- When 10-year-old Maya Kowalski was admitted to Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital in 2016, nothing could have prepared her or her family for what they were about to go through. As the medical team tried to understand her rare illness, they began to question the basic truths that bound the Kowalskis together. Suddenly, Maya was in state custody - despite two parents who were desperate to bring their daughter home. The story of the Kowalski family - as told in their own words - will change the way you look at children’s healthcare forever.

/ @netflix - Zábava
To the judge, hospital staff, and all involved in the system, remember for the rest of your life, you are evil. Sooner or later, karma will pay back.
Both those judges are worthless POS. Judges decisions can ruin families lives too
Amen to that
Yo maya is doing great with dad. Mom had super issues. Like hanging herself issues. That bad my religious friends.
@@carpenterjoe6763i think you were born with one neuron or something.
@@inesa1818 yea I don’t believe in god and never had a suicide been anyone else’s fault. Ever.
The doctor responsible for having Maya taken away from her family is the same doctor who had Syesha Mercado’s baby son taken away from her and her husband. If you haven’t heard of them, look it up. I followed Syesha’s story almost as soon as she started to speak out about it. Then when this documentary came out, I realized it was the same exact doctor: Sally Smith. A woman who is responsible for having countless children taken away from their loving families and ruining their lives. The fact that she is STILL a practitioner is abhorrent. She is a criminal.
Where is 4chan we need them on this.
muy cierto, la justicia en EEUU de america es una de las peores del mundo.... vamos a ver que pasa en el juicio a salley el 11 de septiembre de 2023... si va presa !!, que lo dudo viendo el sistema de justicia corrupto que opera en EEUU
She sounds like a straight up Narcissist
This whole story reminded me of the Netflix film: I care a lot. People make bank through this kind of industry, especially private corperations.
They gave maya back to dad almost immediately after the mom was no longer a threat. And she and dad are doing great.
There’s something very wrong with our medical system where a person can take a child away based on opinion and not fact. The way the mother and her daughter were treated were disgusting. I’m thankful for Netflix for giving this family the platform to tell their story. Hospitals and doctors are not Gods. I hope justice prevails.
FACTS ARE FACTS. They don't change. OPINIONS are fickle! They change with anyone's mood or weather or whatever
Dependency system is a corrupt closed universe. And they can walk into your home and take your child based on nothing, literally nothing. And you can't fight back, even if your innocent.
Hospitals should stop reporting possible abuse! So should schools! I agree. Imagine thinking self-deletion is so basic and simple. You’re bias-poisoned by the documentary. ❤
@@BigupSlimeself deletion? what are you 12? it’s called suicide
@@BigupSlimeyou're sick
Reminds me of my sister. At age 12 she collapsed from a bad asthma attack and my parents tried to tell doctors what meds she needed, but they gave her something else ( which turned out to be the wrong meds) and ended up causing her to be in a vegetative state. Then, told my family she had less than 5 years to live. Yeah. That was in 1983. My sister is well and alive today. She's still in a vegetative state ( can't walk, eat on her own, or talk - anything like that) but she laughs a lot at our voices when we enter the room. Doctors are not always right.
This is awful. I’m so sorry ❤
There are so many cases like these its terrible how many lives they destroy. The worst part is once they call cps they basically have all the power and endless monetary resources. Parents will go bankrupt trying to save their children from these monsters. How can they be so evil and cruel.
The medical system has WAY too much power, and people had better wake up to it before that becomes irreversible. I'm so sorry for the trauma your family endured.
Governments have WAY too much power and people had better wake up to it before it becomes irreversible.
They call it practicing medicine for a reason. Which honestly shocks me.
The hospital billing is crazy! The attorneys really have something there. Why was the hospital treating her for an illness they didn't think she had?!?!
I almost fainted when I saw that. It shocked me and broke my heart.
10000$ per day from insurance 300000 per month...1 m before mother death. Kid was a gold mine
I was bawling my eyes out while watching their story, I hope they got the justice they deserved!
I was too. I should have known this all came down to money as they were billing the insurance companies during Maya's stay. Where John Hopkins Children's Center might be 'winning' in court, they have lost when it comes to public opinion and reputation. Just check their google ratings since this aired.
