          Thank you for sharing this story. Things can only change is the abuses are shared with many people.

          I am sorry she is going through this.

        That really sounds like some dystopian science fiction novel. But I guess that’s true for a lot of things going on in the US right now.

          Funny you should say that. When she first told me what was going on, my mind immediately went back to that Robin Cook novel Coma from the 70s, lol.
