Nightmare....

[Karla]

When will it ever end.....
this nightmare of mine?
When will I awake to find here...
that little girl of mine?

Someone please tell me that it's all in my mind,
That she did not just come,
and whispered goodbye.

How could it be real?
It must be a nightmare...
Soon I'll awake and find her near.

Karla,

Did you write that?

I'm so so sorry for your loss, I know right now is so hard and you think your not going to be able to feel anything ever again except what your feeling right now at this very moment. (From one mom (that has lost two children) to another, with time it gets somewhat easier that FOG does lift and it will without you even knowing. But for today God is with you, just keep praying...

Thanks Kamie,

Yeah, I'd write that, and I am sorry for your losses. My girl was so precious as you can see from her picture, but my hurt is more alive these past few weeks as the hospital that goofed up has done so again with another child and it was a horrible experience for her family. It's a whole big investigation and the callousness of doctors are being exposed. It brings back many memories and questions for me as to what more mistakes were made with Cydney Paige, why did they prevent me from going into ICU to be with her? Even if her condition was so severe, every moment with her would have been precious for me. Nothing will be done, that's our country (Trinidad), they all get away with their negligence, from our Top Government ministers all the way down. I hurt for the little girl's family, her surgery was a simple hernia correction, but she never recovered because she was given a lethal dose of anesthesia which made her heart stop and subsequently she became brain dead. Then they lied to the family hooking up the girl (Faith was her name) to life support even when they knew she was dead.

Kirk, Cheryl, I've been thinking a lot about getting my licience to practice law, but also I have been thinking how could I get away from this country? I have been hurt by all the systems, that we pay exorbitant taxes for, health, education, security etc..... Cheryl you may remember a newspaper article I sent about an incident which invovled my husband, well those threats are more prevalent now (Kidnappings). We live in fear and I am getting angrier by the hours. So anyone want to adopt a family from Trinidad?

Dear Karla, Our son, Christopher was accidentally overdosed with potassium and subsequently died for 5 minutes at Yale Children's Hospital. Unfortunately, the longer a child is in a hospital the risk of accidents increase. They most certainly cover their behinds and I hope you make it out of Trinidad. My wife is from Guyana and knows all too well about curruption at the highest levels of West Indian Countries. May God heal your suffering. mike Buckley