@@jeanieferris whatever they were doing at least maya legs aren’t all twisted in anymore. She’s playing piano and walking about. If she was still on that quack doctors kettamine crap she wouldn’t be in very good shape right now.
@@jeanieferris Right! and how is that not malpractice that they were apparently treating her for an illness they didn't even think she had?!
They are still going through the legal proceedings with a court date on Sept 11 this year
Me too
This happened to me. It happens way more often than people realize. Never getting justice is a hard bitter pill to swallow
I'm so sorry. What happened, if you don't mind?
This family got justice a few days ago...200 million
Same something similar happened to me too. I was institutionalised because they didn’t think I was sick
I just watched the documentary. It's horrifying, heartbreaking, and infuriating. Don't expect these stories to disappear, if you're one of the people who advocate for courts taking children away from their parents. Unless there is extreme, immediate, VERIFIABLE abuse, children belong with their parents, period.
Usually if it's extreme abuse they will return the child to the family...make it make sense 😐
Ew. Speaking of kids as if they’re property 🚩🚩🚩. It’s obvious you’re a more careful abuser.
I was skeptical at first watching this, but the story is compelling and heart wrenching. As a nurse for 28 years myself, I carefully listened to both sides of the story. It’s apparent this family suffered an irreversible trauma. Thankful for the reporter exposing this injustice. This story needs to be told! Will be watching the upcoming trial closely.
They need to do the other side of the story documentary really soon.
Trial? They are trying to blame someone else for the mom hanging (get this) herself. No reasonable adult will play into this.
@@carpenterjoe6763They're not trying to sue for the mom's death. They're suing for emotional distress caused to the entire family during the 3 months that Maya was medically abducted and not giving Maya the proper treatment. (While also charging insurance for the exact condition they were insistent Maya didn't have).
@@AliceA020 maya was in there because she was not getting the proper treatment. That quack kettamine doctor was a nut job.
@@AliceA020 they took her because mayas legs were all twisted in and the girl could hardly move. Now that she is away from that kettamine quack doctor Maya is in far better shape. Playing piano, swimming in a pool. Unfortunately they had to take her. So there will be no delusional justice in your eyes.
Take care of Maya is the story of a happy family who were the victim of a flawed system and how it changed their entire lives forever. The damage that was done to this family is irreversible.
Yes it is, I agree just so so sad, and I cried for the family; totally unfair by te flawed system; drove the mother to suicide 😢
I'm not sure, but was this movie based on a true story 🤔??
@@sis779 Yes, it’s a documentary about actual events that took place
I love how amarikans try to normalize all situations or reducing it into a "flaw" in the system.
It truly is an amarikan attribute, just like you normalize the murder and k!lling of brown and black people calling it "freed0m and dem0cracy" campaign.
just like how you normalize all the c0rruptions, criminal!ty, c0rporate frauds, banking frauds, weekly sh00tings and calling it 2nd amendment rights, freed0m this freed0m that whilst ALL your systems are practically br0ken and c0rrupted by the same c0rporations, wealthy class, you so loved who will happily expl0it ordinary amarikans.
This isn't a "flaw", this is by design, to expl0it and pretending to be benev0lent, just like amarikans spreading freed0m to middle east whilst gen0ciding brown people. You deserve the system you so worshipped.
@@sis779 uhhh didn’t drive the dad to suicide.
In 2014 my husband was falsely accused and arrested on child abuse charges because our 4-year-old daughter had a medical condition called ITP - Immune thrombocytopenic purpura which literally translates to spontaneous and excessive bruising and bleeding because the body attacks your platelets. We had no idea what it was. DCF didn't care to find out the truth. The court didn't care to find out the truth. UF Shands Hospital in Gainesville FL Pediatric Hem/Oc is who diagnosed her, educated DCF and saved my daughter. Too many people have the ability to destroy families and lives with no repercussions when they're wrong. DCF made a horrible mistake and not a single person ever apologized or took accountability. They hire morons and monsters. My husband was arrested and sent to jail, he had an injunction against me and the children and was isolated from his family. I lost both of my children and my husband for 6 weeks until the truth came out about the medical diagnosis. I haven't watched this documentary, but it seems all too familiar. Sad.
