Well, as most of you already know... Child protective service and social services was called on us today... The doctors came in this afternoon and said that since all these changes has happened since they took over, that I wasn't properly feeding her at home... Oh it was so upsetting... So we told that we didn't want anything to happen until, Tim and both of our moms got here... They got here and we had a long with the nurse manager and the charge pediatrican... Tim called our insurance and our pediatrican at home, and we told them we have nothing to hide but that there was no reason to blame me until proven otherwise... We made the offer of having a home nurse come and watch, and to have social services come to our house and do whatever they want or need to do... So, I think we will get to go home tomorrow after the doctors get in touch with our pediatrican and social services... It's hurts so bad to be blamed, and it just doesn't make sense like why of a sudden now... I understand that they are doing this to protect her, cause I'm sure they do see cases of neglect, but it doesn't make sense why see still loses weight durin the day.. Yes, she gains it back and plus a little back over night but she was doing that when I fed her.. Why didn't UVA or Roanoke get CPS involved, obviously they think I'm a good mother, and why would I feed her for a month and just stop... On a positive note, that they will see and monitor her at home and if she keeps gaining then everything will go away... If she keeps gaining, then it's a possibility her kidneys had fixed themselves, or a fructose deficiency... We will keep her on fructose free diet for a while and see.. We may never know... The goal is that we are going to cooperate with them and prove that we are good parents, and that we will never hurt her... But if she doesn't gain, then they can scratch us off and start from the beginning... I knew when they started taking my rights away little by little, that this was going to happen... I respect that they have to keep her safe, and that she is number one but I would never hurt her and I would do anything for her.. Anyhow her fluid test came back normal, meaning she isn't retaining any extra fluid... She. She did gain 4 oz (10.8) but lost 4 (10.4)... Other than that, that was my day... I hope everyone is safe in the snow and staing warm

Brittney, I'm going to put this here and copy to your facebook post for all to read. Let me tell you right now and I know you understand this, but hearing something so shocking to you from the doctors, etc...could be clouding what you already know in your heart. The reason for these positive changes in Maddie, is because she was HEALED!!! Praise God for that and only focus on that. This is a miracle! All have come together with you and Tim in your prayers for her to be well, casted out whatever sickness was trying to defeat her and we have VICTORY over that!!! I know you are in pain over their doubts, hurtful words and accusations but we will fight and win that, too!!! Remember there will be doubters of miracles and they will look at the only "human" explanation, do NOT let them trouble you. Continue to trust in God and he will lead you out of this, too! If any of us can help you with this, you need to let us know and in the meantime, our prayers continue. We love you all so much!!! Aunt Gail, Uncle Mike and family

ReplyDeleteBrittney, I am so sorry! I understand your feelings. Yes, I'm sure that the doctors and all the medical staff look for things that just don't "look right." And that is a good thing because so many children fall into situations of abuse and neglect. But when you know in your heart and soul that you have done everything you could to love and protect your child and then have a finger pointed at you. Oh Boy, Does it hurt! Like you said, Maddie was in Roanoke Hospital and UVA with the same trouble. They monitored her and you feeding her, right? So what's the problem with the care you give her! Hang tough, hold your head high and don't let your tail drag! My thoughts and prayers are with you always and forever. You all are a very special family, and God knows that! What more matters! LOVE & PRAYERS...TODAY, TOMORROW AND ALWAYS!
