Guest guest Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 Dear Sharon T, I'm sorry to learn that your son had such a painful experience. This was an extreme case and since you know how painful it was for him, you can ask for him to be sedated. You can ask for Versed. You are awake, but you don't remember anything. I'm sure they would accomodate him on that issue. We do have a wonderful group of people at this site who genuinely care for one another and I'm happy to know you had so many positive responses. The humane thing to do when we have a very concerned newcomer is to reach out and make comments about our own experiences, though not many are as complicated as your son's case. I'm glad you had a good experience with Dr. Shah and hopefully your son will still be in chronic. Perhaps they will find a donor very soon. If not you may want to consider chord blood transplants. It is much easier to find a match from the baby's umbilical chord. There are centers around the country who have chord blood banks. The hospital should have that information available, but you can also find it online. Blessings and peace, Lottie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
