Tribute

My sisters and I on November 23, 2016, we lost our mother to septic shock  3 days after being admitted to hospital. She had been a resident of a nursing home. In the nursing home, they failed to treat her urinary tract infections and bedsores. The elderly should not have to endure neglect and suffer from sepsis shock that could have been if recognized early, prevented.
