My son, the er, ugh

[Alycia]

sorry, I don't know how to say it. My son, koleton fell off my bed, I remind u that he has brittle bone disease, and also his back has been bothering him badly!!! He then came into the living room, with his butt in the air, screaming, trying to walk. Then he fell to the floor, and wasn't moving, his eyes were back in his head, then after what felt like 10 mins, prob 10 secs tho, he started screaming his head off. I called the er, and asked what to do. They said bring him in some way. I then called 911, and the fire truck and ambulance came. The put him on a board, and took him, the kids went with my neighbor, and we went in the ambulance. We got there, the nurse 'aids' were helping us. Koleton was screaming his head off, they wouldn't give him nothing, or take him to xray. Finally, after an hour, the doc comes in. Kind of checks him out, orders pain drugs, and the nurse finally gave it to him, and sent us home!!!!!!!!!!!! They wouldn't take him to xray or anything!!! I had to take my kid that is crying in pain home. I swear to god, if he has a broken back, I will sue their asses off!!!!!!!! I got him into bed, and now he is sleeping. I would of taken him straight to lax but he wasn't crying as much and fell asleep. Plus, I don't have a car, and I couldn't get a hold of no one! IF things get worse tonight, I will take him in my van no matter what!

Stupid docs suck!

P.S. don't worry, I won't take any of koleton's meds, I care for him, not my addiction more!

I hope your son will be fine when he wakes up.

Kids are typically pretty resiliant. I know you mentioned your son's other illnesses, but hopefully he will be feeling better soon.

*hugs*

I swear I don't know what's happended to health care in this country. I hope he's OK.

We just got up. He is feeling better today. I think he just bruised it, but he can't walk or nothing yet. I think I might take him to our bone doc for brittle bones. I fell off the bed when I was 3, and broke my leg, it matters how we hit. I tapped my hand on my bus seat, and busted a finger! Uggg! I just found out that my ma was in the sike ward, sorry, I don't know the apprioate word. She is out on pass right now. I wish her husband would of called me. I could tell something was wrong cuz she didn't call me when I called her about my son. I thought, wow mom, u don't even care? I feel stupid for that! There was other things when she didn't call and things happened. But she is turning around a little now, and it is hard to remember. My ma, has never had this bad of a prob with depression. I have been in there when I overdosed in 2000. I was so happy, in a great mood for the last couple days! Now I feel like when does it end for a while? (maybe it is cuz I forgot to take my anti-d. yest. lol jk) Well, I am sorry to talk so long, but there is no one else I can, cuz my ma doesn't want no one to know.

She said that my thyroid was screwed up, but I already knew that. I guess there was fluid around my kidneys, and they want me to do a kidney ultrasound next wk or so. Also, I guess this is minor, but there was fluid around the plevix around, they said it was a cist that exploded. Along with the mass in my uterus, I am tired of it! Well, when does it stop. I gotta remember to stay postitive. Everything will turn out find anyways.


Koleton is doing much better today, he still is having probs walking and things, I think he bruised his back. Atleast he is eating and stuff now.

Thanks guys,

Alycia,,

Sorry to hear about your son. You have such beautiful children I pray he will
bounce back, and be doing great again. How's that baby of your by the way? It's been a while since we used to talk, so I bet he isn't a baby anymore.. They grow so fast.

Sounds like you really have your hands full. I understand how you feel about your mom,, my mom used to have to be hospitalized quite often when I was growing up, in the psych ward. I was always so afraid, and never understood. I also understand what it is when they don't want to tell anyone.. That is really hard too, sometimes it's something that I wanted to talk to someone about. But it was always a big secret in our house too.

I believe that you said you have a sponsor? It would be good to talk to your sponsor about what it going on in your life.. With your kids, your mom,, and your health. You can talk about having pain meds in the house too. Sponsors are great support and great at guidance when things are so stressful, and even when they aren't. Through talking about things, we learn to trust,, I know I had to leanr to trust, that was really tough for me for a long time.

Prayers to you and your family,,

Becky

Well, my baby is doing great! He is such a cutie, always doing funny stuff! lol I have seemed to forget this stage when the older boys were little.

I was thinking about calling my sponsor, but I didn't know, cuz some of it, doesn't deal with drugs. We haven't done the first meeting with us too, were going to meet up on tues. She said she wasn't my doc, counselor, and a whole bit of other stuff. So I didn't think she wanted me to call her about it! But she did say to call everyday or every other. Well, I just called her, and she was sooooo nice, it was very cool! She listened to everything I said. It was kind of ackward a times, cuz she can't give advice, or whatever, plus, it was a lot to say, u know.

But thanks Becky, I feel much better. This place has helped me out a lot!

Also, I have a quick ? for someone. I want to give my sponsor and anyone else this address for this place, but I don't know what it is. Anyone know the address? I just used yahoo.

Thanks all of you guys for everything.

Love,
Alycia