Sorry to hear your story. You are right they hire morons. Those that work at DCF/CPS are those that barely passed their degree. Many are interns without any education.
My brother was arrested for abusing his children days before his wife gave him divorce papers. It came out in court that her and her two girlfriends planned this months before. Over a year after he was acquitted, My brother ran into the now retired detective that told him that everybody knew he was innocent, including the prosecutor but because of the way the child abuse investigations are set up, it couldn't be stopped from going to court. Even though the justice system knew his wife and girlfriends lied, the doctor signed off on a rash as abuse without question and the therapist admitted that she believes all girls are victims of sexual abuse, nothing happened to any of them
WOW
I once briefly worked for DCF ( in the SNAP cases), but they fired me after training was done. These types of sitches are likely the reason why they didn't wanna keep me on the payroll ...if I would've found out this corruption at that time, holy 🤎💩🤎🐵 would there be a major FUBAR !!!
@@rogerm3708 women being women and men being in on it. I promise you if the roles were reversed and your brother accused the mother of abuse, they would have never of investigated the matter even if she had done it. Female criminality is allowed to thrive in the west...brought to you by the suffragette movement
@@rogerm3708 everything that cop said was complete BS. If it was a woman being accused she would have never of been charged even if she was guilty.
I've never had a positive experience taking my kids to the hospital. This documentary is beyond gut wrenching but it's an eye opener.
I’ve had nothing but good experiences taking my kids to the hospital. Jesus where do you internet nut jobs come from?
This is the scary effect of the one-sided biased lazy journalism by netflix. People villainizing and losing trust in hardworking health professionals.
Oh, sad. My local hospital was great the one time I took my kid.
That woman Sally Smith and Lee Haworth, the judge who wouldn't let Beata see her daughter, are a couple of soulless bastards. It's not possible face absolutely no consequences at all for their actions. They both deserve to be in jail. The documentary said the trial will finally begin in 9-11. I hope the Kowalskis get the justice they so long have waited for
They did 200 million.
@@Heavens-Humanaterian-Army It's incredible! Some justice was finally done! Thanks man, I read it here and then googleed it to confirm it :)
The judge and others got no punishment. Evil!
@@Heavens-Humanaterian-Army
Money doesn't mean justice is done!
@@faded..00 that's why I say some justice is done, because that amount really hurt the culprits, trust me. Of ciurse jail would have been total justice
Watched a few days ago, it was a difficult watch. Love to the Kowalski family for being so strong!
I also watched and what Maya went through, and her parents, unbelievable and sad 😔
@@carie7666maya doing great with dad. Love dad. Mom had issues.
Well mom wasn’t so strong now was she?
@@carpenterjoe6763the only issue mom had was that she loved her daughter and was desperate for her daughter to stop being in so much pain. After they stole her daughter away not only did they put her in danger by placing her in the hands of that nurse who had charges of child abuse against her. But they forced Maya to live in pain the entire time they had her. And they also caused the mothers death. This is what happens when you give a crazy person like doctor Smith to have so much power. There are countless families she has destroyed!
This story is absolutely gut wrenching. I pray this family gets justice
They did...200 million.
This film needs more promotion and publicity. I only discovered by pure confidence.
The film was beautifully directed. The presentation of the story and facts was incredibly beautiful and heartbreaking. The story is shocking and devastating.
As a Marine Corps Veteran, few things shock me. What happened to this family and countless others... shakes me to my core. My heart breaks for these families. I hope this documentary helps put a stop to this. Praying for the Kowalskis and all those affected 🙏🏽
Omg 😲, so it was based on a true story which really happened to them, and countless other families from other states, not sure in other countries; so sad 😢
Hoorah 🇺🇸
I’m totally on the hospitals side. Thanks to them and good ole dad maya doing great. Sorry mom had major issues and hung herself. Mental health is an isssue.
There will be few who try to defend this apart from that part of corporate America that makes its $Billions from exploiting the innocent in such a cruel manner.
