Listen "Allison Hothoff: This could have been me"
Episode Synopsis
Amy Graves has been dealing with health issues over the past year. She’s still recovering from an aneurysm and has permanently lost the sight in one of her eyes. The recent story of Allison Holthoff’s death in an emergency room had Amy wondering how close she came to a similar fate. In October, she ended up in an emergency room in extreme pain from an internal bleed. And although she was examined, they wanted her to go home and come back later if things got worse because they didn’t have a bed for her. Eventually she was given a diagnosis that prompted them to admit her and she was treated. She says the staff did everything they could to keep a broken system working but she can absolutely understand why some life-threatening conditions are being overlooked.
