Off topic GOOD NEWS!

It is not the best news which would be Alexander coming home but it is good news. Alexander is finally going to be placed with my grandma. That means he will be with his sisters. It also means they can't adopt him out to strangers which means they will make more money by letting him come home eventually. Add in that my husband finally got the inheritance he was told about this time last year and we have had a good week. We are moving to a better place because he got so much money. I was able to pay our bills in full for once. We will not have to worry about money for a while even with moving. I am thinking about maybe trading in our van toward something better too. I dunno, it depends on what it would take to fix the problem it has- the speedometer is dead. Not cool. I cannot believe the amount of the check it is more money than I have ever seen at one time in my entire life. It is 2 years worth of take home pay for my husband. Considering he makes 8-9,000 a year take home that isn't much to most people but to us it is a fortune. I will look at the 3 places I liked tonight with hubby and then tomorrow a friend who is a contractor will look at the places and tell me which is the best deal and what kind of work they require. It will be another trailer but heck it will be much much newer and won't need 10,000 in repairs. The 3 places I am looking at cost less than the repairs on this place. I am excited.

I'm so happy for you that you came into the big bucks, that will help out a great deal. You sound so happy and excited I haven't heard that from you in such a long time I'm also glad your grand ma will be taking care of Alexander. My prayers will be that you get your baby back. Good Luck

thanks!!!! We close tomorrow. It will take almost all the money we got but our friend said it was worth double the price so we are going for it.

Go back to the doctor and demand a second opinion. There may not be family history, but I'm sorry any and all tests should be done for his welfare. In fact, if it was my kid, I would be looking right at him and saying "You refuse to do a test on my son because there is no family history you said? Further ado, regardless of family history or not you have to treat any patient that comes in. And here you are endangering my sons life because in my heart I know something is wrong and you are refusing to help me find that problem. How would you feel if this is YOUR kid doctor? Would you want all the tests ran because you know something is wrong? Would you fight for the wellbeing of your child? Because of your actions, I am now demanding a second opinion and considering on turning you over to the medical board." But I worked 5 years in health care, I know the crap they pull, and frankly I dont and refuse to stand by it. When he tries to respond, listen to what he has said then if he tries to say he can treat Alex say "Doctor, I had confidence in you, and you broke that confidence the moment you refused to run tests on my son. How am I going to be sure you wont do this again? How will I know you arent going to mislead me? I'm sorry, but I can't trust you anymore. I need to look out for my children's safety and well being and health just like you would do. Bye." And walk off then get another doctor. But I am the smartalic.... :P I wouldnt turn them over to the board, but the mere threat and you being straight forward lets them know its uncool and not right. Speaking of children, I must go tuck in Dakota now.

Hi Redrose,

I am so sorry about what that darn doc did. I have looked up some things and you are so right about what your meds can do to your baby's bone density while you are pregnant. I am wondering if you can get some information from your rheumie or the specialists that treated you with these drugs about what the affects can be on your child's health during pregnancy while on these and so they can test Alexander for these. Maybe taking these to your lawyer you have during this investigation so he can hand these in during the hearing can help. Also a bone density test??? There is one thing that if you were on Imuran called Pancytopenia can happen or baby's can develop Osteopenia or similar issues due to these meds with the high levels of prednisone you are on too I am just thinking this and then if he has something like this and then you picking him up that would coincide with the fractures???

Just a thought.

Good luck on the new home and paying off your bills

I saw a program on what your going threw, pertty sure it primetime, the child had broken bones I think it was the ribs, they took the child for abuse, well she got pregent again same thing with that child. It was the second child that's when they all starting listening. I hope you can get help to have those form releast. Wishing the best for ya.
