I wonder about that too. If she had called the nurses line, as she said she did, and told them he was vomiting, and had stomachache, diarrhoea but was still feeling constipated, wouldn't they have wanted to examine him?So here's the thing....I'm not a mom. I've never had children.
If what Tee is saying is true (and I have to take that with a grain of salt), what she is describing is a child in a lot of pain and very sick. He should have been home, in bed, or curled up on the couch watching TV and trying to get through whatever was going on.
If I was in the presence of a child who had everything going on as she described, we would have hunkered down together and I would have done everything I could to make him feel better and get well. And if he was truly constipated and vomitting - WE WOULD HAVE GONE TO EMERG! We wouldn't be driving around trying to buy a bike. OMG!
Her description of his ailments and what they did on the Monday is the same as her saying he cut his foot on Saturday and then going on a hike with a sore wounded foot on Sunday. Actually it's worse. Constipation and vomiting are indicative of an obstruction and I've had that. It is beyond painful and if not dealt with quickly can cause death.
So what was really going on with Gannon? Was he really sick or did she MAKE HIM SICK?
I'm beyond angry now. I knew this was going to get worse.
MOO
Those are serious symptoms, in a young child, and could be dangerous to ignore. JMO
