Read this powerful, heart-wrenching story about Talia.  Mike Baker's series, "Quantity of Care," uncovers ugly things at Swedish Cherry Hill Hospital in Seattle.  Mike writes honestly and sensitively about Talia, and The Seattle Times visual team did an incredible job using Talia's art to depict the story.  It's remarkable to us that Talia illustrated her own demise from the grave. Please read and share!  Naomi, Talia's mom, also weighed in on the subject in her op-ed, in which she gave a scathing review of the medical system that killed Talia.  Subsequent Investigations by the Washington State DOH revealed the dreadful "care" Talia received.
