In this gripping and emotional episode, we sit down with Stacy Ograyensek, a relentless advocate for patient rights and a voice for her late husband, Ryan. Stacy shares the harrowing journey she and Ryan endured when he was subjected to forced hospital COVID-19 protocols against his consent. From the administration of remdesivir, which led to kidney failure, to being forced onto a ventilator despite stable oxygen levels, Stacy recounts the tragic series of events that culminated in Ryan's untimely death at just 41 years old.
Stacy's fight didn't end with Ryan's passing. She has since dedicated her life to seeking justice, speaking at medical summits, participating in over 40 media interviews, and being featured in documentaries like the upcoming "Bad Medisin." In a landmark move, she filed the first lawsuit of its kind in Michigan to hold the hospital accountable. Stacy's mission is to ensure that no other patient is left alone without an advocate, and she aims to establish "Ryan's Law" to protect patient rights.
Join us for this powerful episode as Stacy Ograyensek shares her story of love, loss, and unwavering determination to fight for justice and prevent such tragedies from happening to others. This is an episode you won't want to miss.
