Cardiac Arrest - New Amsterdam

Kamala McIntyre-Frome was adopted by Doctors Ignatius Frome and Martin McIntyre when she was three from Bangladesh.

When Kami was nine her fathers adopted four more children: Sameera, Harper, Raffi and Saleem, their family became whole.

With two psychiatrists for parents Kami finds it impossible to hide her feelings, she struggles with her mental health after being bullied horrendously by those she called her friends.

After collapsing at home, fifteen year old Kami is rushed to New Amsterdam, where her dad works, she is treated for sepsis and an overdose and diagnosed with psychosis, PTSD, paranoia and depression.

Kami endures the bullying, pandemic, illnesses, family issues and mental health feeling alone. When she gets herself stuck in a difficult situation she finds she has noone to turn to having pushed everyone away from her.

When Kami was six she was diagnosed with lupus, FND, fibromyalgia and cardiomyopathy. Being on a cocktail of medications from a young age made her feel strange.

Being autistic, with sensory processing disorder, oppositional defiance disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and dyslexia adds further fuel to the fire that is her life.

Read as Kami finds the path into adulthood rocky and when she falls for a certain patient of her dad's she finds herself in more danger.
