Doctors Tell Parents To Strave Their Cleft-Lip Baby To Death
(Life News) The day after he was born, Aidan was taken into the NICU (Neonatal
Intensive Care Unit) because he was unable to breastfeed, and was becoming
dehydrated and weak. The hospital did not have the type of bottles babies with a
cleft use to feed. The hospital pediatrician called my husband into the nursery
and advised us to sign Aidan over to the hospital.
He told us that we were still young, we could still have other children, and
that these kids (kids with cleft lip and palate) tend to have neurological
problems, he would require many surgeries that could bankrupt us, and that if we
were foolish enough to ignore medical advice and take our baby home he would end
right back at the hospital as a “failure to thrive.” The "treatment plan" the doctor told us was that they’d give our son pain medicine, and let him die (of starvation and dehydration). Jodi began to cry and refused, at which point the doctor turned to Quentin and said, "Get her out of here, she’s being irrational." He thought he would have a better chance at convincing Quentin to leave the baby. |
