Question 24 (2 points)

This true story exemplifies which type of discrimination?
In February 2007, Janice Langbehn and Lisa Pond, along with three of their four children, were in Miami, FL to depart on a cruise. Pond collapsed before the cruise departed and was rushed to the hospital. When Langbehn and their children arrived, a JMH social worker told Langbehn she was in an "anti-gay city and state" and required a health care proxy to see Pond. Langbehn had a power of attorney which was faxed to the hospital within an hour of Pond's arrival. However, Langbehn and their 3 young children were kept from Pond’s side for eight hours. Pond slipped into a coma and died without her partner of 18 years or her children by her side. These actions were in line with the laws at the time.
