Guest guest Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 Hi this is the dad of the Ortiz household. has come down sick. Too much stress going on, and not enough sleep/help from the doctors. Anyway, actually went to school today, and Kira is doing a bit better. She still has a ways to go. We were very disappointed in what happen when we took the children to DR Boles. Long story short, they talked us into a 72 hour hold on Kira which almost did in, but then when the psych got involved there were no beds available so was told to take her home and find her help on her own. I couldn't believe it. It was all too much for who is now down very ill. I don't get these doctors. My family is falling apart and now my wife and they send these kids back with what comes out to a pat on the head and a they will get well soon, you can handle this. It is way to much! I can't believe what they expect from sometimes. She has told me before that they don't always listen to her, but I saw first hand just how much lack of support she really gets. I am sure when is feeling better she will fill you all in on what happened. Very disappointing for sure and hugely frustrating. Enrique, Dad to three Mito kids and a very tired wife right now.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Enrique, PLease, send along our love and support! Hope she feels better soon. There is a lot of pressure to helps our children when no one else will listen, it is so hard. Sometimes it us us care givers who end up worse off in the long run.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Why a 72 hour hold? Were they thinking Kira was making this all up and trying to get attention for being ill? I'm just shaking my head at this one. I feel for you guys. Especially because needs to work for the insurance. Is there something in your state to take a leave of absence? Family emergency? I know you can get paid for a short time; but don't you still get to keep the insurance portion?
