[QUOTE="buddy, post: 539809, member: 12886"] Wow that brings back a terrible memory. My niece/God daughter was the only baby for a long time and I cared for her a lot of the time. My sister's ex is adhd and ???? I will be honest he has grown and does much better. He was a new dad and clueless but..... I arrived and he was holding her. I took her and because I have cared for many many infants I knew she was HOT. I asked for a thermometer and under arm said 106 so I asked him if I could do a rectal and it was accurate (sister is a nurse they had the right thermometer. ) He laughed. Said hed call the doctor after his dinner cooked and he ate. I snuck away and called sister while finding tylenol and running a cool bath. Sister called pediatrician and they wanted her in now! And her husband ( now ex) was ****** at me. He didn't want me to go but i said if she has a seizure you need me. If I can't come I'm calling 911. At the doctor he got ****** again they wanted to cath for urine and get blood he didnt want it because she cried ( no tears though)! I still shake when I think of it. The doctor was ready to call cps...poor kid of course ended up in the hospital. I kept defending dad saying I thought he was just so scared etc. In denial. I didn't want my sister to suffer for his actions. They got permission from her. He almost grabbed the baby and left and I talked him down. Never had I experienced something like that. What she had??? I was banned from seeing her for a while till caring for her became inconvenient for him again. She could have died and he never acted anything but like the whole mess was my fault. I was sooo respectful to him the whole time. Even when I said I'd call 911 I said it in a way that sounded like he would of course want that too now that he knows how serious this is.....she is 16 now and it still makes me mad. I sure hope that baby is ok. I do understand the money thing but we have to do what we have to do. That is a life or death situation. Glad you saw the post. Hope she is better now. [/QUOTE]
