Sue describes the experience of being ignored as a person (nurses and physicians would talk to each other as though she were not present) and of being "handled" as an inanimate object because she was unable to move any muscles except to blink. She was fully alert, however. Because she was paralyzed, attendants did not realize that her sensory system was fully intact and that she experienced considerable discomfort from a rough venipuncture or from lying on a wrinkled bed sheet.
