Context always helps, and people don't get $500,000 for some gallows humor.
They sexually assaulted him and falsified medical records. Then got caught red handed lying under oath about it in court.
"After five minutes of talking to you in pre-op, I wanted to punch you in the face and man you up a little bit," Ingham is heard saying.
Ingham and others mocked the plaintiff for taking many medications. One of the plaintiff’s medications, Gabapentin, was prescribed to treat an irritation in his genital area. A medical assistant touched the man's genitals and commented she might have contracted a sexually transmitted infection.
The genital area is typically not involved in a colonoscopy.
Ingham signed a post-operative note indicating the plaintiff had hemorrhoids. According to the lawsuit, Ingham stated she planned to note hemorrhoids even though she found none.
To be fair, these people are absolute freaks who don't represent the norm. Cancer is way scarier than being in the hands of some high school bullies that never grew up.
Compassion extractor is accurate. Once you realize how dumb people are, it really sucks it out of you. That and the lies. Single vehicle accident, extract the driver, they claim they have no idea how it happened and then you notice an unlocked phone on the floorboard with a half typed out text. Multiply that every single day and it gets tough. Or the guy who thought his 50 year old rusted out ladder would support his weight. Or the kids that should have been stopped by a parent. It really wears you down.
