I made a decision for him to call911 as his fever was spiking .. I couldn't accompany him in ambulance as needed to care for his infant sister inside. My sister was with me too but had just been released form hospital herself so was unable to care for the infant. Just as we thought of my sis accompanying him in ambulance, they left. So I did know that he was inGOOD hands though and that he was getting the treatment he so NEEDED. The mom belittled me that he was 'with strangers' and even questioned me calling for help.. o.O That blew me away .. his health was fading and he was HOT to the touch too.. I made a decision that I do not regret.. what he had ended up being in 'some' stages, can lead to meningitis, which can lead to death. I never once thought he was eVER unsafe. She said I made 'excuses' and that she emailed me a... less
Should respect be given freely to all and sundry thus becoming yet another useless politically correct word, or should respect be earned and thus maintain its value?
