Haida elder in 'extreme' appendicitis pain was allegedly released from B.C. hospital without treatment

An Indigenous woman with long brown hair wears a pink flowered tank top and stands in the sunshine on a front lawn.

Penny Kerrigan was flown to Terrace, B.C., because of severe stomach pain. She was allegedly discharged with just regular Tylenol for the discomfort and without a diagnosis of her appendicitis, something she ascribes to anti-Indigenous bias.