@@carpenterjoe6763you are just a troll. God knows what you were watching. The treatment of that daughter by John Hopkins broke that poor mum. So upsetting
I have CRPS, and I can tell you, it is the most physically painful experience I have ever had the displeasure of going through. It gets so bad I want to have my leg amputated. However, if you knew me, I'd likely get phantom pain.
I have thought about death with dignity but I don't want to just yet. I have things I still need to experience but somedays it is the only thing on my mind.
You may think you know pain but you do not know this pain and consider yourself lucky.
That ketamine treatment can cost upwards of $7k, and it's not covered by insurance so I cannot afford something that might help me. Again, that thought creeps in my head but I still have to fight. So, I am. Every freakin day, I fight. I fight the pain, I fight the mental anguish, I fight for my dogs, I fight for my life.
Some disabilities aren't seen and some are. If someone tells you they have CRPS recognize that it is severe and it is mentally taxing. Please, whatever you do, do not negate our pain by saying, "Well, everyone has pain," or "You just have to fight through it." These are ignorant, and we are made to feel worse bc no one understands the immense agony we struggle with day in and day out.
If you wanna know what level of pain it is, check out the McGill pain scale.
If you want to help your loved one, listen to them, believe them, and whatever you do, DO NOT TOUCH THE EFFECTIVE LIMB. It hurts more than you can even know. Thankfully.
Just finished watching this heart-wrenching documentary. Everyone should watch it. The corrupted system and all those evil doctor, judge, and social worker involved have to be exposed to the world! My deepest sympathy goes to the Kowalski family and wish they receive the justice they deserve eventually, otherwise, what hope is there for our society? Thank you, Netflix, for making another influential documentary!
The system saved Maya’s life. It’s pretty easy to see
@carpenterjoe6763 she was worse leaving the hospital.
@@FCUK- how was she worse?
@carpenterjoe6763 her pain was worse her feet were back to being bowed in her standing stability was pretty much non existent etc. Not to mention the mental trauma she endured not being able to see her parents. You need to watch the documentary and actually watch the trial it all gets explained in both.
@@carpenterjoe6763here u r again commenting without knowing anything. Get a life!
She finally won the lawsuit!!! The hospital has to pay her a ton of money now
I just finished watching this documentary, and I can’t stop crying, my eyes are just full with tears, I feel so sad for this family,I will pray hard for this family, to receive the justice that they need, and all the rest of the families😢❤
Cried so much during this documentary. We need to automate these doctors. Nurses are needed but doctors should be robots. I've encountered a Dr. Sally Smith when I was dealing with my mom when she was in the ICU. These doctors are so prideful it's ridiculous.
watched this today with my mom... made both of us so angry and we bawled our eyes out 😢
I've known children in the school district who are neglected & abused- NOTHING is ever done😡
I just finished the documentary, and I’m shaken to my core of how flawed the system is. How little work was done to determine that a case is a child abuse case. It’s mind boggling especially since this is such a big hospital and trained medical professionals. They only do this to cover their own asses and not think how much of an impact it could bring to the families. I’m disgusted. My heart breaks for all the families that have experienced this injustice. There is nothing worse than being separated from your own parents when you’re a young child. I hope God sees this and justice will be brought to these families ❤
God does see and justice will be done, if not in this life, then the next
They got justice. The government saved mayas life from mom and kettamine quack. Do you even know what kettamine is?
Anyway they won’t get any money from courts but they got Maya back from the low end. That’s worth more than money. Too bad mom didn’t have the Will to hang in there for her daughter. So sad for Maya
@@carpenterjoe6763they stole this child from her parents, caused her mothers death and forced Maya to live in pain the entire time! The worst part is they have been doing this to countless families for years!!
@@carpenterjoe6763ohhh doctor !!! U need anesthesia
@@carpenterjoe6763 lmao bros just copy pasting his comments everywhere 🤣
Sincerely hope this family gets justice nothing will replace losing a mother/wife and the torture this child and her family faced but hopefully they get justice to let them get some sort of healing and closure
Their trial is this September. I hope the news covers it. It could really make a difference for a lot of victims and their families.
