This video is of a former Air Force Officer who had her body completely destroyed by military doctors at the VA Hospital and the story just snowballs into hell from there.
This video was posted just 6 days ago and already has nearly 400,000 views on YouTube alone not to mention another 250,000 on LiveLeak.
Watch this and try and make sense of it.

The VA is not the military and it was a civilian doctor.
The VA is not the military and it was a civilian doctor.
I was treated by numerous civilian doctors while in. The military medical system has major problems getting doctors and lowers the standards in many cases.
Dear Lord, that poor woman. How does one not hear her story and view that video and not become enraged at what was done to her?
I could only get through 3 min of it— WOW
Watched the video. Sounds very similar to what Army Doctors did to my wife. Fortunately and no thanks to them, she survived to be later helped by a real doctor.
Ironically the thing that saved my wife was when the doctor stole her records, forcing the hospital to rerun tests which found a problem.
At one point they had my wife on the table and decided to ship her to Hawaii. One doctor said “she won’t make it and will die”, the Army doc said he couldn’t do anything about it. Butchers
Yes, a civilian doctor hired by the VA and protected from malpractice by the Federal government and the DoD.
I had great care in my 20+ years.
Depends where you are located. Some areas had good care, others were pathetic.
One word: Outrageous
True. In Viet Nam it was really poor due to unavailability. Okinawa the same story. Army boats and ships weren’t close to hospitals. Annapolis didn’t impress me either, the doctor had been drafted and thought I was CIA and he hated the CIA. Instead of pain killers he’d just tell me to tough it out. I had three broken ribs and a punchered lung.
Fort Eustis was outstanding. The orthopedist was great and I saw him a number of times for broken bones. Even after I retired it was great. I had a minor heart attack, the hospital’s third floor was being remolded but they set up a cardiac care room just for me. I even had a bedside nurse with me 24 hours a day.
