Our family is filled with so many emotions
right now. Anger, pain, loss, confusion, and many others. Sometimes, it is difficult to truly express how we are feeling with
words.
Imagine if you can..
Spending every day and night of every
year for ten years with your child. Fighting with all your ability, strength and might to keep them alive, happy, pain free!
Making numerous strides - getting them one day further in life!
Ten years of smiles, ten years of birthdays,
ten years of mischief, ten years of hugs, ten years of joy, tear years of “miracles”….then all of a sudden
– it is all gone…Now empty arms, an empty bed, an empty house. No more smiles, no more infectious laughter, no
more pranks, no more Terran.
The last 20 days of his life were filled
with pain. There were so many things done that could have been prevented. The events of the last night of Terrans life, should
have never become an issue. Terran should still be here, getting ready to enjoy his lobster dinner!!
The blood Terran so desperately needed…Didn’t
get to him on time. The urgency of the situation seemed to fall on deaf ears. Communication barrier. A mountain of issues,
all of which should NEVER have come into play that night! A doctor not knowing how to properly perform CPR. Nurses not jumping
to action, when there was obviously something wrong. The lack of a Latex free crash cart in an area where my Terran was, who
is ALLERGIC to Latex. All things – that could have been different.
When I have the strength, I will tell you
all more about why Terran was taken from us. I will tell you about the pain, and horror his last night here on earth with
us. Then you all will understand and see why I am so upset and have many unanswered questions and unresolved issues with doctors
and nurses that I trusted, that Terran trusted…
Just know – we loved Terran and always
will. He was taken from us too soon. I know that in my heart.