I hope so too 🙏 😢 🙏
@Dany_Stormborn The parents are suing all of them but they kept putting the trial off, trial starts September against the hospital and all the staff
I think if the hospital would have shit the mother they would have a case. Or maybe if the child was doing worse since the hospital had ti take control of the dire situation. But none of that is true. Maya looks ti be doing far better now than when she was on that kettamine crap. I mean her legs were all twisted in and could hardly move.
Now she is swimming in a pool and playing piano. I don’t know what kind of justice you think the courts are going to be giving out here.
@@carpenterjoe6763she straight up said in the documentary some days are better than others. They probably only filmed days she was doing well.
From CPS to John's hopkins Drs and staff all the way to the judge WTF!! In a way this documentary is some form of justice. But it's not enough. May Beata rest in peace. ❤❤❤
This crushed me in so many ways, I have never cried like this through a movie ever in my life until now. I understand on a VERY small scale the frustrations of what happened as I have had similar experience when i was younger involving a rare, chronic pain to nerves in my brain causing temporary blindness, numbness, motor function issues, imbalance and endless excruciating pain. THE HURDLES they put us through... But to lose your mother in the process... and the sheer lack of remorse afterword, reflected in the legal proceedings that are still ongoing is just appalling, disgusting and dehumanizing :( I wish, with all my heart that I could reach through the screen and embrace them all... I cant even Imagine the pain they have all gone through, every single member of that beautiful family. If there are anyway to support them through the legal proceedings we need to know, I would back this with all my heart for sure.
EDIT:
I am EXTREMELY happy to hear that this family got the JUSTICE they deserve!!! Huge Victory and I imagine they feel like they can breath and relax now. I am so happy for them :D
Something similar happened to me. I have a rare condition called mitochondrial disease. I am tube fed and very skinny and small for my age. When I was 16 a nutritionist that was supposed to help me, rushed treatment and me and my parents denied said treatment because we thought it was too fast and would have bad impacts. So the doctor called CPS on my parents and made false claims that I didn’t actually have any conditions, it was just because my parents didn’t feed me. Nothing came of the case but it’s still sad to see a doctor who’s supposed to help you do something like that
they are the same roaches that aided and abetted in the holocaust...i don't even know why people place any trust in these sub human demons
This happens too often. And its almost always done in a similar way. They almost always go to the ER and some crazy doctor decides to call dcf if the parents disagree with anything he/she says. In one case the mother was still pregnant and they forced labor against her will and then took the baby. It was horrible!
Oh my god！
I cried so much. Take care, Maya.
God this made me tear I’m so angry it didn’t have to go this far
I went doctors for years, I was accused of doctor shopping or just seeking pain meds. No one wanted to believe the amount of pain I was in. Finally after at least 10 years, a doctor figured it out. Thankfully my case is not as severe as Maya’s, poor child I don’t know how she could stand it.
I’m a grandmother & I feel so sorry for this family, I can only imagine watching your child suffer in the most horrific pain ever. It literally steals your life.
A doctor saved your life. Just like these doctors saved Mayas life.
@carpenterjoe6763 Today in Florida, regular primary care physicians are doing ketamine infusion in office for pain and depression. Especially for CRPS. 🤦♀️
@@carpenterjoe6763 🤣 most cringe person on the internet, stop touching your daughter please.
@@axollotmay be his family and children are using for recreation. Thats why this awful evil dude is mocking Maya's all over the comments. 😂😂😂😂 220M justice served for Maya❤❤❤ Dr Kirk Patrick saved Maya not that false imprisonment hospital. She was able to enjoy life again.
I want to thank everybody who put this together for us to watch. It is the best documentary that everybody should watch. I watched it and broke down in tears. My heart broke for them 😭😭. I’m angry for them and I don’t even know them. How do we allow systems to be easily be abused by heartless power-hungry human beings like this!! This family along with many others that were in similar situation need their voices heard!!
Im trying to make sure what cps has put me and my through is al public. There is no justice in juvenile court.
