Deborah worked for Kaiser in the South Sacramento area for seven years as a Unit Assistant.

Deborah loved her job.  She was great around patients and she got along well with her co-workers.

Deborah had a great personality and she loved to laugh and make others feel god about themselves.

Deborah's biggest problem at the job was her Supervisor who continued to try and find things wrong with Deborah and her work.

When one of Kaiser's physicians was going to give Deborah time off of work because of health problems, her Supervisor stepped in behind Deborah's back and restricted the Physician from doing so.

Deborah was being seen by Kaiser doctors for depression.  Headaches, migraines, abnormal bleeding, stomach problems.  Deborah was on a number of medications which caused her demise as an employee.

Deborah like most employees did not question their doctors about what was being prescribed for them and instead of getting better or well, Deborah like so many other employees experienced getting worse.  Physically and mentally worse, yet she found herself unable to work without some type of medication for one reason or another.

Deborah's further health problems made her emotionally unstable and her supervisor wrote her up for having a bad attitude on the job.  She was said to be disruptive in the work place and by that time she had to where or no one to turn to.

Deborah found herself leaving the work place on Disability.  The time that Deborah spent out on Disability turned out to be devastating to her well being.

Deborah was not getting anymore help from her primary physician at Kaiser and being in the Comp System means seeing doctor's that Deborah's attorney makes appointments for her to see and then having to see the doctors that the defense chooses as well.

Deborah was not able to make it financially so she asked Kaiser for some of her 401K money which she needed desperately despite having to pay a large fee, but without the money she would be evicted and Kaiser knew this.  Deborah even had her landlady write a note to them as testimony.  Kaiser however, took so long that Deborah found herself homeless, which is not unlike many other Kaiser employees over the years.

During one of Deborah's pre-trials, Kaiser's attorney had made her an offer of $2,000 dollars to drop her case.  When Deborah refused such an offer, that was the last offer she was ever given.

At the CAB trial, the Judge based his decision solely on an AM Report that was written for the defense.  The contents of the report were delusive and diabolically written.  The report accused Deborah of abruptly stopping her medication of Prozac  which the report went on to state that she had been taking Prozac for four years.  The end result was that Deborah caused her own out-bursts at work and her own injury.

The reconsideration and Writ of Review were fought on the grounds that Deborah never took Prozac except for one pill and that she had her doctor put her back on something that she was familiar with.

Further investigating went into Deborah's case after she had lost both appeals.

The real evidence was found in the same paperwork used by the AM who used most of his report to discredit Deborah, such as his comment on his psychological testing that Deborah somatized, displacing emotional problems and conflicts onto bodily preoccupation's.

Actually the sad truth of the matter is that Deborah ws suffering form intolerant reactions to most of the medications that were being prescribed over the years  Many of those medications were tricylics and yet when tricylics are combined with other medications that have known toxic side effects such as toradol mixed with nortriptyline can contribute to impaired mental and physical abilities, anxiety and restlessness and agitation.  The GI Bleeding and Ulceration's were also over looked for what was really causing such physical ailments.

The Judge made the remark that Deborah was given good representation when in fact right after Deborah's trial the attorney was fired for Alcohol Abuse
