New York hospital ignores elderly woman while she dies..

I don't see this posted here. Sorry if someone did it already!

This is just sick, I don't even know what to say about it, I just want to show it to somebody.

2. I'm sorry for that part

I was saying it without thinking, I had just watched the CNN story with the interview with her grown daughter and had the words from tv in my head. I apologize sooooo profusely.

It's still very upsetting to me.

3. That's been on the news around here. Just sick.

Needless to say, if she was rich, things might have worked out a little differently.
