'Unwed'
Mothers Policy: MEDICAL ASSAULT
After preparation, unwed mothers in labour would be given
heavy levels of sedation known as lytic cocktails, designed
to obliterate feelings. The cocktails consisted of psychotropic
barbiturates in a combination of any of the following: Chloral
Hydrate, Doriden, Pethidine, sparine, largactyl, morphine,
heroin, Pentabarbital, Sodium Amytil, Lithium, codeine.
What it constitutes is medical assault. These drugs were
not administered as usual procedure in a normal delivery to
married women. This 'treatment' was specifically used on unmarried
women. And the administration of Depostestosterone immediately
post birth indicates a preconceived plan to remove your baby
from you by denying you your natural right to lactate and
to keep or change your mind about adoption post birth and
BEFORE you signed any consent to adoption. A set up is what
it was. Lactation suppressants debond the mother from her
baby by interferring in the maternal receptor sites apparantly.
They make it less possible for a mother to fight for her child.
Unless you signed a consent to allow such drugs to be used
on you they have commtted medical assault. Nembutal is another
name for Pentobarbital. While it was banned in Australia in
the early 1970's for human consumption, it is still in use
today in Australia as the drug of choice for euthenasia when
putting animals down. Dr Kevorkian uses Nembutal as his drug
of choice when assisting suicides.
After my water broke in the maternity reformatory, I
was taken to the hospital. I had ONE contraction and didn't
know anything else until four hours later in a drugged
state in the "recovery room" after my daughter
was born. FOUR HOURS later!! One contraction!! They forced
my daughter out of me using:
Demerol 100 mg. plus 100 mg. of Phenergan by intramuscular
injection, paracervical block, IV Pitocin 1cc and
another administration of IV Pitocin 3cc in conjunction
with Dextrose IV 400 mg (as stated in the notes).
I was also given Ethylene Gas (which they no longer
use because it can cause a fire. But it is used as
a PRESERVATIVE for vegetables and fruits in transit!!).
Post delivery the hospital records state:
"Darvon Compound 65 mg orally, Depostestosterone
200 mg by intramuscular injection and Nembutal 100mg."
Absolutely no one was with me other than a nurse who
I saw once before they knocked me out. No maternity
reformatory personnel, no family member...no one. I
think it's a miracle many of us, and our babies, didn't
die from over-medication.
I believe this was medical malpractice.
