This page provides the true story about what has unfortunately happened to a retired person in relatively recent times. This information is provided so readers may become informed about certain things which may happen more often than people realize within the medical community which we are dealing with today. The information provided may also be helpful to any readers who may know of someone who is dealing with a similar type of situation. Furthermore, the story presented raises a number of important questions.

The story raises a number of important questions, especially when considering the particular person to which the things noted have been happening. This person provides a website to the general public which exposes a number of questionable and potentially treasonous things which have been happening to the United States and its citizens, over many decades. The noted website also tends to expose a particular group of people which appear to be working to enslave the citizens of the United States.

There is one thing to make clear to readers at the beginning of this presentation. Even though the noted retired person is an exposer of important pieces of historic information, plus is the exposer of potentially treasonous activities which have been occurring behind the scenes in the United States for many decades, it does not appear that the broken neck which they received happened under any type of suspicious circumstances. It truly does appear that a completely freak accident resulted in the broken neck.

In order to prevent any conspiracy theories from being formed about the actual breaking of the neck of the noted retired person, plus the breaking of the neck of this exposer of potentially treasonous and enslaving activities which have been happening within the United States for many decades, it does not appear that there was any foul play associated with the breaking of their neck. It is mainly the things which have happened after the broken neck occurred which need to be exposed and brought into question.

At this point, let us look at some very specific things which tend to reveal a somewhat disturbing picture of things which seem to be happening within the medical community, at least in certain areas. Unfortunately, a bit of research tends to indicate that disturbing things seem to be commonly occurring within the medical profession throughout an all-too-large portion of the United States. Possibly the general public should seriously be asking, "What is going on here? Can we blindly trust these people?"

As a result of the accident which caused the broken neck, the noted retired person, who became a hospital patient, has experienced numbness and also fiery burning, mostly in one of their arms. A certain finger associated with that particular arm has also been numb and rather stiff since the accident occurred which resulted in the broken neck. Once the patient was able to review the medical records associated with their broken neck, they began to find some disturbing discrepancies.

Beginning during their time in the Emergency Room of a particular hospital and continuing through their multiple-day stay at the hospital, the patient made something extremely clear. They held up the index finger of their mainly affected arm and stated to doctors, nurses and nurses assistants that this particular index finger has been numb and stiff since the accident occurred which resulted in their broken neck. Now it is time to note disturbing discrepancies found in the medical records about the numb finger.

Instead of the index finger being clearly noted as being the numb finger, one medical report stated that it was a "pinky finger" that was the numb one. Well, it should be noted that a pinky finger is not an index finger. But unfortunately, this part of the story does not end here. Another medical record associated with the broken neck affair declares that it is a middle finger which is the one that is numb. In this case also, a middle finger is not an index finger. And, there is still more to this bizarre story.

The former patient called the hospital and spoke with a number of different people. The patient told these hospital people that there were errors in the hospital reports regarding the finger in which the patient has experienced numbness. Well, the patient was told by various hospital people that they could not make changes in the reports. One person even went so far as to state that the error was likely the result of the electronic dictation system which was used by the doctor.

At this point, it should be noted that the patient, in earlier years, had been around things like voice activated CAD programs and speech-to-text software. Well, it would be very unusual for things like speech-to-text programs to translate "index finger" as being "pinky finger" or "middle finger." The word "index" does not sound anything like the words "pinky" or "middle." And now, as noted next, the medical group is talking about performing surgery on the patient's neck. Yes, the whole picture is looking kind of scary.

Almost one month after the accident occurred which broke their neck, the retired person, who is on Social Security and is using Medicare as their insurance, went to a follow-up appointment with a neurosurgeon in the hospital complex. At that time, the neurosurgeon had stand-up x-rays taken of the broken neck, which was actually broken at the base of the neck. The neurosurgeon then reviewed the x-rays in the presence of the noted retired person (the patient) and their witness.

At this point, it should be noted that an earlier hospital MRI of the damaged neck had shown that there is a disrupted, seriously stretched or torn ligament on the back of the patient's neck. This damaged ligament allowed a disk near the bottom of the neck to herniate out toward the rear and affect nerves in this area. This damage also created a potentially unstable condition at the base of the neck in the period of time after the accident. Now, back to the review of the neurosurgeon's new x-rays.

