PLEASE HELP!!!
I took my child (down syndrome & suffered from duodenal atresia at birth) to hospital several months ago due to vomiting and at the time it was diagnosed as severe constipation. About a month ago she was still being sick and was losing weight at quite an alarming rate so after trying to get help from various sources e.g Doctor, health visitor, NHS in the previous months back to hospital I returned.
She has now been diagnosed with Reflux and is on medication but even though the dosage has been increased several times she still not fully cured. The Doctor got in touch with social services and yesterday our child was taken into foster care. He says that the condition of reflux wouldn't result in so much weight loss. He stated she was a complicated little girl and yet he informs the social services that we are neglecting her. I've asked for help on several occasions over the past few months and now they're saying its US who are to blame. Our Christmas has been ruined and we're just amazed that we are getting accused of neglecting her. NO ONE IS LISTENING TO THE FACTS!!!!
She was vomiting up to 3/4 of her meals but yet he says there's no known medical reason for her weight loss. We are at an all time low and don't know where to turn for help!!!
There's also been a lot of neglect from the hospital, running out of medicine, asking to send clean clothes in because they have none, left to sit in her own vomit for hours on end. My Husband is at his wits end and with him suffering from depression is it an all time low. WE'VE BEEN WRONGLY DONE BY AND ARE PAYING A VERY HIGH PRICE FOR A DOCTORS INCOMPETENCE AND NOW HAVE OUR YOUNGEST CHILD TAKEN FROM US. THE NHS HAS made the mistake but won't admit it. The evidence we've got and when presented to them they gave no answers as they know they are wrong on all accounts. We are in desperate need of help from someone!!!
BEWARE OF THE NHS in WIGAN!
