My son is living here with us because he is, as well as the rest of us, going through a very tough grieving process. Aug. 21, 2008 he had a precious baby boy and on sept. 22. 2008 his son died in his arms. We have just recently found out that the mother was a serious drug addict and there is much to this story but I won't post it all here @ this point due to the fact I am trying to bring a case against her. While my son lays indoors missing and dying inside @ the loss of his son the mother of my grandchild is out having a good time and doesn't even acknowledge his existance on her myspace page. She moved back in with an ex boyfriend of hers, who fathered a child with her when she was 15 and he has been raising the child, she rarely ever saw him. She didn't have time to care for a child.
Even when my grandson was born, she called me the night before she and the newborn were to be discharged from the hospital asking a favor of me. "Would I please baby-sit over night" So that she could go to motel 6 and spend the night and party with some out of state people. Of course I wanted to and did keep him, but I was stunned that a mother would leave the hospital, drop her new born off and leave him overnight the very 1st day home. Now this continued- when she was here, she didn't want much to do with the precious lil' angel. And during his month alive she went to Hattiesburg (where she was from) everyweekend, leaving the baby with us and a couple of other times she went down and she stayed gone @ least 2 nights at a time and sometimes more. She wasn't here when our lil' angel passed away. She was phoned @ 7a.m. that morning to get to Jackson to the hospital to see her child and she finally showed up @ apprx. 5pm. that evening. She was also one hour late for his funeral (her own child's funeral). There were a few people that had to leave due to it being held up that long.
The day before the baby was born she put him into a drug induced coma. The doctors chewed her out, used some type of 'wand instrument' 4 times before they could get the babies heart rate going again.
She purposely hid a heart doctor appt. from us where the hospital contacted her via her cell phone and her mail. The heart condition he was found to have had in the autopsy was P.F.O. which was easily treatable with a baby asprin type drug. Also the baby died on the day he was due-Sept. 22nd, 2008. She had him 5 weeks early.She had been lying about going to the OBGYN for months. We've found all of this information out after his death. Her actual 1st appt. with an OBGYN was on aug. 18, 2008 (that was the day we found out the sex of the baby and that he was a boy! My son cried tears of joy)and after getting home that day she pretended to be having labor pains, they sent her home with false labor twice (2 nights in a row( she went the 3rd night and out of concern of it being 5 weeks early and her complaining they decided to put her in the hospital and keep her in bed and resting so avoid causing her to really go into labor. I asked the nurses on the OBGYN floor why they couldn't induce labor since she was in such pain. ( She had me and really everyone else too, very fooled.) She is quite the actress, I can promise you that. But I felt sorry for her and thought she was really hurting, having contrations and was afraid something might happen to the baby. ( She had told me that a Dr. had told her the baby wasn't going to live inside of her much longer so she was using that LIE to have me ask these nurses questions and for help. When I spoke with the nurse she came down to the girls room and explained to a T. why she needed to stay in bed and NOT have labor induced that early. The nurse said that baby boys were especially tricky with their lungs not developing until the very last couple of days. She explained the risks of her having him that early so well that I got scared.
This girl chose to continue taking handfuls of pills while in the hospital, lortab 10, xanax bars,tylenol #4's, percocet 10's and drank something that she had her would force her into labor. She did squats in her room, walked around and around the room in circles, walked way across the parking lot several floors down-using the stairs rather than the elavator. She was trying so hard to start labor and avoiding everything they told her. The warnings never scared her.
After 2 or 3 days of bed rest she whinned and cried so mch begging them to induce labor saying she couldn't take the pain anymore, she later told me how they told her in the state of Ms. a mother has a right to sign papers to make a choice of having labor induced if she is 5 weeks close to her due date. I don't know if that is true or not but I know my son said when they were wheeling her down to labor to began to induce several doctors stopped them and once again tried to talk the mother out of doing this. They said they were very concerned about that baby and it was much too risky to do. (My son had lost his I.D. (drivers licences) @ work and she was the only one with any real say so- they would not even put my son on the birth certificate due to his not having his wallet with his picture I.D. with him. !about 2 wks. after my grandson's death, my son's boss found my son's wallet in his old work truck but now it'll cost close to $2,000.00 for my son's name to be added because he has to sign one side of the page in front of a notary of public and the mother has to sign the other side in front of a not. And of course she's not willing to do that so we have to get an attorney and have them take her to court to have him added now. Which we just don't have the money to do.
Anyway-I am very angry because this isn't being investigated. At the very least I've read where mother's doing drugs while pregnant were charge with neglect, abuse and attempted murder. And then her with-holding information about his heart or that he had a doctors appt. in my eyes is MURDER!!!!! I realize the law won't see it that way, but there shold be some type of charge and she should pay- Justice should be served. She should have to sit and think everyday about what she's done. She's ruined so many lives. My son, my parents, my daughter and myself will never have normal lives again. I don't how we could ever be happy. Yet this girl is still partying hard, living with one guy that she had a baby with @ 15 and never took care of. The father's been raising him and when he works offshore she drives that baby around in the man's care high on drugs to her other boyfriends house and allows the 2 yr old to roam a house while they lock themselves in a bedroom.
It's as if she isn't human! I knew she was sorry as heck. Had a terrible reputation but I had NO IDEA she was a cold blooded killer.
And I can't get any help-noone to help make her be punished for what's she's done and another child is in danger and noone seems to care. I don't want her to get the death penality I just want her to serves years behind bars and think about what she's done. I want her to be forced to look @ pictures of the baby she never cared about and hear his name daily. Is that too much to ask for?
Why do some mothers go to jail for using drugs and others not?
How can she make a myspace page and talk about how good she feels and NEVER mention, that she had a son or that he died?
Can someone help me? Tell me what to do?
I just learned the other day the reason the final autopsy report is taking so long to come in is because they are doing extensive drug testing on the baby. Now the autopsy was done sept. 23rd after he passed on the 22nd of sept. None of of knew she was on drugs and didn't request this testing.
Can anyone what EXTENSIVE DRUG TESTING MEANS? Is that done for just te babies life span of a month and a day or are they going back into her pregnancy with this. I pray its the later because we found out she did cocaine, esctasey, smoked weed daily & cigs too. Also her main thing was pills and she didn't take 1,2,3,4,or 5 @ a time. She took 22 lortab 10's and 19 KPs in one dose plus several 800 mg. nuerotins . And that was not a one time deal, she self admitted to very times. After the 22 lortab deal we took her too the hospital thinking she had the flu, was vomitting and pale white. She took handfuls of ambien and over the counter sleeping pills,adderoll (ADAH med.s) to make her speed, percocet 10's...........numerous things.
Please tell me sometthing can be done to make her pay????????
