They wouldn t do anything : Indigenous woman who lost baby alleges negligence, racism in B C hospitals

  TORONTO An Indigenous woman in northern British Columbia is speaking out after she was allegedly mistreated at two hospitals while in labour, which she says lead to the death of her baby daughter. In an interview with the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network, Sarah Morrison from Haisla Nation said she was denied proper care at two B.C. hospitals and was denied an ambulance trip, which forced her father to drive her 45 minutes to a different hospital. “I think if all lives were held the same value this wouldn’t have happened,” Morrison told APTN. “The ambulance attendant asked if we could pay, I said: ‘I don’t care how much it is, I will pay it.”

  VANCOUVER With her mom by her side and clutching a yellow and red teddy bear, Sarah Morrison’s grief spills out. “This is a gift we bought our baby,” she explains through sobs. The Kitimat, B.C., woman never had the chance to give her daughter that gift. Morrison says she was two weeks past her due date when contractions started in late January. She had little pre-natal care, but says everything seemed fine with her pregnancy. She went to Kitimat General Hospital, where she says a nurse checked her baby’s pulse. Then a doctor came in. “He said he couldn’t do anything for us, that we should’ve gone to Terrace, Morrison said in an emotional interview with APTN.
