2. I feel horrible about what the mom must be going through. |
|
:cry:
Can you imagine having to choose whether or not it is safe to take your child to the hospital? Can you imagine seeing your son die, and not knowing if a different choice could have saved him? :(
I hope she has a lot of friends and family to console her and support her. I'd be broken into pieces for a long, long time if that was me.
May she find peace.

Nobody should be afraid to take their child to the hospital. :(
I wish we had organizations devoted to helping immigrants adjust to society...people who could help in situations like this one.

My mom survived a brain aneurysm in November of 2006. This little boy could have been helped if the paramedics were called. Medical science is here for a reason. I understand her reasons but I would never put my fear before the health of my children or anyone else.
