I just found out, that my daughter's (she's 15) friend's youngest
brother died of meningitis, when the doctors told them it was the
flu. SHe said, that the child was reported to have had, the character
teristic signs of broken blood veessels, that look similar to
bruises, just beneath his skin, and a high fever.
My dughter was upsetk, just hearing aobut htis, because she had
another friend, whose baby had the same thing. The clinic told them
to feed the child soup. My daughter knows better, and (she was 13 at
the time). And my daughter insisted that they take the child to the
local Childrens Hospital (San Diego). It was there, that they IV'D
her and saved her life. 2 year old Mary Jane is now 4 year old Mary
Jane.
WHY DONT THEY TEACH FIRST AID AND MEDICINE IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL?
I ask this, because I prived the American Red Cross's class prices.
For my duaghter to take 1st Aid, and Infant/childrebn CPR, they want
$55.00. I'm barely making my rent payments, as a single Mom. This
price is bullshit. WHY do I even SEND my kid to PUBLIC SCHOOL?
BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD TUTORS!
