What a horrible week!
I had to go to the funeral of an 18 year old on Monday who died of complications with a blood clot. 18!
AQ was rushed to the ER about 2 weeks ago complaining of chest pain. The docs said it was bronchitis and sent her home with some antibiotics. She had to go back to the ER but was shuffled out. The paramedics were called to the home twice. In my opinion the medical staff fucked this poor girl over due to lack of insurance.
AQ had starting taking birth control pills in February. These pills caused a blood clot in her reproductive system. The blood clot eventually moved up to her lungs (thus how the docs came up with bronchitis) which ultimately killed her.
Had the doctors and medics be a bit more thorough, this college student would be here today. However, due to the fact she had no insurance, she was not provided with the optimal health care which subsequently claimed her life.
Absolutely fucking horrible. AQ's mom used to be a client of mine, back when I was employed. My thoughts and prayers go out to mom, GQ.