The neurosurgeon noted that the base of the patient's neck had shifted forward in relation to the portion of the spine below the damaged area. They noted a danger of continued forward shifting, and, continued forward shifting could negatively affect the spinal cord and potentially result in paralysis of the patient. Now, the patient has been able to walk perfectly normal, without any type of assistance, at the time of this follow-up appointment. But, damage to the spinal cord could result in life in a wheel chair or worse.

Now, there are some questions which should be asked. What allowed the base of the neck to shift forward in relation to the remainder of the spine below the damaged area? Is there anything which could have been done differently, which may have potentially prevented the forward shifting of the neck on top of the spine beneath it? It there anything which could have been done differently, which may have reduced or prevented any danger of spinal cord injury, plus may have allowed this broken and damaged neck to heal naturally?

When the ambulance crew came to the home of the retired person with the broken neck, after the accident, they fitted this person with a temporary neck brace for the trip to the Emergency Room at the hospital. While in the Emergency Room, after CT and MRI scans, this person was fitted with a more robust neck brace. During their multi-day stay in the hospital, this person (the patient) wore the same neck brace. No brace changes were made and no very key instructions were given about the used of the neck brace.

As the time of hospital discharge approached, the patient was told that they would receive a special "shower brace" for their neck, plus another robust, full-time brace and extra pads for the braces. They were also told that they would receive instruction on changing the braces. Well, on the day of discharge from the hospital, no instructions or demonstration about the changing or proper use of the neck braces had been given. The patient was simply sent out the door to a rehab facility, with a bag of braces and pads.

Now, there are some things to note. When the patient came into the hospital on the day of the accident which broke their neck and damaged the ligament and herniated the disk in the neck, the CT and MRI scans showed that things in the patient's neck were aligned so well that surgery was not required. But now, almost a month after the accident, the new x-rays taken in the neurosurgeon's office indicated that the patient's neck have shifted forward, out of alignment with the spine beneath the damaged area.

Well, there is something which should be said at this point. There is reason to suspect that if proper instructions and a demonstration had been given to the patient in the hospital, before the earlier discharge, on how to properly change the neck braces and how to properly adjust the braces for their particular neck injury, forward shifting of the base of the neck would possibly never have occurred. Now, at no point, even while in the hospital, was the brace tightened to the point of creating traction on the injured neck.

About half-way down in the page linked below is a section titled Benefits of Neck Traction. That section begins with the following words: "Neck traction is used in physical therapy settings, the emergency room, and sometimes at home. It is considered a non-invasive way to stabilize fractures or dislocations in the neck and spine." Yes, simple, inexpensive, non-invasive neck traction is commonly used to stabilize neck injuries. It is used to stabilize neck injuries like the type which the noted patient has experienced.

The page linked below states: "Cervical traction is a treatment for neck pain that involves lightly pulling on your head to create space between the bones in your neck (your cervical vertebrae). You might see it referred to as spinal traction." The page states further: "Cervical traction can be done either by your healthcare provider or by yourself at home. It can be done manually (by hand) or with a cervical traction device." Cervical traction could also be done with the proper tensioning of a robust neck brace.

The linked page goes on to state: "No matter how it's applied, cervical traction creates additional space between the vertebrae in your neck to reduce pressure and tension [or actually, compression]. It's used to relieve symptoms like pain from a variety of conditions and issues." Simple, inexpensive traction from a properly tensioned neck brace could have created space between the vertebrae of the retired patient's neck. This tension and support may have helped to prevent the base of their neck from shifting forward.

Looking further into the page linked below, it states: "Cervical traction is used to treat lots of conditions that cause neck and back pain. In addition to treating conditions that affect your vertebrae, it can treat issues with nerves and muscles around your spine, too." The page also notes: "Cervical traction can be used to treat temporary conditions, including...Fractured spine." Why was not a simple, inexpensive form of cervical traction used on the noted patient, to prevent the lower portion of their neck from shifting forward?

The page linked below states: "Traction of the spine, known as cervical traction, is a popular treatment for neck pain and related injuries. Essentially, cervical traction pulls your head away from your neck to create expansion and eliminate compression. It's considered to be an alternative treatment for neck pain, helping people avoid the need for medication or surgeries. It can be used as part of a physical therapy treatment or on your own at home." Yes, traction can be used to avoid the need for expensive, invasive surgery.

