At a hospital again. I woke up to stinky meat next to me. They told me they don’t have vegan food. They’re very ostensibly rude about this. Had to listen to a long tirade from the room"mate" about how carnism is natural.

I’m in a lot of pain which makes me really irritable. I really didn’t need to be made to gag with the meat.

Last time I was in a hospital they would throw meat into my food as well making sure it touched everything so I wasn’t able to eat the veggies without the corpse taste.

I don’t get why people are so malicious about it. I’m trying not to cry not to give them satisfaction. I am vegan for moral reasons. This is extremely uncomfortable.

    I find some of the responses here disturbing. I was told of making conspiracy theorists by a person making up fantasy about me being abusive! Based on absolutely nothing. I am incredibly patient and polite towards anyone, going out of my way to thank the staff who help me. I believe people like such are literally dangerous as you promote attack on me while I’m so vulnerable for no reason other than your fantasy.

    Update regarding the staff:

    They threatened me with using needles in spite of my allergy. I wasn’t given any food after the surgery the entire day, so I was really lucky to had saved a banana, which they didn’t know of and is not sufficient meal for an entire day, especially after a heavy surgery.

    Those people don’t seem to be nurses in the entire sense either. They don’t do the needles. They sent another person to do so. I spoke with said person and he agreed I shouldn’t be given a venflon and told me to administer medicine orally, and that he will tell them to do so.

    I was refused help to stand up since I haven’t stood up on my own since the surgery, but needed to go to the bathroom. I was told I’m not allowed to stand up. No help for bathroom was provided, even to do the do in the bed, which I think is humiliating and deeply unkind towards the other patient in the room. So the indirect result is I’m literally expected to poo directly in the bed onto it.

    While I understand why people suggest a lawyer, I don’t have the financial means and I’m suffering physically in the now. I consider discharging myself because I believe this is deep medical neglect, and I feel like my life is being endangered. I am scared I won’t be able to hold it in and the bacteria would infect my wounds. Not to mention the lack of nutrition affecting healing.
