"Doctors Don't Always Bury Their Mistakes"
documents my epic quest for healing. I followed
the advice of conventional physicians, podiatrists, orthopedists, neurologists, anesthesiologist/pain specialists, chiropractors and even an acupuncturist to no avail. What started out as a silly, klutzy accident—a bottle of salad dressing dropped on my foot, and was then compounded by stubbing a toe and breaking the same foot—became a decade of medical malpractice, financial tribulation, and a feeling of complete helplessness and hopelessness. What took seconds to do, literally took years to get past.
Doctors are supposed to be healing professionals, but what happens when they can't
heal you? If a mechanic fails to fix your car, you trade it in or junk it. But what do you do when a doctor is unsuccessful in healing your aches and pains and you become a medical experiment? In my case I was treated as if I carried the plague. I was labeled 'crazy' because of intense, unceasing chronic pain that, according to the professionals, had no cause. My questions were dismissed and eventually so was I as a patient, but only after I'd spent huge sums of money looking for answers that never appeared.
My husband and I exhausted our financial
resources and lost everything we worked so hard
to build. What I endured physically, mentally, and emotionally almost destroyed me, but because of the love of my wonderful family, I reclaimed my life and found my way home to normalcy. This book is the story of that incredible journey.
