It started when I went to the Seattle Central College Disability Support Services on Monday 6-11-18 at 9:00 AM to get my accommodations because I am a student with a disability that needs accommodations to be able to succeed in my classes like every other student. I met with Al Souma the disability Counselor/Faculty and Cebrina Chavez Program Coordinator in their office.

I asked nicely for Al Souma to check his email that would explain why I was meeting with him on Monday 6-11-18 and the accommodations that I wanted so I could succeed so Al Souma "asked me to explain the email" so I did and said I would please like an accommodation letter with the accommodations that I requested and all of sudden Al Souma got close up to my face like our noses literately could of been touching each other that's how close he got and Al Souma said "I am not going to accommodate you what you gonna do about it" I almost fell out of my chair and I could tell he looked like he might be reaching for a weapon so I told him I am going to security and all of a sudden I had major breathing problems and so I left the Disability Support Services office trying to get help looking for security but no security guard was at their post.

I had to walk up to the 4th floor to the administration office to get help all the way from the 1st floor and when I got to the administration office where the presidents of the colleges are and "I asked for help please call security and explained Al Souma might be armed and call 911 I cant breath please help me" the secretary tried to reach security and told me "no I am not calling 911" I could feel I was about to die I was fainting and I kept saying "help call 911 I can't breath" and that went on for 2 to 3 minutes that the secretary kept saying "I'm not calling 911" then Angelique Odom Executive Assistant to President Sheila Edwards Lange Seattle Central College walks out of the corner and says "Well I guess you should just call 911" as if she did not care and I am still saying "help me" and no one is helping me I am still about to run out of breath and pass out everyone was just staring.

When the secretary called 911 she did not really want to answer their questions once so ever and they never followed protocol by having the 911 people hear my breathing issue. She was trying every power she could not to answer their questions. She hung up the phone I am still asking for "help I can't breath" it took a while for security to come mean while everyone in the administration office just staring at me like it is all funny and no one even asked me hey do you need an inhaler, paper bag or water they just stood their as I was slowing dying away. When security came he tried to ask me what was going on and wanted to call my parents and we where able to get my dad on the phone at first and he said he would be there soon.

The Fire Department came and said your breathing levels are really high and the other scary thing was the fire department was trying to make up every excuse of why I was breathing so heavily and did not want to hear my side of the story "I tried to explain to them about my disability, also that I am highly allergic to almonds and that I feel scared for my life and that there is a dangerous man on campus possibly armed with a weapon." Plus neither did they asked me if I needed an inhaler, paper bag or water. They did not even really want to do their jobs I tried my best to asked for a report they said "you can't get one" now in my mind as I am still having breathing issues I am thinking to myself I never heard of that before not being able to get a summary of the report. I felt like it was over for me if my dad did not get there because no one was trying to help. The fire Department never did their jobs correctly neither did the school where I almost died which is wrong.
