To start I’ve found out the local children’s hospital is a research hospital and is notorious for medical kidnap. Many parents have kids with special needs, I fortunately have an otherwise extremely healthy child but developmentally delayed with an unknown genetic disorder. For the first 5 years of his life we searched for answers. Over covid his pediatrician gave me concern so I moved him, this new doctor we saw once before I was concerned about how her practice bullied her into supporting things she didn’t believe. She then came out in support of the covid shots, which she was against before the bullying. I haven’t been back to her. My son was cleared from the neurologist, cardiologist, orthopedic, genetics clinics in our previous state. They had no answers so we do therapies and help him the best we can but haven’t reached out to any specialists in our new state. He is in a great school and is doing well but again we don’t know what’s causes his delays. I met someone today who told me about a program we could participate in that would draw his blood and enter him in a database to find “genomic” answers. He is healthy, he is happy, I have accepted he may never speak, I have accepted he will never live on his own. The last three years I’ve come to distrust most in the medical field, my son is amazing just the way he is. I know there is no fixing his issues but would you still look for answers? I’m torn between protecting him and helping him. I don’t know any doctors here to ask advice, any doctors I knew are from my previous state.
