Do you actually think Rick Perry gives a shit about the welfare of young girls. Of course he got paid by whatever drug compamny gives him enough money. Money but run with it. These people are discusting. All they want is money. Wanna start a revolution with me? Wanna take these people down?
If you and I are so sick and tired of all the lies? Just like me. But you know what we could do
Let us all not work on a designatd day. All of us stay home. Boy if we did that then we could bring this country to its knees. Imagine bring this country to its knees, better listen to us but by staying in bed we could bring this country to its knees. Then they had better listen to us. -

We do we know the truth. And it was never the lies they told to us. How long will it take? How long will it take? For us to realise the truth?

We are dying out here.We are bancrupt
After Martin Luther King closed that night it was the total tsunami. We were swamped we had no place to put all these people. They were coming in so sick and so fast…
Overflowing we opened up places we do not usually place patients into, we used our holding areas, we used outpatient surgery areas just to try take care of them.
We scrambled for nurses at 5 am with no success. We called over 10 registries that night trying to get help, our people stayed over and they stayed over so many nights after that.
When the politicians of LA County closed Martin Luther King they put all of our hospitals in this region in dire circumstances and more importantly they put all the people living in. this region in real danger of not having any medical care.
Our ER was swamped, all our patients lined up on gurneys in the hallways, no place to put the sick. One medic who came back home said it was just like a mash unit. We called an internal triage that night no place, no place to put all these patients. We were bursting at the seams.
We shut down to all paramedic runs at midnight. Harbor UCLA closed at 0100 and thank God a hospital in Inglewood. St Francis weathered the storm…
We opened up ICU beds on the second floor just to take care of all the people. With no funds. Most of our patients have no insurance but still we treat them. We treat them all. How could we turn them away?
We never turn them away.Just trying to pick up the pieces for all the mess the politicians left behind.
Our hospitals are dying out here with all the politicians looking on.
If we do not come up with a better way then most of our patients who have no access to healthcare might die.
This is the reality of our healthcare system.
We are in crisis mode out here most nights. Most of our patients have no insurance. We have no money and neither do they.Now our hospital is bankrupt… Now what do we do? Never turn anyone away…
Never did. Never will.
We simply try to do the right thing…
And now as we try to scramble for enough money to keep this thing together.
Somebody has to help us.Maggie Hittinger RN.
