John Springer, 59, had no known health issues when he was diagnosed in November 2021 with COVID-19. After being transferred from his local hospital in Kansas to a medical center in Oklahoma, doctors — without John’s consent or the consent of his family — treated him with remdesivir, fentanyl and morphine and put him on a ventilator, where he spent the final 17 days of his life.

In November 2021, 59-year-old truck driver and Kansas native John Springer was enjoying life with his wife of 31 years, Peggy Rice Springer, and their seven children.
“He was an amazing husband, an amazing father,” Peggy told The Defender. “He worked hard six days a week, took very good care of his family. He was an honest, hardworking, taxpaying American guy. He had so much faith in God. That was important to him and all of us.”
John and Peggy and seven children, three of whom were John’s stepchildren. “But he stepped right in and took over and did not treat them any differently than he treated the ones we had together,” Peggy said.
John was also very involved in the rodeo life of his youngest daughter, who had just graduated from high school at the time.
On Nov. 1, 2021, Peggy and John began experiencing cold symptoms, which were soon diagnosed as COVID-19.
With the symptoms lingering, they sought medical attention on Nov. 7, 2021. Three days later, John was admitted to Pratt Regional Medical Center in Pratt, Kansas.
Less than a month later, on Dec. 2, 2021, and after being transferred to Oklahoma State University (OSU) Medical Center in Tulsa, John was dead.
According to Peggy, her husband had no prior indications of poor health.
“He had to take a physical once a year and he passed every time with flying colors,” she said. “He absolutely took very good care of himself.”
In an interview with The Defender, Peggy detailed her husband’s ordeal in both hospitals where he was treated, which included the administration of drugs such as remdesivir and morphine without his consent. She shared medical documentation with The Defender to corroborate her story.
‘He never came home’
Peggy said she and John felt “very, very sick” in early November 2021.
“I couldn’t walk. I couldn’t breathe. I could hardly eat, couldn’t pick a glass up to take a drink. And he just said he felt like he couldn’t get enough air.”
They drove to Pratt Regional Medical Center, the hospital where, according to Peggy, “we had doctored at for 30-some years, and had our babies.” Given the close relationship they had with their doctor, they trusted the hospital.
When they arrived, the first question the staff asked them was, “Are you vaccinated?” They answered “No.”
The hospital put the Springers in separate rooms. They hooked Peggy up to IVs to hydrate her and performed chest x-rays, CT scans and blood work on both of them.
“Everything looked good,” so they were discharged and told to return the next day for treatment with monoclonal antibodies, Peggy recalled.
The next day, Nov. 8, 2021, Peggy received the antibodies — but John was separated from her and placed on oxygen because his oxygen was too low, according to the nurses.
John was sent home with an oxygen tank the same day, but by Nov. 10, 2021, his oxygen level remained low.
“He was like, ‘I just don’t feel like I’m getting enough,’” Peggy recalled. “And so, our youngest daughter took him back to the hospital.”
The hospital wouldn’t let Peggy’s daughter go in, so she sat in the parking lot by herself until about 11 p.m., when staff informed her they were going to keep her father overnight and give him more oxygen, so she should go home.
“He never came home,” Peggy said. “They sent him to Oklahoma the next day, against our wishes. He did not want to go. I did not want him to go. But the ER doctor — not our personal doctor — told me that if I didn’t allow him to be sent, then I wanted him to die.”
“They say things like that, and they make you feel like it’s your fault that they’re there and that they’re sick,” she added. “And I know that I didn’t do it, but at the same time, I feel guilty for sending him to the hospital.”
