DOCTORS AND NURSES FROM THE CANADIAN HOSPITALS ARE
COMMITTING HONEST MEDIAL HERRORS?
Or using children as guinea pigs for their inhumane and criminal
medical experimentation!!! In some Canadian hospitals doctors are masterminds
to commit horrors and destroy children and youth for lifetime. (Lady of Mercy Wing,
St. Joseph Hospital) Approximately 70,000 Canadians harmed by medical doctors
each year.

Toddler dies after being misdiagnosed 5 times; family
reeling
WATCH: Less than a week after
two-year-old Grayson came down with what was thought to be the stomach flu, he
died in hospital.
It’s been almost a month since Kayla
Dunham’s two-year-old son Grayson died after what was initially thought to
be “a little bug.”
“Our sweet, handsome, smart,
outgoing, little boy was taken from us too soon for reasons we will never
understand,” the 25-year-old Indiana mom, who’s pregnant with her second child,
wrote on Facebook shortly after
her firstborn’s death.
The first sign something was wrong
with her toddler came the morning of Aug. 10, when he began to vomit and
experienced diarrhea.
The family had recently visited a
petting zoo, state fair and restaurant. But doctors couldn’t pinpoint a cause,
despite a battery of tests that included chest and stomach X-rays and
ultrasounds.
They reportedly first said it was
the stomach flu. Then they said it seemed his intestines had folded
over themselves. An appendix problem was also considered to be the culprit.
All the while, the
boy’s symptoms worsened and his pain grew.
“We were misdiagnosed five times
before they said, ‘yes this is HUS,'” Dunham told TODAY.
What
is HUS?
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is
sometimes referred to as “Hamburger Disease,” according to The Kidney Foundation of Canada.
“It poses a substantial threat
to Canadian children as one of the leading causes of both acute and chronic
kidney failure,” the organization warns on its site.
HUS often follows a
gastrointestinal illness caused by a dangerous strain of E. coli bacteria. While most strains of E. coli are
pretty harmless — and can even be found in our guts, for instance
— the 0157:H7 strain is known to cause permanent damage to kidneys
and the liver.
It was responsible for the tragic
outbreak in Walkerton, Ont., in 2000, in which 2,500 people fell
ill and seven died. That outbreak was caused by run-off from
farm fields that made its way into the water supply.
Because it’s a bacteria that lives
in guts, E. coli usually signals the presence of fecal contamination of some
sort.
Although everyone is susceptible to E. coli infection, pregnant women, people with compromised immune
systems, the elderly and young children are most at risk for developing serious
complications from it.
(You can find more information on safe cooking practices that can help
prevent HUS here.)
The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention in the United States says antibiotics shouldn’t be used to
treat these infections because they may increase the risk of HUS. The
preferred treatment is rehydration.
‘This
wasn’t supposed to happen’
Dunham said doctors did try to
rehydrate her son. It appears to have been too little and too late, though.
As he awaited surgery and
dialysis, Grayson’s heart seemingly gave out on him. Twenty-some
doctors reportedly performed CPR on him for close to two hours in a desperate
effort to save him, Dunham wrote.
“They did every single thing they
possibly could to try to get our baby boy back to where he needed to be.”
In the end, her son’s bacterial
infection proved to be “just too severe.”
“My heart is in shock, I’m numb, and
I don’t have words for what even happened. This wasn’t supposed to happen.”
She shared her story in the
hope that it might help other parents. And as hard as it is, the grieving
mom is trying her best to stay strong for the child she’s still carrying.
Her baby girl is due in January
and will be named Graysie, after the brother she never got to meet.