Sadly this is the reality for my family. My brother is serving a life sentence on a wrongful conviction. His son (my nephew) fell with his Mom from stroller to concrete at a year old, & was dropped off with my brother the following day. My nephew had a stroke, caused by the brain bleed (swelling/subdural hematoma) from the fall the day before. Because he was the last person with my nephew, my brother lost rights to his child, and CPS came after him, he has been in prison for 9 years. The court said “abusive head trauma.” Fortunately the CA innocence project is helping with his case, but not everyone is so lucky. It has been agonizing for him and for our family. They can kidnap your child and your life and there’s not a damn thing you can do! DCFS/CPS, the medical system, and our flawed judicial system needs a total overhaul!
Anyone who hasn’t seen it yet, watch it now. Great documentary but it’s brutal and heartbreaking
As a pain patient THANK YOU for covering the story for those that are in pain going to a pain management clinic is the worst thing a patient can do something needs to be done and I hope that the new rules in 2022 where the CDC has admitted making mistakes in connection with individuals that are in pain get listen to this case I think it’s going to be a game changer
Ironic that they accused the mother of child abuse when it was them who were the abusers.
One of em even had records
Ahh between dad and hospital maya is coming great. Mom and that ketamine doctor were both quacks and would have killed that poor girl.
Unintentionally but still. Major issues that ever resulted in her hanging herself. That is an issue.
@@carpenterjoe6763she couldn’t take it anymore! How could you blame the victim she suffered from depression because she wasn’t allowed to contact her own daughter
@@shaikha206 never has a suicide been liable to anyone but the one who committed suicide.

This definitely needs to be shared around the world to show how corrupt the system is and to expose the corrupt ones in the system
welcome to amarika, if it is not c0rrupt, it wouldn't be amarika.
This documentary also reveals that the Department of Child and Family Services have way too much power, parents should never be separated from their children for doing what they believe was the right thing to do.
Exactly So corrupted it’s disgusting
Especially when a MEDICAL DOCTOR is the one who told them to do it. It's not like they found something random on the Internet.
As someone who lives in Venice, FL and my children go to the same All Children’s Hospital in St. Pete this hit me hard , a must watch.
I just watched documentary,I couldn’t control my tears 😢this is so cruel hope family gets justice..
I couldn’t even finish watching this 😭as a mother it was too much to handle & I hope and pray someone is held accountable
I’m a nurse and when it’s something this big, it’s our job and we are trained to always advocate for the patient. We should always initially be on the patient’s side. I’ve had tiger moms and I’ve felt their wrath in the hospital, but I also know they are scared because they have no control over their child’s condition at that moment in time (patience is key in a hospital). I feel for this mother. I feel for the daughter.
One of the best movies I have seen. Love the Kowalski family for being so strong. Hopefully they will get the justice.

Yes good ole dad. I can’t get behind mom unfortunately for many reasons. But maya doing great now.
Ironically, it was the father who gave the fatal blow to the mother before she killed herself! He had a choice to side with the court and the volunteers!
I saw this the weekend it came out and i still havent been able to get it out of my mind. Many prayers go out to the family and their fight against the system right now
The ruling in this case set a precedence. A good one and it favors parents of child patients. So sad that Maya's mother is not here to witness this ruling, but happy to know her family got justice for her. ❤
If she hadn't died, no one would have brought this case to light. This cruel and deformed human society always trades the lives of good people for profit.
Praying for this family and all the other families who suffered! May God bring them healing and no one else goes through this!
My ❤ goes out to this family & all the families who suffered under this system. After fighting my own legal battles against injustices I know the toll & the fortitude needed to hold them accountable for the harm inflicted not just for what they do to you but everyone else 🙏🏼 God Bless their Mother for NOT signing that case plan & sadly having to take her own life so her daughter wouldn’t suffer another day🙏🏼

My heart goes out to this family. A beautiful family at that. Im here in Florida waving a hand. Much love and respect to you guys. Stay strong.
First of all thank you for putting this documentary together.
Horrible to see how the system braking up families. This happens every day. Every day children are placed out of of house. Because the child protection service think they can.
Some parents can’t fight the system and ending up mental sick. Terrible.
I hope many people see the documentary.
And understand how things can end up.
