When they handed me Evie. I said something is wrong with her. They looked at me like I was crazy. No she is healthly blah blah blah. You can’t feel that connected to her you didn’t give birth to her. It took 5 months. You are great!

So glad that you at least have one doctor that listens to you. I hope you get this sorted out. Clearly your instincts are nothing to be so easily dismissed, so go kick them in the ass! Good luck! <3

I hate that they just won’t test her. Asthma is so scary. It’s not something to mess with. Keep pushing them Jenn. You are doing what’s right for her…hopefully soon they will listen.

First of all I am sorry you are having to deal with anything else at all. But you could not be more right, we know our kids best. I was firm and had to come in with research b/c I *knew* Mason had reflux. But they kept doubting me. It sucked that I even had to do that but it saved him months of crying and pain. I could write a novel on how I am SO OVER doctors and how they act like we know nothing at all, much less something about our own kids/self.
Bottom line: GO GET ‘EM MAMA!

It shouldn’t have to be this hard. I understand that doctors have been through med school, have put jn their time, but I still don’t understand why they think that entitles them to be dismissive.

Good luck. You sound tough, and it’s a damn good thing you are.

You have to trust your instincts and be Vista's loudest advocate. It sounds like you are on the right tract. I hope they listen to you this time and get Vista the treatment she needs to make her feel better. .-= Lisa´s last blog ..Time For the Big Change? =-.
