The Doctor's Told Us That "COVID" was Attacking Our Father's Kidneys
Texas, John Peter Smith Hospital and THR Arlington Memorial
In the heart of a global crisis that reshaped the fabric of countless lives, Chris Weedman’s story stands as a harrowing testament to the devastating impact of COVID-19 protocols and the indelible mark left on one family by the healthcare system’s handling of the pandemic. This narrative, preserved within The Remembrance Project, unfolds a poignant tale of loss, betrayal, and a family’s fight against a protocol they believe mercilessly claimed the life of a beloved father and husband.
Chris’s account begins with an innocuous family outing to a football game in early September 2021, a day that spiraled into a nightmare as he, alongside his family, contracted COVID-19. In the days that followed, what seemed manageable took a turn for the worse, particularly for Chris’s father. Despite initially mild symptoms, his condition deteriorated rapidly, leading to a desperate and ultimately tragic encounter with the healthcare system.
As Chris navigated the labyrinth of hospital protocols, he witnessed first-hand the stark realities of treatment under emergency use authorization (EUA) policies, including the controversial administration of remdesivir. Despite his father’s resilience, the aggressive and isolating hospital protocols, coupled with the refusal to consider alternative treatments, left the family feeling helpless and ignored. The decision to place Chris’s father on a ventilator, taken without family consent, marked the beginning of the end. His subsequent rapid decline culminated in a heart-wrenching decision to withdraw life support, a moment that Chris describes with palpable grief and profound loss.
They wouldn't let us in for the first 8 days or so. He texted a few times that he wanted food and water. Mom called them about that. They never sought consent from us because my dad was incapable of being his own RP in the hospital due to pain meds and oxygen. They didn't tell us much and they intubated him without ever telling us. They never gave us a chance to say goodbye. They were rude for the most part and dismissive. Once we did meet with the hospital, they advocated hospice which we denied. Once they found out we had questions and concerns, they put us all on information lock down.
