When Rachel Waters rushed to be by her mother’s side during her final days, she believed she was doing exactly what hospice care had prepared her for — providing comfort, dignity, and love at the end of life.Instead, she found herself charged with murder.In this emotional and deeply important episode of Miss Understood with Rachel Uchitel, Rachel Waters shares the shocking story of how caring for her dying mother — who was suffering from late-stage cancer and Alzheimer’s — turned into a criminal investigation that threatened the rest of her life.Following hospice guidance, Rachel administered legally prescribed comfort medication intended to ease her mother’s pain during her final hours. But after her mother passed, authorities launched an investigation that ultimately led to Rachel being charged with murder — despite the involvement of medical professionals, hospice protocols, and documented end-of-life care.The charges were eventually dismissed, but not before Rachel endured unimaginable emotional, financial, and personal consequences.Now, Rachel is speaking out and advocating for Marsha’s Law, legislation designed to protect caregivers who follow hospice guidance and administer legally prescribed comfort medications during end-of-life care. Her story highlights a legal gray area that could impact millions of families navigating hospice care every year.Learn more about Rachel’s story and the movement for Marsha’s Law:https://www.marshaslaw.org/Rachel Waters IG: https://www.instagram.com/distinguishedheathen/--- --- ---PLEASE LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE, AND GIVE US A 5-STAR REVIEW!: ratethispodcast.com/missunderstood Become a Patreon Member: https://www.patreon.com/c/MissUnderstoodwithRachelUchitelShop Miss Understood Merch https://missumerch.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Rachel on Instagram!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/racheluchitelnyc/?hl=enFollow Rachel on TikTok! https://www.tiktok.com/@itsracheluchitelExecutive Producer: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠George Carmona Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
