<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">NYC Jericho visited Seth on Sunday, Feb.
12th. We had an excellent visit despite the current
dire circumstances. The giant lump on Seth's head has
subsided. The gash above his right eyebrow is
butterflied with two or three butterflies. Seth
reports that he awoke in the shower in a pool of blood
and does not really remember passing out. He was taken
to the nearest outside hospital with a possible
fractured skull, which was ruled out. Seth did suffer
a severe concussion and is still having headaches as a
result of this. He was kept in the so-called infirmary
at Sullivan for two days for observation. Seth reports
that being in the infirmary is like being in SHU, all
by himself with two COs constantly present and no
witnesses except the nurses, who do everything the COs
tell them to.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">Seth is also concerned because the medical
personnel at Sullivan have told him that, even if he
gets the insulin pump, he will still need to be
monitored three times a day. This is leading Seth to
believe that he will be getting an insulin pump
without a monitor, which is not what the
endocrinologist at Coxsackie told him back in October.
Seth absolutely wants the pump with the monitor, as he
can no longer tell when his sugars are high or low. He
feels that having an insulin pump without the monitor
may actually worsen his current situation. <b>WE WILL
CONTINUE TO DEMAND THE INSULIN PUMP/MONITOR AS A
LIFE-SAVING MEASURE FOR SETH.</b> </font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">Seth suffered another Diabetic Coma or Code
Blue on Feb. 5, 2017! This time he fell so hard he
broke a tooth and opened a cut above his eye. He is
currently with stabilized sugars in the infirmary with
a headache and being monitored and getting X-rays. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">Seth has been suffering from uncontrolled
diabetes for over 16 years now. His sugars go up to
the 400’s, then down so low he falls into a diabetic
coma. Each diabetic coma he goes into could end in
death if not noticed and treated right away or from a
fall such as the one that occurred today.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">We are asking that Seth be given an insulin
pump/sugar monitor immediately to avert these near
fatal incidents. He had consultation with an
endocrinologist at Coxsackie in early October 2016 and
was told the paperwork to receive a insulin pump would
be pushed immediately. On November 20, 2016 Seth wrote
a grievance stating he has not heard anything. He has
still not received any response to this grievance
almost 3 months later. Despite the endocrinologist's
recommendation, call in campaigns, and the grievance,
it is months later and still no pump. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4"><b>The NYS DOCCS is completely aware of the
situation and is stalling; we cannot afford to have
another incident of low sugar. THIS IS A MATTER OF
LIFE AND DEATH!</b></font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">Seth's constant extreme fluctuations in sugar
levels have led to him no longer being able to tell
when his sugars are high or low. The sugar monitor
sends a loud warning if his sugars are beginning to
get either too high or too low and the pump allows him
to use small dosages of insulin when needed along with
his eating schedule and daily activity.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">Here is the grievance Seth wrote due to the
long delay in approval of the insulin pump/sugar
monitor:</font></p>
<p align="center"><font face="Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif" size="4"><img moz-do-not-send="true"

height="432" border="1" width="575"></font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">In addition, Seth had another incident of low
sugar on Monday, November 28, 2016, and was in the
infirmary for overnight observation. It really is a
matter of life and death that Seth be provided with an
insulin pump/sugar monitor as soon as possible. </font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">Seth called on December 4 to state the
following:</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">If Seth's sugars are high in the morning, he
is given a dose of Levamir. If his sugars are still
high at 11 a.m., he gets a dose of actual insulin. By
the time his sugars are checked at 4 p.m. they are
usually in the 30's, prompting an emergency response.
</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4"><b>We therefore urge you to call, write and
fax to demand immediate provision of an Insulin
Pump/Sugar Monitor to Robert Seth Hayes 74A2280.
Seth needs this device immediately!</b></font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4"><b>The Demands</b> </font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="4">1. Immediate provision of an Insulin
Pump/Sugar Monitor to Robert Seth Hayes 74A2280. Seth
needs this device immediately!</font></p>

fruits and vegetables and all the current
recommendations for diabetics. Not the false diabetic
diet that is currently being issued. A bologna
sandwich on white bread at night is NOT A DIABETIC
