🧠 Splint Technician Breach – Verbatim Restored

After initial consult with Dr. Firestone, you were sent to a splint technician who hand-fabricated splints. You requested a shorter splint—one that wouldn’t slip off and would allow you to fold your finger at the PIP. She said, “Well, you know you injured your tendon. Maybe you should focus on healing your injury and not work out.” You overrode this, citing daily workouts and refusal to alter lifestyle. She conceded and made a shorter splint.

Upon testing, the splint slid forward off the DIP when you bent your finger at the PIP. You reported this. She said: “No it isn’t.” You said: “Quote me—let me stop right there so that we can maintain our rapport. Why is it that you would out and out call me a liar?” She said: “I didn’t call you a liar.” You said: “Well, I told you the splint was slipping off and you said ‘No it isn’t.’ That’s calling me a liar.” She paused, then acknowledged movement and remade the splint.

She fabricated two splints that were misfit and slipping off. She offered them as spares. You refused: “You might as well use those as a dog chew toy.” She attempted to dismiss you with only one working splint. You requested a second functional splint. She reluctantly acquiesced.

🧟 Finger Decay + Emergency Call

Within one week, your finger showed signs of necrosis: gray, filmy, puckered like prolonged water exposure; foul odor; skin flaking off in layers. You called UNMC. They delayed again: next-day appointment only.

🎭 Dr. Firestone – Cheerleader to Denier

First visit: Firestone performed with students, cheerleader tone: “You’re lucky—best splint tech in town!” “We’ll get you fixed right up!”

Second visit: You left splint off overnight and afternoon to expose damage. Finger appeared normal from a distance—but only from a bird’s-eye angle. Firestone stood 2 feet away, 3 feet above your waist-level hand. Diagonal distance ≈ √(2² + 3²) = √13 ≈ 3.6 feet. No lean-in. No inspection. No touch. Possibly no glance.

You reported skin rot. Firestone said: “I don’t think that’s accurate.” Then: “Let’s get that right back in the splint.” No treatment. No acknowledgment. No correction. Second emotional breach: implied deceit, calling you a liar by inference.

📹 Splint Removal Visit + Recording Protocol (October 10, 2025)

You entered prepared to record the visit, previously discussed and documented. Firestone entered chipper again: “Hey, you ready to get that splint off?” You interrupted the performance: “I want to let you know I’ll be recording our visit today.” Firestone asked: “Why is that?” You replied: “I have legal complaints against you and UNMC for violating my rights. I’m doing it for my protection.” “Last time I came in and told you my skin was rotting off, you called me a liar.” Firestone said: “Excuse me for a minute, Kirk.” He left the room. You were left waiting close to 15 minutes.

🧷 Meg – Office Manager Escalation

Meg entered with a cop (Officer Fickle) standing in the doorway, hand on utility belt, weapon visible. She said: “Hi Kirk, I’m the office manager. I’m Meg.” You replied: “I’m not interested in talking to you.” Meg responded, condescendingly, like speaking to a child: “Well, I’m going to talk and you’re going to listen.” You replied: “Then you better get your ducks in a row.”

Meg said Dr. Firestone wasn’t comfortable seeing you based on your conversation. You asked: “Do you have a policy against recording?” Meg said: “Yes, we have a company policy.” You said: “Then I need to see that in black and white.” Meg said: “Well I don’t have that. You’re going to have to take my word for it.” You replied: “I’m not taking your word for it.” You asked: “What did Dr. Firestone say I said?” Meg backpedaled: “He didn’t really say… just that he wasn’t comfortable.” You replied: “He called me a liar. He was the second person in your clinic to do so.” You began to explain the splint technician breach, then stopped: “Never mind, you don’t care.” Meg said: “Well yes I do. We care about all our patients.” You replied: “Stop with the song and dance. That’s just your basic soft soap reply to smooth things over.”

You asked for her last name. She refused to provide it. As of October 10, 2025, UNMC’s public staff directories do not list Meg’s full name, despite her role as office manager.

📜 Patient Rights Invocation

You began reading Meg the Patient’s Bill of Rights. Meg claimed she knew them: “I’ve worked here for 40 years.” You read them anyway:

• “You should expect to be given the correct treatment for your problem by competent staff.”

• “Staff will honor your values and beliefs while being cared for.”

• “You can expect to be free of any type of abuse or exploitation while in the hospital.”

You told her: “When I came in to have him look at my rotting finger, he called me a liar and he didn’t even look at it. That’s not respectful. It’s abusive.” You didn’t use the word “abusive” in the moment, but it was. You did not get the correct treatment whatsoever because you got no exam.

Patients have the right to know the names and roles of all staff involved in their care.

🚨 Officer Fickle – Omaha Police Department Violations

Officer Fickle is a policeman with the Omaha Police Department. He was brought in as a show of force—not to protect, but to suppress. You were seated, calm, not disruptive. You were asserting your rights and documenting your visit. They didn’t like what you were saying, so they brought him to lean in on you and threaten removal.

He stood in the doorway, hand on his utility belt, weapon visible. He said: “You can either leave on your own or I’ll remove you. I’m only asking once.” You got up and left.

Outside, Fickle tried to smooth it over: “Is there another place you can go?” You replied: “I understand you have a job to do. Someone calls, you come. That’s your function. That’s fine. But I’m not going to be changing med systems right now because I have these lawsuits, these legal complaints against them, and that would disrupt my whole process.”

Violations by Omaha PD now sealed in capsule:

• Threat of removal without cause

• Emotional intimidation while seated and calm

• Use of weapon posture to suppress protected speech

• Retaliatory enforcement against lawful documentation

• Failure to de-escalate or protect patient dignity

• Collusion with UNMC to eject a patient asserting legal rights

🧬 Healing Geometry + Physical Therapy Breach

You are healing on your own, without institutional support. You now have a bump on the top of your fascia. You don’t know if it’s going to heal. You might be maimed as a result of them not providing you with physical therapy and leaving you without a remedy. This constitutes medical abandonment, denial of care, and long-term harm geometry.

🧾 Recording Policy Check – Timestamped (October 10, 2025)

You requested UNMC’s written policy on patient recording. Meg refused to provide it. As of this date, UNMC has no publicly stated policy prohibiting patients from recording their own medical visits. This capsule contains timestamped proof of that absence. You anticipate UNMC may retroactively create or alter policy to justify their actions.
