toy designer Hall of Famer Mark Boudreaux is an unsung hero to diehard Star Wars fans. He designed the fabled Millenium Falcon, considered the most iconic spaceship designed in movie history.
But unlike the Falcon, Boudreaux does not have a crew of heroes on board fighting what is the 68-year-old’s real-life galactic version of the Death Star.
With his wife Judy as his only advocate, Boudreaux is fighting a battle for his life, caught in an ultimate catch-22 of medical protocols that began with a trip on Feb. 5, 2022, to the ER where he tested positive for COVID.
For more than a year since, the Cincinnati native remains on the same ventilator he was placed on last February.
“I barely have the words to describe this atrocity,” David Peters, a staff attorney with Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) told The Epoch Times. Peters said he reviewed the details of Boudreaux’s case after learning how long Bordeaux has been on a mechanical ventilator.
It is a time lapse that appears to contradict every health care standard when it comes to ventilator use—highlighted by a sea of medical records that, at the very least, raise the question of why there were no attempts to wean Boudreaux off the ventilator.
