Andrea Dunlop: 我和家人长期怀疑我姐姐Megan对孩子的医疗状况存在不实陈述,但由于Megan的专业背景和对信息的控制,我们很难质疑她。最终,Megan隐瞒了医生关于我外甥不需要进行胃造口手术的建议,这让我意识到她一直在撒谎,后果不堪设想。这段经历对我的生活和心理健康造成了持久的影响,即使我的生活现在很好,我也无法完全摆脱这段痛苦的回忆。人们倾向于相信自己所爱之人的话,这使得医疗虐待案件难以被发现。
Dr. Lauren Turek: 追寻教会虽然并非五旬节派,但其语言和实践方式受到五旬节派的影响,体现出其狂热和情绪化的特点。早期五旬节派信徒相信说方言是上帝的召唤,促使了该教派在全球的迅速传播。
Russell Johnson: 我们不会因为恐惧或威胁而停止聚会和敬拜上帝。
Cassandra Johnson: 我和Sophie在教会里认识,我们主要在教会活动中互动,例如儿童教会和筹款活动。教会为Sophie筹款购买了一辆无障碍车辆,我参与了宣传工作。
Gymnastics Mom: 我记得C经常佩戴腿部支具,并向其他人展示。我也记得看到C有时使用轮椅,有时佩戴腿部支具行走。
School Aide: C拥有个人轮椅,但配置方式并非适合自行动力使用者。我很少在与C进行远程物理治疗时看到C使用轮椅。
Neighbor: 我们几乎没有见过C使用轮椅,只有在拍摄纪录片时才看到。
Anne Hartman: 我见过C正常进食。
Art Hartman: 我从未见过C呕吐或无法进食。
Hippotherapy Provider: C经常谈论食物。
Church Member: C喜欢食物,但Sophie必须控制她的饮食,因为她可能会窒息。C通常情况下能够正常进食,除非她处于发病期。
Dr. Bex: 临床诊断主要依赖于病人的描述和症状,而非具体的医学检测结果。儿科医生通常依赖于父母的陈述来进行诊断,这增加了医疗虐待案件的难度。
Dr. Jill Glick: 如果一个孩子能够正常进食,那么就没有必要进行胃造口手术。大多数父母都不希望自己的孩子需要胃造口管。在医疗虐待案件中,父母的动机与医生的目标不一致,需要仔细甄别信息中的矛盾之处。电子病历系统存在缺陷,例如数据错误和系统之间缺乏互通性,这为医疗虐待的发生提供了机会。需要建立一个全国性的电子病历系统,实现数据共享和互通,以减少医疗虐待的发生。
Sophie Hartman: 她声称C由于疾病而严重行动不便,有时无法行走甚至瘫痪数小时或数天。她有时需要轮椅和助行器,但并非全天候使用。她感谢Scott Coatings公司的企业赞助,并表示无法在没有企业赞助的情况下完成这一切。她声称C的胃造口管是玛丽桥医院建议的。她持续地夸大C的呕吐、脱水等症状,并多次带C去急诊室。她进行的三次吞咽功能测试结果均显示正常或轻微异常,但Sophie却向医生报告了相反的结果。

Andrea Dunlop: 'Megan is very smart, and she was a nurse for some period of time, so she would explain everything about my nephew's health in a way that would be extremely hard to question.'
Andrea Dunlop: 'But during this appointment, my mom was sitting in the room when the doctor told Megan the opposite, that they should give my nephew more time with a less invasive tube.'
Andrea Dunlop: 'The next day, Megan gave me an update on his health...And she told me that, unfortunately, it looked like he was going to need the G-tube surgery.'
Dr. Bex: 'A clinical diagnosis is a diagnosis that relies on the story and the symptoms that are being described more than anything I can do a specific test for or a physician can do a specific test for.'
Dr. Jill Glick: 'Most parents don't want a G-tube.'
Sophie Hartman: 'She has a wheelchair and she has a walker. We still utilize those absolutely when she needs it. But it's not a 24-7 thing.'
Sophie Hartman: 'We're so thankful to Scott Coatings for their corporate sponsorship. We couldn't do it without corporate sponsors.'
Neighbor: 'The only time I've seen that kid in a wheelchair is when this film crew came and did this like documentary about her'
Anne Hartman: 'Have I seen her eat? Yeah. Sandwiches, apples.'
Art Hartman: 'Have you ever seen her, you know, like throwing up or unable to eat or any of those types of behaviors? I've not seen her throwing up.'
