Dr. Jeanette welcomes Gloria J. Yorke, author of MEDICAL MANSLAUGHTER: Will Your Doctor Cause YOUR DEATH? to talk about her experience while caring for her husband. Gloria was the advocate for her husband and even though she spoke up and called out the treatments he was receiving, he still had medical complications that could have been avoided. It all started with a sleeping pill in the hospital that was to never have been given to him. Healthcare is to support us in a crisis but what happens when the path goes awry? Who is right in our personal healthcare services; the doctor, the patient or the caregivers? Who is wrong when problems arise; the doctor, the patient or the caregivers? Do you just drop off your loved ones and let the system take care of them and not ask questions? Is caregiving just too much for you to handle and wish to push it off to nursing homes, hospice or hospital care for your loved ones? Who is your advocate when you cannot speak, have been given medications that alter your consciousness or can see and sense things might not be right when you are just focused on being present or out of pain? Who is your advocate? Do you have an advocate? Perhaps you can find one to just ask questions, receive some guidance or have around as a second pair of eyes.

“You might read it as a novel, and think it could never happen to you. But think again! I urge you to read this book with an open mind and an open heart. Although entertaining, it provides a valuable, deep-rooted education. This is one of those rare books that will stir an awakening in you!” --Joe Vitale, Best-Selling Author of Over 50 Books, Doctorate in Metaphysics, Appeared in the Movie, The Secret Sometimes it takes a novel to get us to understand the deeper, more important truths about life and death -- especially when it involves love, miracles, and one woman’s powerful desire to find meaning in a world, turned upside down by the loss of her husband. Medical Manslaughter, by widow, Gloria J. Yorke, is such a book! Based on her true, but incredible life and journey, Gloria’s story also explores selfless caregiving for her husband, his recovery against all odds, gross medical malpractice, and medical record cover-ups. Gloria, 25 years younger than her husband, lost him nearly six years ago. He was a Chicago legend, entertainer, singer, and virtuoso of the tenor sax who opened shows for many of the greatest entertainers in history….the original Rat Pack—Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. – and Tony Bennett, Johnny Cash, Wayne Newton, Mel Torme, Phyllis Diller….the list is almost endless. 2 Early one morning in July 2012, Gloria’s husband collapsed at his home, and was rushed to the closest local hospital. Tests proved he had blood on all sides, and inside his brain. It was recommended that he be immediately transferred to a larger hospital that had its own neurological department. Upon doing so, he was placed in ICU. After three days there, and starting to show signs of slight recovery, they moved him to a regular floor for rehab. Was expected to go home in three days! It was here that the doctor assigned to him made a crucial medical error that began the end of his life. This medical mistake pushed him into a coma by the following morning! The head neurologist stated, ‘Let him die!’ The hospital began to harass Gloria with daily demands to discharge him, while nursing homes were refusing to take him. But finally one did accept him, thinking he was going to die in a week. Through sheer determination and prayer, Gloria willed him out of a 34-day coma and helped him live another six months, while recovering from garbled speech, brain damage, and other related complications. “What happened to him at home was an accident; but what happened a
