I am so upset about this case, that I am almost at a lost for words. This poor 9 year old little girl was literally made to run until she dropped. All for eating A candy bar even though (according to step-mom and grandma) she knew she was not suppose to eat it. SHE WAS A CHILD!! At 9 years old what does she understand about her heath condition?
She had A bladder condition called "bladder reflux" (according to family members). Well I just looked it up, here is what I found. http://www.pedisurg.com/pteduc/vesicoureteral_reflux.htm Maybe I am not reading this article right but no where do I see that she was not allowed to have chocolate.
After she collapsed after running for 3 hours. 911 was finally called, caller said Savannah was having A seizure. After arriving to the E.R. It was noted that Savannah was severally dehydrated and dangerously low sodium.
Savannah's father was over seas and had to catch 8 different plains to get to his daughters bed side. He then had to make the choice to take her off life support because she was not going to pull through.
The most that would have happened after Savannah ate the candy bar was MAYBE wet her pants. This little girl had to die just because they were afraid she MIGHT wet her pants. WTH????
I have an Autistic 19 year old that takes Seroquel. He is not suppose to have grapefruits or anything containing grapefruit in it. It will counter react his medicine. Even if he would get into it, I would have to deal with it until the effects of the grapefruit wear off. You sit the child down and explain it to them. You DO NOT run them until they drop over.
Even after I watched Nancy grace cover this story 2 times and I have read the news articles on line, I am still at A lost for words as to why this had to happen.
