In Knoxville, WLVT reports that a woman named Misty McDaniel has been charged with aggravated neglect of an elderly adult after her 74-year-old, bed-ridden father was admitted to Blount Memorial Hospital in critical condition.

Here are some images showing what severe untreated wounds on an elderly patient might look like in a hospital setting:

Court records reveal the man arrived at the hospital with severe, advanced wounds—some exposing muscle and even bone—and dangerously high blood sugar levels exceeding 600, indicating a failure to manage his diabetes properly.

Here’s an example of typical diabetes management supplies, including blood sugar testing equipment and medication, which authorities found unused at the home:

Police investigated and visited the residence on Mount Olive Road, where McDaniel lived with her husband and father. They discovered a month’s supply of the necessary blood sugar medication that had not been administered to the elderly man.

The incident came to light when the father was brought to Blount Memorial Hospital, where medical staff alerted authorities to his alarming condition.

McDaniel, identified as the primary caretaker alongside her husband, was subsequently taken into custody facing the serious neglect charge.
