Hello, I came upon this case about a year ago when it hit a major documentary on Netflix and the plaintiffs scored a $200 million verdict against a major FL children’s hospital. I think the verdict got it wrong. Opinions? Here’s an article:

In my opinion, this article also gets it wrong. In fact, most people get it wrong.

I think the mother endangered her with those treatments, that her mother has Munchausen by proxy and that the hospital’s order to shelter in place may in fact have saved Maya’s life.

Interesting, yes I can see why you would think that, a 5 day K Hole in Mexico does sound pretty dangerous.

The article says she was being maintained with low dose ketamine after that, then what happened? Did she run out of it?

Doh, I read the article and now can't watch the documentary. I would have to see the documentary to decide.

I would have to really understand if this was an extreme case because Florida is notorious for losing kids in the foster care system and mistreatment and the medical industry is in terrible shape. Both with a lot of the lousy younger personnel and what the American government has done to it.

Taking a young girl in physical pain from their parents better be justified and the jury and the court and appeal court agreed with the family. So I am already looking at the hospital sideways to begin with.

Well. What they are saying in the article to me seems like two things that I am not really sure of. Yet.

It seems to be saying that the mother could have been abusive. To Maya !

Or it is saying that getting ketamine treatments is just as bad. Or I should really word this as a question.

Is using ketamine really that bad ? And for a medical treatment as well ?

Wow. I have never heard of this. Good find ! Awesome.

I would have to read into it more to come up with a verdict or motive.

This is the first that I have heard anything about this.

But yeah seems like they are saying that ketamine is quite dangerous. Or that lady was. Maya's mom.

Lool. Omg how hideous. That's just awful. I would love to see an interview. Like with the dad. Or family too.

Kewl find.

And also what I get out of this so far is ... I hope ketamine isn't that dangerous. <3

holy sheesh.

The parents brought her to the hospital and the mom insisted on massive k doses. When doctors refused, they offered to transfer her to a hospital that specifically manages the condition in children which Maya’s mom claimed she had (CRPS). She refused the transfer and made fucked up statements about how she wanted Maya to come home so she could essentially die “be with the angels” or some such messed up statement. She had all the hallmarks of MBP and the hospital (a very well respected one) was literally just trying to make sure her mom didn’t kill her. Because CRPS (even if she actually has it, does not directly kill people). The ultimate discharge plan was for her to go home to her dad and brother, though it was stipulated the mom would not be allowed to live there. Then the mom killed herself.

She gaslit them all. And then gave the ketamine treatments a bad name as well. Everyone else's fault but her's. ( the mom )

And off'd herself to look like the ' good one. '

That is my initial though and feeling as my first impression. But, that however being said, I would have to investigate into this much more.

But so far the mother really caused a scene and got attention from the issue.

Also, she is ( was ) caught up in the ketamine controversy as well.

The mother seems kind of weird. She should have stayed alive to fight for her child. I would do that for my dog.

Sori. Thank you for letting me have a comment and being able to post this topic.

Wow. It's a weird one. I want to go try the coffee spilled on my crotch ... but it seems too scary. lool. I'm serious.

How, how do they get that to work so darn good. lool. I'm just too scared. I don't need scarred either.
 
Wow. I just watched a little bit of the law and crime interview. The hospital didn't really believe she was in pain.

Maya the real victim here was in tremendous pain and she didn't understand the entirety of it either. If the hospital

staff didn't understand how was a 10 , 13 yearish old supposed to.

Well at least they got some money out of it all. Like some big money. Even the lawyer said it should have been

a larger punitive amount. Anyway they cried to the bank and it worked. And rightfully so. The mother just needed to

clear her emotions and who knows what else was wrong with her or what she was going through. It is sad that

she ended her life.

However Maya overcame it all and adapted and the verdict was favorable. Real !
 
And Maya was really in pain ... and the mother took her own life as a suicide.

These two facts the exact facts that we do know are certain. And the rest is ....... documented.

History.

Very Nice. 👍
 
And you know the mother did have another child to look after and care for and a husband that she left behind.

But she threw a fit and off'd herself. I really shouldn't have worded it that way.

However, what was left of the family did run with it and ... did
a fantastic job.

The lawyer actually almost cried dollar signs and felt the punitive should have been more.
At first I had thought he was the father grieving badly and shedding tears.

I mean he did look a little on the older side but quite shaken. So I made sure to identify who he was and if he was in fact ... but nope not the father. ..... However just
the affluent law debating Lawyer, grieving his punitive tears.

That's it. It's over.

And the ket debate continues .... :unsure:

Hi can you tell me what this means lol
 
I think OP is referring to lawsuits against McDonald’s and more recently Starbucks, which have garnered millions for hot coffee burns.
 
Thanks SeekingOblivion I don't understand how I didn't see that I think I forgot how big the lawsuit was I was just like thinking about a million other things you know 😊
 
This whole story (and thread) has a lot going on, but I wanted to chime in briefly as somebody who spent 16 months living in a children's hospital as a young teenager. I was part of a clinical trial there using an enourmous dose of intraveous ketamine to put me out. I was freshly stapled up from an intestinal surgery and we suspected it was infected internally, so they wanted to take the staples out. I would only allow this under the condition that they shut my memory off effectively, and they IV'd 600mg of ketamine to me when I weighed 130 pounds. My memory turned on 3-4 days later. My mother has videos of me talking to Peter Griffin from Family Guy, describing a marching band of mice on a countertop in the room, a bunch of goofy ket shit. What's interesting about this though, is that I felt 0 depression for 3-6 months afterwards, and I was pretty generally depressed to begin with.

I just had a friend tell me ketamine creates new neural pathways I think and it helps with depression he's using the spravato nasal spray

I only used ketamine once unfortunately but I had a great time with it. I did a bump and then a big line of it and I went into a hole where I could feel what it feels like to split in half and become two things like a cell dividing

It was fuckin rad
