Robert H. @Rwhobbs198 May 9 Take Care of Maya is an absolutely heart-wrenching documentary that’s difficult to watch at times, yet incredibly important. The film dives into the emotional devastation surrounding Maya Kowalski’s medical battle and the fallout that followed, creating a story that feels tragic from beginning to end. More than anything, it serves as a powerful piece of awareness about rare illness, family separation, and the human cost of systems failing people in crisis. It’s emotional, frustrating, and deeply painful—but also impossible to ignore. This one hurts, but it’s absolutely worth watching. See more Patti E @Pajama_patti Feb 23 BS. Her mom horribly committed suicide and Maya is obviously better. I don’t believe the family. Greed ensues. Poor children are abused everyday and this film is irrelevant and personally I found it money fueled. See more Urvashi L @RT00514518 Jan 27 A very overwhelming documentary. The hospital is definitely negligent. A sick child should never be kept as a prisoner, away from its parents for so long. My heart goes out to Maya, Jack and Kyle for what they have been through. I can’t imagine what the children with their parent still in prisons are going through. No child should endure this kind of torture by the hospital system. Hospitals are there to save lives, not take lives. See more Parya S @RT92258145 Sep 10 This documentary is extremely aggravating because we all know this is almost exactly how twisted the system is & cant do a thing about it. Theres good people & bad people with child protective services, you never know who youll be dealt. We have these mental institute belonging cat lady Karens like the one here, who either want a child & cant have one so they prey on other people’s children or theyre just plain mentally ill and miserable and search desperately for reasons to be able to get satisfaction by tripping over their power in removing children from their homes. The system also sides with these people because they all work together & the system is overall complete trash. In this situation there was absolutely zero ABUSE sensed from the mother, the ketamin was advised and prescribed by the doctors & the only thing that took the child’s pain away. The mother was not opposed to them using any other method that ensured her child wasnt in pain, they just were mad at her tone which isnt a reason to destroy a child’s life by removing them from their parents because youre weak minded and cant handle an argument with a worried parent, which by the way IS YOUR JOB TO DO. They responses from sally smith and the other doctor after the mother died was absolutely desgusting. You guys are pigs. Pig is cleaner than you. That all being said, it was absolutely selfish of the mother to do that having two children who need her. No doubt there. Shes weak and selfish ahd wrong for that but had she abused her child by overmedicating? See more Laura G @RT80600074 Aug 5 This documentary is egregious sensationalism. It does not merit the label “documentary.” None of the evidence pointing to Maya truly being a victim of medical child abuse was presented, and no education on what this form of abuse entails was presented. The filmmakers should be ashamed of themselves. They have put more children in harms way and have made the job of child protection much harder. See more CAROL R @RT88344529 07/02/2025 This is not unbiased journalism. How is it that in approximately a year, the child went from wheelchair bound and "likely to die" from CRPS, a non-fatal condition, to walking with crutches after receiving only physical therapy. What, loving, caring mother would kill herself at the time her child needed her most. If Beata was such a strong woman, why would she kill herself after being temporarily separated from one child when she had another young child at home who needed her. Seems like there is a lot more to this story. See more Read all reviews
