Bad Medicine: The Stories They Never Wanted Told
They weren’t allowed in the room as their loved ones died. Now their families are telling what happened.
Dear PERK Family,
At PERK, we have always believed one thing above all: families belong together, especially in the moments that matter most. Parents and loved ones have the right to be informed, to ask questions, and to be present when decisions are made about someone they love.
For too many families during the pandemic, that right was taken away. Hospital doors closed. Phone calls replaced bedside visits. And families were left with questions no one would answer.
A new film, Bad Medicine, from filmmaker Mikki Willis, gives those families a voice.

These are stories you will not hear on the evening news. They are told by the people who lived them: husbands, wives, sons, daughters, and parents who are still searching for answers.

The Hearing Could Kill This Issue For Five Years, Come to San Diego. The CA Senate Health Committee's medical exemptions hearing is tomorrow in San Diego, but is one sided and stacked against us with AAP, CDPH, and Medical Board representatives. Watch PERK's video, prepare your comment, and join the rally after. We are counting on you California.
