Someone help

Good day, i was told i need to fast at 10Pm last night for an early morning procedure.

I was told that i am fourth in the list for admission to theater for surgery and that i would wait 2 hours maximum.

I have been here, i have been starved for 15 hours. It is 12:30PM and i was told to be here to later than 6 AM for admission. I have been admitted at 6:15 AM and am still waiting 6 and ½ hours for my surgery.

I have an Iron, vitamin D and vitamin B deficiency and i have terribke ulcer problems. The fact that i was not notified properly and wasn't allowed to eat this morning knowing that there was not 4 people, but 8 or 9 people in front of me.

I have passed out and came to, yet the doctor hasn't seen me or arranged for me to do the operation on another day.

I find this cruel and unfair and i need to know where to ask my lawyer to get in contact with your legal team as this could cause serious issues and this wouldn't be the first time that the negligence of the employees at this institution have caused injury or death due to negligence and i feel Kik this is a Civil matter instead of a personal matter because this hospital is linked to so many deaths yet no compensation was ever made nor was there any repremand

Bare in mind the fact that my grandmothers death was caused by the fact that nurses didn't make sure her Dialysis need entry was properly clotted. Instead, it was pulled out, plastered with a band aid and sent home.

When we got home we saw that the car seat was soaked in blood, the cup holders filled with blood, my poor diabetic grandmother was neglected as usual and suffered a fatal heart attack and stroke due to the lack of blood in her system. The paramedics tried resuscitation for over 30 minutes, took her to the hospital, tried for another 30 minutes and she was declared dead at the hospital only after the ambulance drained the last of the money out of us.

This cannot keep going unheard and left alone. Lenmed should hold themselves responsible for such instances especially if it has resulted in the death of a human being.

Patients are just seen as things to fix and send home instead of ever being treated with the importance that is guaranteed at a private hospital.

I am highly disappointed at my family for not raising a suit against this institute even though a life was lost.

Someone please do something because there are hundreds of people who just Lee quiet and are never given the justice they deserve for family members lost due to pure negligence and not natural unforseen circumstance.
