  Life can change in the blink of an eye - Diane is taken to the ER for a UTI infection


 


 


 A negligent nurse is angry at Diane for peeing on her new shoes and left the BP machine


             on auto and walked away thus tourniqueting her arm for over 40 min


                             when she returned, she said OOPS!!!!!


 




 


    The tourniqueting of her arm cut the circulation of blood and destroyed her arm. 


      The skin immediately started to bubble, and the nurse told Bill to go home. 


 


 Doctors then tells Bill that Diane has Necrotizing Fasciitis and has 48 hours to live, which


  is confirmed to be a blatant lie by UCSF doctors to cover up the nurse's malpractice.


 


The Doctors then demand that she be put on Hospice Terminal Care, where they would                                       EUTHANIZE her with morphine


 


    


NECROTIZING FASCIITIS, commonly Known as "Flesh-Eating Disease" or "Gangrene" is a severe bacterial infection that can progress very quickly after a cut or scrap.



 


Diane's arm puffed up immediately after the nurse took her BP cuff off and then told us to leave after she said "oops". She had NO scraps or cuts on her body at all when admitted. The so-called infection also STOPPED right at the cuff where if it was truly Necrotizing Fasciitis, it would have spread to her lungs and heart in 48 hours like they said.


 


 


It was a made-up diagnosis by the Doctor to protect the nurse from her negligence. The so-called Necrotizing Fasciitis "NEVER" went into her lungs and heart like they said it would and was later proven by UCSF doctors that it was NEVER Necrotizing Fasciitis.


 


     Doctor also knew of a tumor in her stomach and completely hide it from Bill



 


 


 Diane's brother arrived and immediately began to ransack through her private belongings 



  and her private Government Files, he then took her valuable jewelry and files with him.


 



Doctors & Diane's brother keep pressuring Bill to give permission to EUTHANIZE his mom




 


 




Diane's brother suggests that maybe she is still married and her husband can pull the plug


            Diane's brother NEVER officially divorced his Wealthy/Cheating wife


                       Diane was divorced from her husband in 1976



 


                                    Despite all the pressure from her brother to "Get This Going"!!



                  The brother only visited Diane in the hospital 3 times


 


                            Bill refused to give up on his mom


                   Diane gets transferred to 14 Hospitals to save her life


 


            Sutter Heath - Novato Community Hospital

   Diane was in the middle of repairing her roof along with a kitchen and bath renovation,



                           when she unexpectable went into the ER


 


 


       While trying to save his mother's life her house collapsed during a rainstorm


 


 


       Unfortunately, the roofers forgot to cover up the house when a huge rainstorm hit,


       causing MASSIVE DAMAGE and destroying 6 rooms inside of the house


 


 


     Leaving her son to take care of fixing the house while he tries to save her life


 


 


 


                                   Living room destruction


 


 


                                Diane's room destruction


 


 


                                        Roof destruction


 




  The house was immediately RED TAGGED and all work had to STOP, while at the same


      time Bill was fighting for his mother's life with no help from family members


 




  To add to the chaos of the nightmare ordeal the roofer in charge committed suicide


 


  


            Diane finally comes home and her son is elated that he saved her

  After a nurse performed malpractice on Diane resulting in her losing her arm, all the


      doctors said that she had only 48 hours to live but Bill proved them ALL wrong


 


  


 


        Unfortunately, we lost a really good one on this rescue journey of Diane

Bill Breithaupt had the realization that photography and filmmaking were what he wanted to do in life. By age 9 he was enrolled in film classes, and made his first film "This One Will Kill You". The film was screened at the Mill Valley Film Festival.  With a competitive streak ever-present in his character, as well as a high level of energy, Bill was involved in many sports including swim team, soccer and As his skills grew, followed by his trophy collection, he decided to attract the attention of sponsors by filming his incredible tricks. Bills idea worked, and under the sponsorship of such companies as Independent Trucks, Skate Rags Clothing Co, Stylized Sun Glasses and Walker Skateboards, Bill went on to win more skate competitions, bigger trophies and even more sponsors. He then returned to his earlier passion of filmmaking. Apprenticing under the photographer Mike Voorhees in Newport Beach, CA he improved his framing techniques. He studied graphic arts at the Art Institute of So. California, film/audio techniques at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, FL computer animation under Pixar animator Jimmy Hayward at the Academy of Art San Francisco.

He began his career making videos: music, modeling, wedding, corporate and extreme sports, you name it, he has probably caught it on film. None of that compared to the footage he began capturing in 1999 when he was invited to by a friend to attend and film the annual Burning Man Festival held in Black Rock City, Nevada.


What started off as fulfilling a friend’s request for a souvenir video of the event became a passion for Bill. He passed out the edited footage to friends, who passed it to friends, who gave it to their friends,
