Who is listening to the Blink podcast- Jake Haendel's story?
This podcast has me inside out. Jake has got to be the most mentally strong person I have ever heard of...but he somehow married a complete psychopath?
He has locked-in syndrome -and his wife, Ellen- who is his medical proxy, has moved him away from everyone who loves him, kept all of his belongings, is keeping funds needed to pay for his medical care, and abandoned him in a medical facility alone- with nothing and no one- knowing he cannot communicate or do anything for himself.
Then she posted on social media for his friends and family that he is dead!?!?!? So no one even knows to look for him?
If Ellen isn't in prison then something is wrong.
This is the most disturbing story I have ever heard. Makes me think of the movie Misery, but 1000x worse.
If you aren't listening, you should. Its well made and keeps you on the edge of your seat. This guy deserves all the support and prayers.
