You are absolutely correct; whoever decided your child should not receive treatment was criminal in their actions, which were morally, as well as ethically, void. My heart goes out to you. Two of my five children have disabilities and I have chosen to be an advocate, a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves in the education field. I am so sorry for your loss.
The doctors told me to have an abortion when I was 5 months pregnant.... Noah is now 8 months old and thriving... doctors make me so angry.... I have a video of Noah on my page if you wish to see it
I am so sorry for your loss. I teach special needs kids and have four miracles myself. I was told my boys would not survive and because I was allowed to make the decisions they are fine and healthy today.
A DNR order without consent is not legal. Since the child was too young to make that decision, the parents are the ones to make it. Since you did NOT tell them DNR, the hospital can, and should be, sued. If the staff thought it was for her best interest, there's always someone out there that turns around and says, "Wait a minute, there is another way!" and that is usually one of the doctors or a parent in the medical field.
This is so wrong. This child should have been given every life saving aid the medical profesion could come up with. God has given us theese tools to be used. I agree with DNR on elderly people or other instances where the paitient is stable minded or the parents of a suffering with out daught child. If the paitients life is of value to others they should be given every oppertunity to get better and live.
Ive been told of a great-grandfather I had who was extremely miserable with the fact his body and mind were done with life yet he was repeatedly kept alive almost artificially by doctors beyond his expressed wishes. Its just not fair what happened to your family. I hope ur alrite. Your baby and ur family are beautiful from what ive seen
What a beautiful family full of so much love!! I can say with all confidence that Annie lived her life surrounded by the love that you had shown her and that is the only thing she ever knew. RIP Annie, what a beautiful angel she is.
Annie's a beautiful little girl, & she will now forever be your family's angel, as my little Bryan is mine. The doctors had NO right to decide without your consent. Bryan had no eyes, was deaf, severely epileptic (every 20 minutes had to be resuscitated), heart in the right side of his chest, no mouth at all, or nose...i chose to let God take him. He passed while i was cradling him. But for Annie. I hope some resolution comes to you in time, by God, & legally. *warm hugs & love*
I'm confused. So she went to the hospital and the medical staff made a unilateral decision to withhold support? Or did I misunderstand? If that's the case.... doesn't there have to be some sort of court proceeding? Or can the doctors get a judge to sign off on something like that without giving the parents notice? I sure hope I just misunderstood....
right now baby Isaiah at the Stollery Hospital in Edmonton is up for a fight. The doctors want to shut of the respirator, but the parents are taking the hospital to court. Isaiah is only about 90 days and his parents are hoping to extend his life to at least another 90 days....everybody is praying....Annie is beautiful....I'm so sorry..
Baby Isaiah was taken off the respirator after his parents felt that it was time and there was no longer any improvements. He died shortly after in the arms of his parents. His life touched many people and now his mom is setting up her site to help others.
@LiveLaughLove8489 you can google Isaiah James May , his parents are Isaac and Rebecka May and he spent some time at the Stollery Hospital in Edmonton, Alberta.
I have disabilities. I was born in June of 1993 & diagnosed in May of 1994 with Hemiplegia Cerebral Palsy & Russell Silver Syndrome. My boyfriend has Down Syndrome & Autism.
@birds16ful I am an Aspie, I'm glad someone like me can have a relationship. Your birthday is coming up, happy seventh birthday. I think you're a little young to use the term "boyfriend," but times do change and I may just be a little backward.
Thank you for making people aware that the medical community is not our friend. Thank you for sharing the life of this precious little girl, how sweet and beautiful. May God bless you as you continue to celebrate Annie and educate others!!
The medical profession are all to keen on playing God. How dare they deprive this little girl of her right to life. How dare they make the judgement on the quality of her life. How dare they decide not to assist her to live. It's about values and morals and money. That's the kind of world in which we live. I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing Annie with us and I pray she is safe and healthy in the arms of Jesus. x
I am so sorry for your heartbreaking loss. My daughter has partial trisomy 13, and it breaks my heart to think there are people, including medical professionals, who think our perfect babies don't deserve life. They may have disabilities, but they are perfect in our eyes and the eyes of God. God bless you and your family.
I am so sorry for your loss .... I hope the hospital has paid for it ... I know it won't bring your beautiful baby back, but at least make them aware of what is going on with the staff at the hospital.... .. God Bless you and your family .... RIP Annie :)
My Daughter as Monosomy 18 and is Annie to...I am sorry for your loss...
