Coughed at in the Emergency Room

September 14, 2014

I feel depressed and overwhelmed enough to be at an Emergency Room, trying to be admitted to a crisis stabilization unit for a few days.

I have had worse ER admissions.  That doesn't mean that nobody has coughed at me, though; a few people have.

What kind of world is it when someone who is in the Emergency Room because of what sexual harassment has done to her life gets sexually harassed in the Emergency Room? During these years that the conglomerate has persecuted me, I have been admitted to ERs several times, and sexually harassed every time, by people walking past my room, janitors who decide it's time to clean, you name it.

I was just asked to produce a urine sample. That is normal, ER admittance procedure. When I got to the restroom, there was a Wet Floor sign in the doorway to the restroom.  That is not normal, ER admittance procedure, nor should it ever be.

I had to walk past another patient's room to get to and from the restroom.  The door to the room was open; it was a male patient.

After I got to my room, there were several minutes during which loud, moaning sounds were audible from outside my room.  It seemed like the source of them was the room of the male patient.  They sounded like masturbatory, moaning sounds.  I think the patient was moved to another room; I just saw him walk past my room with a couple of male, hospital employees.

I don't know whether or not the man started masturbating after he knew that I was in the next room.  That is what it sounded like.  Things like it have happened to me since the conglomerate has told the world to treat me that way.
