A 79-year-old Massachusetts woman had to be taken to the hospital with her mattress and have it surgically removed after extreme neglect. She sadly passed away.
Three people are facing charges in connection with the horrific death of Dinora Cardoso. Dinora was found suffering from extreme neglect when EMT's arrived at her home on May 17th, 2023 after a call from her daughter Eva Cardosa.
First responders say "Dinora was found covered in cockroaches, feces and bedbugs". Her condition was so bad she was literally "stuck to her bed and had to be taken to the hospital on the mattress where it was surgically removed from her body". Sadly Dinora passed away 2 days later from necrotizing fasciitis and sepsis.
Her nurse, Lisa Hamilton, who is one of the trio being charged in her death, reported she was "clean and well cared for only days before her death".
Officials say her daughter (Eva) collected up to $140,000 while caring for Dinora although her diabetes went completely untreated and she was left to languish in squalor. Her granddaughter, Kyla Cardosa, also served as Dinora's health care proxy. The three women allegedly billed MassHealth for services that were never provided to this poor woman.
Now all three are facing serious charges in connection with her death.
53-year-old Eva Cardosa is facing Manslaughter, caretaker neglect, larceny and medical fraud.
31-year-old Kyla Cardosa is facing catetaker
neglect, medical fraud and larceny
