From 15 January to about 28 March 2021 I was confined to the Arkansas Continued Care Hospital in Jonesboro, Arkansas. During this time the physician responsible for my care was guilty of egregious malpractice which resulted in my permanent disability.

As part of his treatment I was given (without my knowledge) a number of dangerous and injurious drugs, which the doctor was not qualified to prescribe. I was tied to a bed with wires for days and not administered physical therapy for weeks. This treatment left me permanently disabled and experiencing chronic pain.

Madison Thomason is a person I have, to my knowledge, never seen. That may be because I was in a drugged - nearly comatose - state at such times as such a meeting might have occurred. Yet she is on record (see attachment) as being part of a most egregious breach of medical protocols and ethics perpetrated on my person. She should have been aware of the scandalous conduct of the doctor and the conditions in the hospital and reported it.

My family tried to extricate me by having me moved to other facilities but all refused as - the records show - due to the alleged 'behavioral issues'. Instead it was only after my family removed me from the facility without the approval of the management that I began to recover.

If this complaint is made available to the subject, let me say this:

In 65 years (exactly as I as committed to that facility on my birthday) I have never been diagnosed as having any type of mental illness and no need for an examination has ever been recommended. Since the day I left that hospital almost three years ago I have never been suspected of any sort of mental illness or exhibited any behavior suggesting it. Furthermore my recovery, such as it has been, began only after I left the hospital. It is not complete after almost three years and probably never will be. A perfectly functional and productive human being was turned into a near invalid by the treatment in that place and by your silence you are, if not in part responsible guilty of doing nothing to prevent it or bring it to the attention of someone with the ability to do so. You should be ashamed but you can take comfort in knowing your incompetence, malfeasance or whatever it was was to my benefit. Had one of those facilities accepted me I might have lingered for much longer and perhaps never recovered. When you thwarted their efforts to have me moved me my family simply took me home - over objections and warnings of dire consequences - and I recovered to the degree that I have (some of the damage you did is probably permanent) with no further treatment.

Such negligence and incompetence leaves yet another stain on the reputation of the medical industry. I realize that you do not care but the sooner that doctor is held accountable for his actions the fewer people he will harm. If you have reported the misconduct of the doctor and generally deplorable conditions in that hospital I will withdraw the complaint.
