The doctor came in to check my daughter and said she was perfect, 10 minutes before the shots. Then 10 minutes after she received the shots she was dead. The doctor does not tell you to wait so I had already started home. I had to stop the car and ask for help. Thank God there was a lady that Stopped to help and she did CPR on my daughter. The ambulance came and she was taken to the ER. The doctor in the ER said she was sorry, but my daughters doctor, had refused to come to the hospital and see her. She was admitted to pediatrics and the doctors on call there had to take care of her. The doctors ran several tests on her, they checked her heart with EKG, Heart ultrasounds, checked her blood, gave her an IV and all the test came back perfect. Nothing was wrong with her blood or her heart or lungs so it had to be the shots. Later on that night of 01/30/01, the family pediatrician came to the nurses station. My daughter was right across from the nurses station, he stayed for over an hour and still never came in my daughters room. When he started to leave my mother stopped him and asked what had happened to My baby, he stated he did not know but it could not have been the shots. My mother told him, he said 10 minutes before the shots she was perfect( she weighed 14 1/2 lbs, 25 1/2 '' long). Then 10 minutes after the shots she was dead. She also asked him why don't you tell people to wait but, he stated nothing has ever happened and we see no reason to tell people to wait. He still never came into to check on her. The doctors on call said they would check her to see which shot she was allergic to but they came in the next day and dismissed her without a care in the world. For a few days after the shots she would scream and cry for 10-20 minutes non stop. This child never did this before, she only cried when she was hungry or wet. Some days she sits like she is in a daze. She goes to sleep and it is really hard to wake her up and if she does wake up, she only opens her eyes a little and back to sleep she goes. It hurts to know that she had never been sick before this, she was perfect in my eyes and in the doctors eyes. As soon as the shots were given they said you can go just give her Tylenol for fever. They never said nothing bad could happen and they never gave me any papers on the shots until she had already taken the shots. By the time we walked out the doctors office and got to the car she was still crying, but as soon as I put her in the car seat and buckled it she dropped off just like she was sleeping, taking deep breaths. I just thought that the shots made her sleepy. So we proceeded to leave the parking area we had already gotten to a red light when I realized she would not respond to my voice. I then took her out of the car seat and this time she was not breathing. There was to much traffic to turn around so my mother got out of the car asking for help. She was unresponsive and her eyes rolled in the back of her head. She had no pulse, or heart beat. That's when a lady approached the car and told my mother she knew CPR. I gave her my daughter and by the time I got out of the back passenger seat and got to the drivers side, My baby was breathing. She had to do only two chest compressions and she was breathing again. I wrote this letter FEB.12, 2001, and for the past couple of days my daughter seem to be fine. I appreciate the time you are taking to read my letter. Thank you. Discharge diagnosis: apneic episode A follow up report received 4/20/2001 adds (from mother) Her breathing is fine, she is great, as perfect as before the shots were given. She has never ran a fever or been sick except for the tragedy from the shots. Thank you for your help.
