    My husband is in BIG SANDY KY and is being denied MEDICAL SERVICE! He is 39 years old. He just recently had surgery for a hernia he has been suffering from in his stomach. Now he's throwing up blood, unable to hold liquid or anything solid down. He's losing weight and looks frail. He barely can't stand on his own. I just ask for some sort of guidance and help! I don't want my husband to have to suffer. The prison doesn't answer their phones! I can't ever get in contact with anyone! It's just sickening! I am at a lost for words! I can not understand why they would just sit and watch my Husband in pain and deteriorate right in front of their eyes!

    WE'RE BETTER THAN THIS. Is it not a basic human right for prisoners to receive decent health care? Your prison's terrible treatment of sick inmates cries to heaven - and lawmakers - for reform. One example: SALVATORE RUVOLO, 88 years old with a severe heart condition, receiving no medication except Nitro. He's been imprisoned since Sept 2015 and is due to be released JUNE 2017. Why not give him a COMPASSION RELEASE NOW? We desperately need Congress to inspect fed medical center prisons with the Lexington prison first on the list. I've spent 30 years of my life advocating for the abolition of the death penalty (cf DEAD MAN WALKING) If prisoners are dying because of neglectful health care, isn't that also a form of death punishment. Please attend to SALVATORE RUVOLO Let him spend his last days with his family. from the heart, Sister Helen Prejean

    My brother has been sent to this federal medical center a few months ago. He is 79 yrs old very bad health and has vertigo as well as dementia. My brother and I are the only ones left still living in our family, our last sister recently passed this summer. FMC is where they have sent him, to die I guess. I have called and sent numerous emails to his Team Unit Counselor but I get no response or any information about him. I told them of his need to have a helper to walk with him to prevent him from falling (vertigo) and I was told by his former counselor in Forrest City he has 2nd stage Dementia and doesn't remember how to use a telephone. I visited him Dec. 2, 2016. He is not very well at all. He did say they bring his meals to his room. I did not ask if he gets commissary, but I rather doubt it. He told me when I visited the reason he hasn't called me he is confused and can't remember the last 4 digits of my phone number. He also can't remember his register number. He has been locked up 55 yrs minus few months on escape, so how can he not remember his register number? After reading this article I feel more helpless and hopeless. I see no way I can help him and as I said my phone calls and emails are ignored. I am on social security and I send money that I need myself, to help him purchase needed items for himself and nobody can tell me if he even has access to it. I don't think he does. My brother is a kind, gentle hearted person and was never charged with causing harm to another person. It is very sad and brutal that he has to suffer as others there now and before are suffering. I know the world is not fair, but there should be a law passed to treat all people no matter who they are with humane care and some amount of dignity.

    Please just allow me to send this comment, which makes all the sense in the world. Out of pure frustration I said to my son, my brothers nephew. I just don't see how politicians can allow this to happen. He answered me this way. The prisioners can't do anything for them, So sad that these lives mean nothing to the medical staff, politicians, our religious leaders, etc. I believe the comment by Dillsburg,PA., May 24,2015 says it best. And to Candi W , Shawnee,KS. Yes it is that bad at FMC Lexington.

    The doctors, guards and nurses would be in-prisoned if they treated animals the way these inmates are treated.... animals that are hurt are not allowed to suffer yet these HUMANS lie there only getting weaker and weaker until it's to late! I personally do not see how they sleep at night, much less fulfill the Hippocratic Oath they take to practice medicine. We all know justice may not be served on Earth but a day of reckoning waits in Heaven.

    My brother is currently in fmc Lexington ky. He is completely incapacitated. He was told that he needs 2 back surgeries (by neurologist) in order for him to walk and use his hands again. Yet they're prescribing "physical Therapy " for him. Doesn't it make better since to listen to the neurologist? He has lost 38lbs since oct.16th 2016. I believe he has been sent there to die. He is 61 years old & isn't a threat to anyone in this condition. Why not send him home where he can be cared for instead of letting him die there just so the prison can continue to receive the money for him. This would save the tax payers may hundreds of dollars. Yet he is being denied proper health care and wasting away daily. He requires help with even the most private needs and does not receive medications which would relieve much of the pain he is in. He is living a daily hell all for the mighty dollar to the Federal Medical System. Which is broken. Please can someone tell how to stop the inhuman treatment and soon to be the inevitable loss of by brother. All too soon! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We are not a rich family but love & want to care for my brother greatly. Please help we do not want him to return home in a box!

    My son will likely go to Lexington from Federal holding in Grayson, Kentucky Kentucky because of a medical problem he has. It is frustrating to knpw that he won't get any help when they are specifically trying to get him there so he will have good medical care. This is disgusting.

    Everything I am reading is true I have family member that was transferred from Beaumont' Texas low facility that his hip has deteriorated and was sent to bone and joint facility and was told he needed surgery immediately what did they do transfer him to Lexington Medical Center that been over 6-9 month's now he is in severe pain every day something need to be done about this. This man has served over 12 year's in prison and a clean record just serving his time for what he done my thing on this is when you break the law you do the time I agree with that but what I don't agree with is system. No one has the right to lock anyone up and neglect there health there is law for neglecting animals also . No matter what your beliefs are religion no one has the right to mistreat anyone . And at end day when it's all said and done you will have to pay for your action.

    I was an inmate at fmc lexington I worked on the F4 unit as an inmate companion. We were asked to do things that we were not supposed to do. But as an inmate I was glad to help my fellow inmates. I would be glad to speak with anyone about the care inmates receive. The nursing staff there at least on my shift was very caring .

    I spent time there and was diagnosed with a terminal cancer and yes they denied us pain meds often or have is just the bare minimum to show it in our system should we go to UK. On 3 occasions a black Dr Thompson just took me off the pain meds flat. He said I didn't need it. In which then I questioned him and was sent to the shu to side with the pain and opiate withdraws which added to the pain. And the shu is cold and damp. I filled a complaint which was tossed. And I was put back on. This happened 3 different times. Many of the staff quit do to their in house code of silence and rules. Thankfully a couple nurses would give me stuff risking their jobs as they seem the pain. Hospice has cared for me since leaving there in 2013 and they cringe when I tell them how my care was there. Law is suppose to protect us. And if your the son of the guy from California I am familiar with him as we spoke often about how horrible the treatment was. And for the guy on the other hall dieing of cancer also he would stay up all hours screaming from pain and Dr. Grouse and that other joiner would allow little of nothing. Once we were sent to UK they would give us what we needed and recommend the same for return but the FMC would simply say that's a recommendation not what we have to do. I questioned the oncology at UK they said we can write it but it is out of their hands when we leave. My oncologist did just that. But every time I would go threw the remedies I would end up in the shu and nothing was done. It's sad another human can sleep at night after doing this.
