A sense of disorientation, trouble walking, and vaginal soreness. When a nurse was unable to check her blood pressure because she was “dehydrated,”
Emergency services were contacted on February 3rd, but Willis was not sent to the hospital. When Willis was ‘discovered unconscious’ the next day, paramedics and nurses performed.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on her for 30 to 40 minutes before her heartbeat was recovered. According to the complaint, Willis experienced “irreversible brain damage”
As a result of her prolonged oxygen deprivation, and the rehab center “failed” to give her with adequate treatment. After being admitted to the hospital, Willis developed “locked-in syndrome,”
Which is a “vegetative state” in which she is cognizant but unable to talk and can only move her eyes. In the uncommon neurological condition known.
As “locked-in syndrome,” brain injury causes all voluntary muscles—aside from those controlling the eyes—to become paralyzed, while the affected person is still able to see, hear, and blink.
