Take Care of Maya is a documentary directed by Henry Roosevelt that tells the story of Maya, a patient suffering from chronic regional pain who was treated with Ketamine. The treatment involved inducing a five-day coma with Ketamine, a risky procedure that was only being done in Mexico at the time. Despite the potential danger, Maya recovered well after the procedure. However, a year later, Maya was admitted again, and this time, a different nightmare began. She was diagnosed with Munchausen by proxy, and the State of Florida took custody of her. Child protection services in Florida are privatized and have the power to take custody of a child if there is a risk involved.

This led to a legal battle between lawyers, custody battles, and a bureaucratic system in which Maya was caught in the middle. Regardless of who was right or wrong, the young girl was the one who suffered the most. Netflix brings us this chilling documentary that sheds light on certain aspects of the American healthcare system, specifically in Florida. The documentary provides some shocking facts and is a complete story that deserves to be told.

It’s a must-watch for anyone who wants to understand the complexities of this case.
