I’m 78 & learned quickly that the ones I’d trusted were not worthy of trust. Birmingham’s St. Vincent’s Hospital was the gold standard- originally nuns were the nurses. Christian atmosphere was uplifting & care was excellent.

In 2017 my husband needed hospitalization for pneumonia & of course we chose St. Vincent’s where he’d had successful hip & knee replacements. Wonderful treatment & recovery.

His internist & cardiologist were both in the medical bldg. adjoining the hospital. So no brainer to return.

We learned his doctors had no call over his care; a “hospitalist” was in charge.Never seen him before or since. While he received decent care overall I noticed a decided difference. I learned to forcefully “request” certain things like a decent bed that had a decent mattress. A friend helped navigate a room bigger than a walk-in closet.

Today…. The behemoth UAB (University of Alabama hospital system) has bought St. V’s from Ascension which already had made negative changes. UAB was all in w/ Fauci & Remdesivir & vents. Those I know who were treated there during covid lived to tell horror stories. News accounts informed the public that all Christian vestiges will be removed once transition is complete. 😡