Be strong Maya
Very powerful documentary.if you are uncertain as to watch or not ..i say it needs to be watched by everybody .But be prepared to be angry and sad at the same time ..the simple fact that this family hashad no justice up to this point is just ridiculous.and the simple fact some of the people and judges in these cases are not in jail themselves is awful
Would like them to do a pt2.. The conclusion of Maya’s case obviously but also an exposé on the privatization of healthcare and the profits that are creating these sorts of situations.
Privatization of the prison system in American is another one.. More prisoners, more money.
The military industrial framework’s another.. More war means more bombs means more tax payers money 💰
Americans turned into one big racket!! It terrifying
Justice for Maya, her mother and family!!! Thank Netflix.
I’ve seen some multiple documentaries in my life but not one of them has had hit me as hard as this one… I am completely disgusted by how evil, manipulative and heartless people can be. I wish nothing but very bad things upon them!! … and I wish nothing but love, health and happiness for the Kowalski family. Beata is Maya’s guardian angel now 🪽 What a heartbreaking story…
This was the best documentary I've ever seen. One that will stay with me a long time. I wish the absolute best for Maya and her family and hope they are able to move on from this trauma. As for the hospital billing the insurance with the very diagnosis they were accusing the mother of lying about - I believe as long as the patient is classified as an inpatient (inpatient status in a hospital) they can bill "possible, probable, rule out, and differential" diagnoses as if they were final diagnoses or definitive diagnoses. This isn't the case for outpatient billing, only inpatient. Shouldn't be that way but it is.
Maybe they CAN, so that they can get their money from the insurance company, but it DOES prove that they didn't disagree with the diagnosis, nonetheless.
This happened to a man,in Florida same Hospital ,he was put in Jail for 70 years he accused of child abusing his son as a baby had a brittle bone disease which caused him broken bones,yes he is still in Jail in Florida I even spoke with his family member this isn't right at all ,I have been following Maya 's story Justice for them all
This was one of the most heart breaking documentaries I have ever seen. I am a mother to a daughter who is Maya’s age. We had our run-ins with medical staff for various issues but ultimately the outcome was positive for us. I had no idea of the evil that could have happened. If the family reads this please know your story was sincerely tragic but has touched so many. I wish nothing but Justice for you all. Thank you to Netflix for highlighting such atrocities in our health”care” system. Godspeed.
I cried like a baby. Heartbreaking.
I JUST finished watching this documentary with my mom a few seconds ago and i was sobbing HARD.
be strong Maya & family 😢❤
I just finished watching this documentary and I am just speechless and what upsets me or I should say one of the many things that upset me is that the children services is privatized in Florida that is just Ludacris and it makes sense why they do what they do it’s all about money. May the mother rest in peace and hopefully Maya can grow up and try to have as best as a life as she possibly can.
This shook me to my core and broke my heart. I pray this family gets the peace and justice it deserves, just as much as every other family that has been in a similar situation.
I’ve heard of a lot of cases like this. There was even one on Dr. Phil. What are we supposed to do? These hospital are making you afraid of taking your child there.
So very very true. What can we do?!
This case makes me so sad and angry at the same time. Having experienced health system's injustice where our whole family had to suffer I'm so sick of so many doctors' incompetence. There need to be more strict rules when finishing the medical educations. It's not enough as it is. There are too many people wanting to be doctors for so many wrong reasons. So many are not even close to recognising symptoms and being good at their job which can ruin people's lives even more than the actual illness. I wish Maya and her family to finally find peace and be able to move on as soon as possible. I felt so much pain while watching this that brought up all the bad experiences and memories we had to go through as a family...
I have just watched this Doku and I have just been tearing up. I am so Angry and shocked . How can we help this people? Someone say do something we will support.
This is called "medical kidnapping". Ppl need to remember and use this term. It helps illustrate just how criminal this is.
You have to watch this. I am still completely shocked about what’s going on in America.
Not only in America.
I can’t stop crying!! Jesus!! What they did to the families is just pure evil. How could these demons still go on their day to day lives, knowing that they destroyed so many families
I pray Jesus gives them strength and comfort
Thank you for shedding light on this. 🙏
If my daughter was sick and the doctor came in and said I was a suspect and to leave that the state had custody, they better call swat. It’s not gonna be good. And I’m willing to die on that hill I stand on💯
Watched it very good documentary I would watch it again it was a tear jerker
This is insane 💔💔💔😭😭😭😭 I cried the whole time!!!!
