{"product_id":"ginger-pendo-one-who-flew-into-the-cuckoo-s-nest-9798899221972","title":"One Who Flew Into The Cuckoo's Nest","description":"Now eighty years old, I desperately want America to know about all my acutely psychotic patients I cared for as an acute psychiatric RN BSN. They lived lives of stench, starvation, sleeping on the streets, barely clothed, and so on-lives of pure horrible hell. Many people call them human garbage! My heart is breaking knowing that few in our government hear their cries for help! When I was working in Guam, there were no acute psychotic patients. I don't know now, but when I was there, the patients in Guam were wonderfully cared for by their government. They had small apartments and a small staff taking care of them. My unit in Hawaii was wild: chairs getting thrown around, a multitude of both staff and patient full-body takedowns to the floor, getting full-on punches or slaps to my face. One male patient threw me to the floor and tried to rip off my clothes. I was terrified. This job was extremely dangerous! At the height of a patient's psychotic break is when they are most dangerous! When I left Queen's Hospital, I promised my patients and God I would tell America about my patients' cruel stories. I know there are people trying to make a difference, and hopefully, my story can help them.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nI also wrote briefly about my life as a child. At age five till age thirty-two, I was deemed \"retarded,\" now called \"challenged.\" At age thirty-two, I questioned my retardation. As I had always wanted to be a nurse, I took chemistry and earned an A. Whoopee! A whole new world opened for me.","brand":"Page Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53823002673494,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/ginger-pendo-one-who-flew-into-the-cuckoo-s-nest-9798899221972","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
