[@Hello-ig1px]

you know, deep down in your heart and brain, this verdict was 100% bs and everyone was brainwashed by biased documentary. lets pretend the following. Beata was able to successfully convince the hospital to give Maya the potentially lethal dose of ketamine that was requested. The ketamine ends up killing Maya. The Kowalski's end up suing the hospital for prescribing a lethal dose of ketamine. in this pretend scenario, be honest, who would you back in the lawsuit, the Kowalski's or the hospital? The standards you guys are holding the hospital to are unreal. Its literally a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation. Plus, Maya getting off the Ketamine appears to have improved her life drastically. Everything points to the hospital being correct and the Kowalski's being wrong.

And she was right - not in the sense that she should have died, she absolutely should NOT have and she deserves to be with her family today - but she was right in the sense that not even a week after her death the hospital finally let Maya see a specialist that confirmed her diagnosis that her parents had told the hospital she had this entire time and she was finally released to her dad. They really were just waiting for her to dissapear in some shape or form. And through her sacrifice her daughter is now safe and at home where she belongs even if that means she cant be there.

So happy for them. They fought so hard against those wicked people.

[@jaykind1249]

JUSTICE! So proud of this young woman & family who fought for justice after suffering so terribly.

[@DW-bc2gl]

Vindication! My heart goes out to this family and the loss of the mother and wife.

[@WingZeroGWO]

I hope this vedict greenlights criminal indictments for all involved in the torment of this family.

[@KINGRyanthe1st]

Those DRS SHOULD GO GO JAIL JUST GIVING MONEY IS NOT JUSTICE

[@FkBdn]

Wheres the arrests with ALL of the abusers including the judge?!!!

[@maryanntesta38]

Money will never get back what they put them through!!

[@whodat7084]

[@SarahTheNearlyInSP]

That poor family!! I hope those who are guilty get sent to prison... Love, prayers and healing light to the whole family x

[@Keeponsmiling60]

Thank you jury for Justice!!!

[@mary_syl]

So the insane power trip of the hospital has ended. Heartbreaking the trauma the Kowalskis had to go through 💔 This family will take the rest of their lives to heal but at least now they have the emotional and moral victory they so much deserved - a bit of justice in this world 🙏

[@kathychapman94]

May God bless and keep this family

[@lisalisalisa999]

So sad the mom was tortured so bad. I'm glad they're being held responsible. I'm sure the money means nothing to them.

I spent several years at All Children’s Hospital growing up, for two different illnesses and medical procedures. My parents would stay in the Ronald McDonald house nearby because we lived miles away. I never experienced anything close to the damages this poor girl & her family has endured, but the case certainly hits home. I’m so incredibly happy for her, her brother and her father and I hope they can wholly heal. Blessings to this jury.

[@spookreap]

I can’t stress how much joy I feel that justice has been served. It’s unimaginable how much pain this family endured simply because of misjudgment. With all the injustices going on in this world I’m so happy at least one family got the justice they so well deserved. Well done.

[@eileenprevost5663]

I cried through the entire verdict! Thank you jury for giving this family justice!

[@bogeyta1]

Yes !! Thank you I know it won’t bring Mom back I just hope you all can heal together!! So so sorry!! ❤️‍🩹Maya Strong ❤️‍🩹

[@maryspeth3469]

Now go do great things Miss Maya ! ❤

[@motivationandmuscles]

Amen 🙌🏽

[@kaylariggs5188]

The boy has been holding that in a long time 😢

[@AnnQlder]

Justice requires that these “professionals” have their liberties stripped from them. Have there been criminal prosecutions?

[@Epic-so3ek]

Nope. I don’t think they’ve even been fired.
