FRIDAY MARCH 3, 2017</font></b></font></h2>
<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>

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>
<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif" size="4">2. A Diabetic Diet that
consists of fresh 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 DIET!</font></p>

remain calm and respectful but to be clear in
these demands</font></p>
