A day in pediatrics ( what kind of mother is this !!!! )
I know that all parents love their children, especially mothers. A strong relationship between a mother and her child, and I wrote an article in which I talked about the sanctity of a mother’s love for her children.
But what I met at the children's hospital two days ago, well, shook that belief!
A while ago, I read an article saying that “parents don’t deserve this.” I’m sorry, I don’t remember exactly who wrote it to refer to. In any case, the article talked about the fact that the children when they were raised and married abandoned their parents who spent their lives raising them.
Well in my article here I will say, "Kids don't deserve this"
I had an interview in pediatrics yesterday and things went very well, but the day before the interview, I decided to go to the children's hospital and see the cases in the hospital, in order to get an idea of the most common diseases during this period and perhaps my interview will be with one of these cases.
I entered several rooms, some cases were simple and will be released soon from the hospital, and some cases require more treatment and care, everything is normal like any hospital.
In the last room I entered, I found the mother sitting on the bed with her child next to her. I entered and said good morning and started asking some questions to the mother.
The first thing I noticed is that the baby is very small, measuring less than 35 centimeters, which is the normal length in which the fetus is born, as well as a very low weight of only 3 kilograms. The normal weight of the fetus at birth is 3200-3500 grams.
The thing that shocked me is that the child is two and a half years old, from his looks, this will be the last thing you expect, his height! his weight! They never show this. At the age of two years, his weight should be more than 10 kg, at least!
After asking several questions to the mother, I found that he has a twin sister who has the same condition, and that the companion is not his mother, but his father’s wife, the woman told me the full story, that the two children were born with a low weight of about a kilo and a half only, on the day of the birth their mother looked at them and told her husband that she did not She wants us and that he should send them to the orphanage, the father did not accept this and insisted on keeping his two children and taking care of them, but the mother refused to breastfeed them, and she kept them in a dark room all day long without talking or playing with her, feeding them only rice water, and they never tasted the taste of milk.
When they were a year and a half old, the mother left, filed for divorce, and left her husband and children, whom she had never treated as children.
After this, the father married the woman who told us the story and told us that she has cared for them since that time and they have improved for a while but their weight has returned to decline, the children suffer from some problems since birth and they have malnutrition, they have growth failure and failure of spiritual and motor development.
Because of their mother's neglect from birth.
The image of the child does not leave my mind, a fixed piece of wood that does not have the strength to move, walk, sit, or even speak. This is the most inhumane state I've ever met. Or does this to her children!!! I thought this was only in soap operas and not real, what is her heart made of? What kind of mom does this??
She destroyed all notions of motherhood, severed the sacred bond with her children, failed as a wife and mother, was selfish, preferred herself over her children and her duties.
I did not expect in my life to see a mother of this type, what is the fault of this child that you brought to life to receive such treatment?
My heart is praying for this child and his sister, as a doctor I know that he will not last long but I know that he will live in my heart and in my memory, what I saw will never be forgotten.
What is the fault of the child to be deprived of love and tenderness? To be deprived of his right to a normal life?
Do kids deserve this? He is your son of your flesh and blood! How do you do this? What kind of mom are you? How did you manage to abandon your children? How did you??
I'm sorry, I'm just too mad of the mother, the heartless mother, did you hear about such story before?
Thanks to all of you ❤️