This made me cry 😢😢😢
I feel so sorry what happened to this beautiful family 😢
To anyone saying that the mother overreacted, shame on you! For victim blaming. And I am sure maya would not have been released as soon she was if the mother was still alive. Those judge’s have no heart, feelings or sense of humanity.
I watched a few days ago and I cried like I have never cried with any documentary
I’ve heard this is really nicely done and impactful. Looks like it would be worth the watch
Worth watching…
@@Dany_Stormborn award winning producers OF Harry and Megan lol.
This hits home bcs I was a victim of the medical system myself, they denied me care and sent me in palliative care to *die there just bcs they couldn't put a diagnosis to what was happening to me. I flew to another country and saved my life but lost so much money, lost 2 years of my life in and out of hospitals , lost my social life and so on. I am perfectly healthy today but that time they just sent me home to *die.
Maya I hope you will see this someday. Watching the story of you and your family just ripped my my heart out, I just cannot believe how these monsters could be so cruel. That so called doctor should be in jail. Please know that I am always praying for you and your family. There are so many wonderful people that I &know, that are praying and sending blessings to your family. Keep fighting!❤
Muy recomendable verlo
No mother or child should ever go through this.Shame on those doctors and nurses and corrupted healthcare system…heart breaking
It broke my heart 😢a lot
Don’t forget the judge, he is equally to be blamed for what unfolded after the Judge denied mom and maya to meet or at least hug each other after so many days. Entire system in US looks so terrible & inhumane. Really gutted!
Thank you for sharing your story ❤
OmG! This documentary broke my heart. I felt Beata's frustration and Im sorry about what happened to her. Sooo heartbreaking..huggss to the Kowalkis.
I just finished watching this docu from Malaysia via Netflix and it is both shocking and heart wrenching to see how this family has been torn apart by the systems that are supposed to do the opposite. It is rather naive to believe that all the established systems involved are there to protect a child. The most compelling was the ability of the producers to capture the expressions and sounds of anguish of the Kowalskis. I will be waiting for 11 September 2023 for the trial on the Kowalski's case. Keeping the Kowalskis in my prayers. Dear Kowalskis, don't quit just yet. Remember David who fought the mighty Goliath?
These corporations are out of control, and should be punished when they commit these crimes against humanity. From the FDA on down, they should be jailed when they commit these kind of crimes.
God bless you, Kowalskis for the way you've fought and continue to do so. May you be blessed with that everlasting peace in your family. I pray God continues to protect and guide you
I watched this last night - this was gut wrenching, how can a Dr have so much power to take children away from her mother, this same Dr reeked havoc on so many families looking for help for their children. That hospital needs to held accountable for the damage they've done. A mother took her life because she felt she wasn't good enough to care for her child..... I hope this family and many others have justice served come Sept 2023, it can't on any longer
This was such a tragically heartbreaking story,💔💔💔💔💔 but I pray fervently that something good will come out of it 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. I will be keeping this family in mind when September comes around...please, SUE the pants off that hospital, as well as this awful state!
RIP to her mother Beata,🌹 fly high Angel 😇💝 🕯️
Sending lots of love & hugs to y'all, from Ocala FL
Probably the saddest documentary that I have seen! I was crying all the time i feel so bad.
Teary eyed while watching this documentary. The Doctor and her team should be held accountable for the death of the mother and the trauma it caused to the daughter. It’s just unbelievable…
This is just insane! Hope they got the justice they deserve!
There was 100% also an element of prejudice against the mother's culture and for being Polish. Eastern European women can be extremely direct, especially when it comes to the safety of their kids. I believe the hospital staff were insulted and taken aback by how direct she was. Maya's weight also caused suspicion. The evil social worker Cathi in the documentary mentioned how she believed Maya was improving in the hospital because she was gaining weight. What fat Americans don't understand is that it's very normal for Eastern European kids to be stick skinny. I'm Lithuanian and I had stupid teachers in elementary school try to tell me I had an eating disorder because I was as thin as Maya. What they don't understand is that that's just how our bodies work. That 100000% also played a role.
