One of the nurses explained they are following a protocol for congestive heart failure which supposedly specifies *drying out* the patient. That is the cover for withholding food and water.
... the attitude was VERY hostile. Just guessing here, but IMO there is a LOT a hatred for white people going on in hospitals.

In 1973, my then-husband (since passed), was hospitalized for severe C5-C6 spinal cord injury. He had good hospital care, but then was transferred to a local rehab facility.
I ended up hiring a huge biker with hostility issues to just stand in the room, arms folded. He only left when I was there (back then, family and friends were allowed in the facility). Prior to the standing of a guard, my husband was handled roughly, ignored and subjected to myriad instances of abuse and contempt.Once the guard was in place, that all ended.
We told everyone that the biker was his brother.
