It's so chilling to think about trust in healthcare environments being completely shattered by someone like Donald Harvey. Just imagining Elizabeth's family, who must have believed she was in the best hands possible at Marymount Hospital, only to discover that her life was deliberately ended by someone they never suspected. The devastation they must have felt knowing that the very institution meant to care for their loved one was where she was harmed. It just breaks you down, realizing how someone like Harvey could operate undetected for so long, exploiting his position in such a sinister way. My thoughts go out to all the families affected by his actions. How are people supposed to feel safe in hospitals with cases like this?

I’ve been thinking about the lack of oversight in the healthcare system during the 1970s and how it allowed someone like Donald Harvey to operate for so long without detection. It's chilling to realize the level of trust we place in medical professionals, assuming they have the best interests of their patients at heart. Poor Elizabeth Wyatt and her family likely believed she was in safe hands while receiving treatment. I can’t even begin to imagine the betrayal and devastation they must have felt to learn the truth about her death decades later. In today's world, with more stringent checks and balances, do you think a situation like this could still happen? Or have we learned enough to prevent such tragedies?
