🎙️ Stroke of Silence – Episode 10: Fighting the Tide

By Malini Amaladoss

When we finally began to see progress, the system said it was enough.

In this episode, I share what happened when my husband was discharged from rehab before he was ready —

how our appeal for more therapy was denied,

how third-party decision-makers we never met determined his fate,

and how I was left asking the most painful question:

Who is truly advocating for the patient?

We were sent home with tools —

but what we needed was time.

This isn’t just about our family.

It’s about every person who has felt powerless in the face of a system

designed to serve paperwork before people.
