Over a week after Gail Seilerโs physician had given her a terminal diagnosis, her husband, Brad Seiler, wheeled her out of the back door of the hospital where she had been admitted for COVID-19 on Dec. 3, 2021.
โIโm so sorry, Mrs. Seiler, but you are going to die,โ she recalled her physician telling her on Dec. 5.
On Dec. 15, despite resistance from hospital staff, Brad extracted Seiler from Medical City Plano hospital in Plano, Texas, where the couple lives.
Seiler is one of the few patients who has lived to tell her story about what she said she witnessed on the inside with COVID-19 hospital treatment protocols.
โIt became clear to me that people are not dying in hospitals from COVID. They are dying from these protocols,โ Seiler told The Epoch Times.
Seiler went in for a monoclonal antibody infusion with the request that she be given the early-treatment protocols prescribed through the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC), which included the use of ivermectin and budesonide.
However, when staff discovered she was unvaccinated, โthe whole tone changed,โ she said.
โI quickly lost the right to advocate for my own medical care,โ she said.
โI Didnโt Come Here to Dieโ
After a 26-hour wait, she finally got a bed in the intensive care unit (ICU), but no family members were allowed to visit, she said.
This is where she met Dr. Giang Quach, the physician who told her she was going to die because she was unvaccinated, she said.
โI told him, โI didnโt come here to die,โโ she said.
Seiler said Quach pushed her to take remdesivir, a drug known to cause kidney failure. She repeatedly asked for a different doctor, but her pleas went unanswered andย Quach remained in charge of her care, she said.
In 2018, President Donald Trump signed the Right to Try Act into law, which allowed patients with life-threatening diseases who have exhausted all other options to try certain unapproved treatments.
Because Quach had given Seiler a terminal diagnosis, she was entitled to try FLCCC protocols to treat COVID-19, but the hospital denied her those treatments, she said.
Quach also denied Seiler her right to see a priest to administer her last rites, she said.
So, Seiler made a deal with Quach, she said.
She said she would submit to a round of remdesivir if Quach let her see her priest for final sacraments.
Quach agreed, and Seiler was allowed to see her priest, she said.
โThen, we denied the remdesivir,โ Seiler said. โThey were pretty angry about it, but honestly, I felt I was in a fight for my soul. When the priest left, I had this renewed feeling that I was going to live and not be killed.โ
