my sons death on 12/23/09
Posted: Jan 25, 2010
My son passed away on 12/23/09. He was found barely breathing and EMS called. Autopsy showed really nothing and we don't have the results back from toxicology back yet. I have obtained his medical records and it is one mess of errors in every way possible. One of the things I found out is that EMS did an incorrect endotracheal tube placement in that they put the tube in the esophagus. That is quite common but usually is found immediately upon listening to the chest and corrected. They did not figure this out (EMS) and there was about a 35 minute delay between the time they placed the tube, worked on him, got him to the hospital and the ER doctor figured out the misplacement nad corrected it! My son actually went into cardiac arrest at the house as EMS was working on him and there was never any response after that. No wonder! You can't get a response out of someone when they have a breathing tube in their esophagus.
Besides the fact that this even happened, I can't even tell you the depths of despair my husband and I are suffering over this and to find out that this kind of negligence happened...........there are no words. I don't want to get out of bed even in the morning. I am on the brink of losing my job and I wouldn't blame them. I really don't care nad would just like to lay down and die myself. On top of all the rest, he had been sick and not feeling well for a awhile especially the last 4-5 days. He was fiighting with his room mate so the room mate ignored him and let him lay on the couch sick for four days and didn't get him any help. He is now trying to change his story. Thing is his room mate posted all this information all over his face book account which I copied and printed but now the room mate has taken all this information off of the face book account.
This is just a bunch of errors. When first notified of my son's death the first thing I thought was an overdose but some of his friends kept telling me no that they didn't think so. The limited lab work and other information we have back so far is not pointing in anyway towards any kind of overdose accidental or otherwise.
I am so tired I cannot think, eat, sleep, etc. My mind feels like it is in a million little pieces that I cannot put back together again and I don't care if I live or die myself.
Please keep me in your prayers.

I am so sorry. I cannot even wrap my mind around how you are feeling right now. I just wanted to tell you that you have my deepest sympathies and my heart goes out to you.
Your dear son... - AzRain
[ In Reply To ..]He was lucky to have such a loving mother, and you were blessed to have been his mother. I will pray for you and your family, and for your dear son's soul.
"Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them, and may they rest in peace."
Your Son - anon

May God Grant You Comfort and Peace Over Time - Linda Andrews
[ In Reply To ..]I am so very sorry. You have my prayers and if you were here in person I would give you a long hug. Know that God cares and as hard as it is to understand it right now, He will provide comfort over time, if you will lean on Him. I know that from my own personal experience when I actually said to God, "You are supposed to be my Comforter, and I am not comforted." My prayer was answered, at the right time. Right now is the time to grieve. If we could only take some of the hurt from you, I'm sure that many of us would. I am so sorry.
MT30+ I just do not have the right words to say to you. - Fingers
[ In Reply To ..]It is too soon for anyone to try to comfort you as much as I wish I could. Life is going to go on and somehow you are going to have to go on too. Being a mother, I simply can only imagine your pain and do not even like to go there.
Whatever therapy you need, family, friends, counselor, clergy, etc., or none at all - only you know. No one can tell you how you must deal with this. You will do it in your own way and in your own time.
I have said prayers for you and your family since I read about your son right after Christmas. I will continue to do so. Please do take good care of yourself and make sure you vent/share here and let us know how you are doing. People you do not even know really do care about you.

[ In Reply To ..]Faith dares the soul to go further than it can see. William Clark
During painful or desperate times, we may feel our Higher Power has abandoned us. We feel empty and hopeless. We give up because all we ever do seems to fail anyway. We feel forsaken. We don't understand why our Higher Power isn't coming to our aid when we so desperately need and want help.
We remember that our Higher Power does not make our decisions for us; it walks with us while we feel our pain so that we may grow and learn compassion. In the darkest of times, we pray, we wait and we do our best to believe. This simple act is a testament of our faith, even if we feel we don't have any. Out of the darkest hours, miracles grow.

PSU Did Not Get The Death Penalty BecauseJul 23, 2012

It is a shame that they will feel the affects of the punishment to the university, but there is no getting around it. It had to b ...

Why Are Supporters Of The Death PenaltyOct 01, 2015
I know the system can be flawed. I know sometimes the wrong person is convicted of stealing, or whatever. But, when the penalty has escalated to the death penalty, any doubt, any evidence, no matter when it is found, nothing matters, it all should be considered and we should never put a person to death if there is any doubt at all. So many seem so eager and interested in the process that the actual cases do not really matter. This is such a vengeful society, at least when it suits. ...