The linked page also states: "Cervical traction devices lightly stretch the neck to reduce pressure on the spine by pulling or separating the vertebrae. It's said to be both highly effective and fast-acting." The page shows that cervical traction is used "to treat and flatten bulging or herniated disks." The proper use of a type of cervical traction, even using a properly tensioned neck brace, could have helped to treat or flatten the retired patient's bulging or herniated disk in their neck, plus improved other problems.

The page linked below indicates that traction is used for "stretching and realigning the spine." It states: "Cervical traction is a common nonsurgical treatment for a herniated disc in the neck..." The page notes that traction is "useful for neck conditions." There is reason to suspect that proper patient instruction before discharge from the hospital, plus a properly tensioned neck brace, could have held the alignment of the retired patient's damaged neck, thereby eliminating any need for later, expensive and invasive surgery.

While in the hospital for their broken and damaged neck, it appears that the neck brace on the retired patient was adjusted simply to help reduce excessive movement of their head and neck. The adjustment of the neck brace did not appear to provide any form of alignment-holding traction on the patient's damaged neck. Then, upon patient discharge from the hospital, it appears that the neck brace was still only adjusted to help reduce excessive side to side, and forward and back movement, of the patient's head.

Now there is something very important to consider. Had proper instruction be given to the retired patient while they were in the hospital, and had the neck brace been properly tensioned to provide at least some form of alignment-holding traction on the retired patient's head and neck, there is reason to suspect that the situation with their neck about one month after their original neck injury would have been different than it has ended up being.

There is reason to suspect that if the neck brace on the retired patient had been properly tensioned to provide at least some form of cervical traction, the base of their neck may not have shifted forward in relation to the Thoracic (1)(2)(3) section of the spine beneath it. And again, the forward shifting of the base of the patient's neck was shown on the new x-rays which were done at the neurosurgeon's office almost one month after the neck-breaking accident.

In this section, there will be some very important questions to consider. Now, by what was shown on the original CT and MRI scans at the hospital, it appears that the retired patient's neck had been properly aligned with the Thoracic section of their spine when they were admitted to the Emergency Room of the hospital, after their accident. Based on what is shown in hospital records, it appears that the neurosurgery department felt that the cervical vertebrae were aligned well enough that surgery would not be required.

With the vertebrae in the patient's neck aligned properly with the Thoracic vertebrae below, when the patient was admitted to the Emergency Room of the hospital, why were not things done a bit differently? Why was the neck brace which was fitted to the patient not then tensioned to a certain degree in order to provide as least some form of alignment-holding traction to the patient's lower neck? Why was not something done to prevent the patient's lower neck from shifting forward, where the nerves could potentially be affected?

Why was the patient with the serious neck injury discharged from the hospital without being given proper instructions or a demonstration about using and changing neck braces? Why was not the patient given any instruction for providing at least a form of traction for their injured neck by keeping the neck brace snug and possibly even shimmed, if necessary, in order provide which may have been very important traction? It appears that a form of traction may have prevented the now stated need for surgery.

As long as people remain silent about questionable practices which may be happening in the medical field, things will remain as they are and many people will end up having more health problems than they originally started with. As long as people remain silent, harmful and costly problems being created by current medical practices will not be properly addressed, so the necessary changes can be made in order to improve the medical outcome for future patients.

It is time for an open discussion about all types of problems within the medical field to begin! Through a properly organized open discussion, beneficial solutions are more likely to be obtained for existing problems created by current medical practices or malpractices. Now, when it comes to just some of the serious medical malpractice in the United States, consider those things which are shown in the pages linked below. Let the open discussion now begin.

At this point, let us return to the retired person who was spoken about earlier in this presentation...the one who ended up with a broken neck and was advised by a neurosurgeon to have surgery on their neck. Once again, this retired person provides a website to the general public which exposes a number of questionable and potentially even treasonous things which it appears have commonly been happening for decades to the United States and its often clueless citizens, by those associated with a certain organization.

Now for the final questions. Considering all the information provided in this presentation, including the information about medical mistakes, what are the chances of the retired person coming out of neck surgery, basically back to normal, with no problems? On the other hand, what are the chances of the retired person dying, as a result of the neck surgery which they have been advised to go through? If the retired person were to die as a result of neck surgery, could there be more to the story than simply meets the eye?
