Ajouté : 2026-05-18

[00:00:00]Hi, this is Sherry Veronica. This is a 53-year-old deaf, mute person and his name is Malcolm.

[00:00:11]And he likes sleeping outdoors and [clears throat] he likes digging into the earth and he likes eating his own um in in BM.

[00:00:26]He he he eats his own feces. And he's not too much liking of water. He doesn't like to bathe.

[00:00:37]They call him a hermit. And there are a whole lot of problems with Malcolm. Now, the female that was taking care of him hit the stress, just the stress of taking care of Malcolm has worn on her.

[00:00:54]It's something that takes a toll on you as a caretaker. It is physical and it is mental. And he has brought her down. She is not herself. Her body is weak from taking care of him. She took him to the psychiatric hospital for you know, screening. You know how they do a screening. And they said they have no place for him and she said, "Well, I have no place for him."

[00:01:27]He's not my my child. He is related but not my child and I have I cannot I can no longer take care of him.

[00:01:38]And they were telling and she told them that she's going to leave him in their professional care. And they told her if she leaves, they're going to call the police on her and accuse her and have her arrested for abandonment.

[00:01:55]The people at the psychiatric hospital, the intake area, told her that if she left him there, they were going to call the police and have her arrested for abandonment. Now, he is 53 years old.

[00:02:13]He has been diagnosed for being mentally Um, I don't know [clears throat] if you could sit here or if he's He's He's He's definitely able. He's not there He's totally not there, especially since I told you what he likes to eat and what he does, sleeping outside and digging into the moral and the ground area. He is definitely gone. Gone. So, when she told them she's leaving and the threat came, she called her attorney and her attorney said to her, "He's not your child.

[00:02:49]Go on home. If anything comes out of it, they're going to take it to court." So, she left and she went home.

[00:02:56]But, Malcolm is not the only one. It's hush-hush. And Malcolm has been at the facility before and he was injured because he doesn't talk and he doesn't hear. He's He just He doesn't hear. He doesn't talk. And while he was there before, he was SA'd and he was at the hospital and that area that area was really, you know, it was messed It was It was a mess. So, it may maybe more than one person did it to him, but they don't want to take him. The people at the psychiatric hospital, they they do not want to take him because it's so much It's He's such a problem. He doesn't even bathe himself. You have to bathe him.

[00:03:46]Okay, so he is a real strain on not only the system, but if he were with a family member, is actually too much.

[00:03:57]It's actually too much, but I needed to put this up because here it is that someplace that should be taking him in, a place that is suited for a Malcolm, are they are threatening threatening someone with an arrest with an arrest because their health has suffered.

[00:04:23]The health of the person has suffered under the weight of taking care of Malcolm. Okay, so I wanted you to know that. The people that were talking to me about this, they wanted to you to know that that that's how it goes in Barbados when when you no good deed, I was saying to them, no good deed goes unpunished.

[00:04:46]No good deed goes unpunished. And when the backs of people are are broken, and they they can't do It's not that they don't want to. They they just cannot do it any longer, then the system turns against them and threaten them with arrest.

[00:05:05]They're going to call the police and have her arrested?

[00:05:10]That was crazy talk.

[00:05:12]That was crazy talk, okay?
