BRAIN DAMAGED

My daughter will be 10 and its only getting worse for her.she is beginning to ache all over.her joints are becoming stiff and as a mother it pains me dearly.i cry to God at night everyday and ask Him for strength for my little girl.

When i visited the hospital on july 31st 2007 to give birth to my daughter, the medical staff diagnosed foetal distress and an emergency Caesarean section was recommended.i signed the consent form for the surgery but four hours later there was no surgery and i gave birth naturally.

My baby was unresponsive at birth and did not cry until after several minutes.My baby then developed seizures and chest infections and had to remain in hospital for another two weeks.(just speaking about this tears me apart)

the medical staff should have known that anoxic injury to the brain is a reasonable forseeable consequence of foetal distress if delivery was not done by emergency caesarean section.they shouldve known!!! Their failure to resucitate my baby immediately at birth or within reasonable time with adequate supply of oxygen to prevet brain damage. I blame the hospital for negligence and unskillful care, management and treatment of myself and the baby.My daughter is going to be 11 years on july 31st and all i want is to put her out of the pain shes presently feeling.she has headaches almost everyday and Her chest pains are back and the seizures are returning...and if that isnt enough, shes had to live 10 years with her brain tragically damaged. im in pain because my baby is. She may be brain damaged... i may not be able to have any conversations with her but shes still my little girl and she doesnt deserve to be in more pain than shes already suffering.

Any help will suffice because after 10 years the hospital still refuses to take responsibilty for what happened. i have no job and no more money because my time is spent taking care of my baby.
