hysterical. I couldn\u2019t get any answers from anyone as there was nobody in his room. Then they said I had to leave.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">That night I got a call from the nurse that told me <em>\u201cWe sedated him and put him on the ventilator so that his lungs could heal.\u201d<\/em> I told her <em>\u201cHe was not gasping for air today when I saw him and I know he would not want the ventilator!\u201d<\/em> It didn\u2019t matter what I said.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The next day on January 28, another Dr. called me and told me to come in and said <em>\u201cHe is taking a turn for the worst, and I don\u2019t think he will make it through the night.\u201d<\/em> I then go in to see him, and the Dr. told me that over night his kidneys had shut down, and he has a blood clot in his left groin. I looked at his left foot, and it was purple half way up his foot. The Dr. just left the room after stating, <em>\u201cThere is nothing we can do because he is so sick, that we can\u2019t treat the blood clot.\u201d<\/em><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Mind you, Kevin is a very strong and healthy man. This is not making any sense. The care was disgusting, the updates were not making any sense.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I couldn\u2019t get the Dr. to even come back into the room to talk to me. So I told the nurse, <em>\u201cI want him on HCQ which will help him get better.\u201d<\/em> He looked right at me and said, <em>\u201cThat has been replaced with Remdesivir.\u201d<\/em> I got up in his face and said, <em>\u201cThat is a damn lie and you are lying to my face.\u201d<\/em> I felt so helpless.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">That night they moved him to ICU. By Saturday February 6, he looked like he wasn\u2019t there by his eyes. Then Dr. Stevens and a nurse came into the lobby where a friend and I were waiting to see him. This is the first time I ever met Dr. Stevens. Everything that she said was so unprofessional and contradicting.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>She told us, <em>\u201cHe has had<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>8 or 9 strokes due to pieces of the clot that had traveled to his brain.\u201d<\/em> <em>\u201cWe just don\u2019t know when the strokes happened.\u201d<\/em> WHAT??? And that he is brain dead. We went into the room and I looked up on the screen with all of his medications and stats. I saw Fentanyl on the screen. I said, <em>\u201cIf he is so-called BRAIN DEAD, then why is he on a painkiller?\u201d \u201cAnd why Fentanyl?\u201d<\/em> The nurse said, <em>\u201cHe is not on it anymore, the screen just still says that he is.\u201d<\/em><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I am just like <em>\u201cWhat kind of an idiot do you think I am?\u201d<\/em> We get no answers, just a bunch of BS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">These worthless, incompetent excuses for Drs. Is amazing. I said, \u201cKnowing blood clots are a side effect from this and you did nothing for the first 5 days he was here!\u201d. \u201cWhat do you mean you don\u2019t know when the strokes happened?\u201d \u201cHe should have been on medication to prevent this.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I then get another call that night that he is not going to make it through the night AGAIN. I am so outraged by the time I got there, that I walked into his room and just cried and talked to him. I saw Dr. Stevens standing out by the nurse station who did not even come in to talk to me. I walked right up to her and I said, <em>\u201cYou are killing him and I will sue you for everything you got!\u201d<\/em> Then I left.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">She called the police, and said that I threatened her and she pressed charges against me. Now I am not allowed into the hospital again.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Kevin\u2019s kids were visiting with him, because by this time the hospital found out we were not married, so they told me that I no longer get to make any decisions and any updates would be told to his children. These kids aren\u2019t able to advocate for him and the hospital knew that. They didn\u2019t want me back in there because I was challenging them and interfering with their agenda.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So now I am at home, can\u2019t go see him and waiting to hear from his daughter which I have a good relationship with. This is the love of my life, and I have been stripped of all power to assist him.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">He did make it through the night but now had internal bleeding. I could not see him until a week later on February 13. I had to be searched by the police and led up to his room by 6 guards and 2 Drs. It was so ridiculous.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I could tell by looking at him, he was not going to make it much longer, because they were killing him. He never got any better when he was in there. He passed late that night on Valentine&#8217;s Day. He was in there a total of 23 days, and on a ventilator for 17 days.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This hospital is a for-profit hospital, they have an extremely high rate of death even before Covid. Nobody ever holds them accountable for anything. They put Kevin on the Remdesivir. The Fauci protocol. They wouldn\u2019t let me into see him until the fifth day, which is how long it takes to cause multi organ failure. This man fought even as they were killing him. They destroyed this man. Kevin did not want to go there, but the morning he did, he could not walk and his oxygen was at 70%. He told me to call 911 and we were both scared. Then he was COMPLETELY isolated for 5 days. I only saw him that one time for 5 minutes, then he was sedated and on the ventilator for the remainder of the time.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This hospital is the most disgusting excuse for medical care I have ever seen. They are murderers.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">His death certificate is horrific. Everything mentioned on it is what they caused.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Thank you for listening to this very personal testimony.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 It has been posted with the intention of preventing similar deaths which routinely occur only because of gross medical malpractice &#8230; and much worse.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_91165\" style=\"width: 343px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-91165\" class=\"wp-image-91165 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/0-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"333\" height=\"574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/0-4.jpg 333w, https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/0-4-174x300.jpg 174w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-91165\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kevin McCaan<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Profit over Ethics<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-91163","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91163","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=91163"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91163\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=91163"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=91163"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=91163"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
