Collateral Damage Syndrome.. A short look at the “CBS Dotors” episode with Dr. David Ayoub

Posted on

http://www.recapo.com/the-doctors/the-doctors-kids/doctors-rickets-controversy-doctors-better-educated/

 

Pay close attention to this recap. In my opinion Dr. Ayoub is on the spot but holds his own excellently. Dr Slovis is defensive. His last comment is the most telling. ““We haven’t forgotten our past,” he said. “There is no huge epidemic of rickets. The first thing we have to change is preventing child abuse. It’s great to talk about treating it. We have to prevent child abuse.”  

A lack of understanding rickets is monumental among child abuse experts, radiologists and pediatricians. They all seem to resort to the “we have to prevent child abuse”.

That is fine and dandy until that blatant stand destroys an innocent family. It is held by many that it is better to risk getting it wrong than to risk a child being abused. That is ABSURD! The medical research is available that can clearly identify abuse from a medical condition. Ignorance, Egos and self righteous attitudes are causing irreversible harm to the infants and their families. 

War is a classic example of how this should be viewed. Consider WW II and how thousands of civilians were killed during bombing raids. Fast forward to modern bombing. Collateral damage is minimized by better targeting technology. In the past blind ideology about attacking our enemies with everything we had, worked, but at what cost?    When you focus on just winning, The result only satisfies the side that attacked. The bigger spectrum should always be in getting it right. 

So long as Abuse experts, Rradiologists and Pediatricians presume their goal is to only prevent children from being abused, collateral damage will continue.

The mind set should be that removing a child from a loving family is  something that should also be prevented and every step it takes to get the diagnosis right needs to be pursued.

The stories I have written on Yahoo contributor are a compilation of what I have experienced during our ordeal with false allegations of child abuse, family court. The arena within the medical community that no one but only a limited amount of  people are privileged to know is taking place. 

 

Please pass on and share these articles with as many friends, doctors and relatives as possible. It is not about money. As I have stated I only receive a VERY VERY small amount of money from Yahoo. Recently I was told that 1.58 was in my Pay Pal account. That was for generating over 1000 views. I have no ideal how to access the money and it will be history if I do not  claim it by June 5th. It as good as gone. No cares. I am happy to know that over 1000 people have viewed  the stories. That however is just a spit in the ocean.

 

Here are the stories once again. SHARE SHARE SHARE ReBlog or what ever it takes!

Can the mindset of those who support SHAKEN BABY SYNDROME be convinced that it is just a (faulty) tool used with good intentions yet wrought with destructive consequences?

Posted on Updated on

I have been studying and following the history of Shaken baby Syndrome (SBS) for over two years. I have no degree or certifications. What I have gained is common sense and credible knowledge concerning SBS.
First, SBS is a phrase that is used in connection with suspected child abuse. It is based on a triad of injuries connected to the head  / brain and neck. Many people have absorbed the possibility of a way to pin point a way to identify injuries that can be connected to abuse. The mere suspicion of abuse brings up a gauntlet  of support for innocent babies. (http://voices.yahoo.com/shaken-baby-syndrome-fading-time-12574345.html?cat=70)
The premise that a court room will filter out and arrive at a fair and just outcome is well basically “ignorant”. Our family court system is really messed up( http://voices.yahoo.com/family-court-12572300.html). Our court system in general is flawed. It has turned into more of a chess match where by the object is not so  much justice as it is doing whatever it takes to win. Be it lying, withholding evidence, stalling and so many other  legal loopholes in efforts to conceal facts.
Essentially, my opinion is that yes babies can and will  be  hurt by incompetent caregivers. It is a sad fact. Unfortunately it happens.
But, to ignore competent research in favor of false allegations and prosecution pursued in an attempt to win a case is insane. And needs to STOP! Any case that goes to family court or even criminal court that proposes to remove a child from its parents needs the up most care and sanctity.
So many ignore the mere mention of anything that discredits SBS. My years of experience in life have given me a perspective that simply says.”there is nothing wrong with being ignorant, only in wanting to stay that way”. Even at the risk of removing a child from its loving family. All on a basis  that some doctors and experts have held that the triad of injuries is irrefutable. If its so irrefutable why would well respected doctors with years of experience discount it? Does anyone really believe that there is a conspiracy a foot to protect those that would hurt a child? (http://voices.yahoo.com/child-abuse-accusations-no-place-mistakes-12531534.html?cat=9)
The human instinct to protect innocent babies is a strong advisory against those that only want true justice served. Until those that continue to adhere to outdated medical research,are convinced that not all caregivers are heartless out of control  stress related brutal child abusers, will the tide turn

American Academy of Pediatrics article

NO CIGAR American Academy of Pediatrics

http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2014/01/22/peds.2013-3793.full.pdf+html 

Article brings up some important items but still ignores the fact that there is no research on just infants age birth to 6 months. Thought it was strange that even with obvious cited research not showing less than 6 moths only, it still damned Dr. Millers for not having any infants under 5 months? Also, there is research available that concludes that birth injuries can cause CML type images, besides the ones sited in the article (breech and club conditions), Also of note, it makes it sound like rib injuries are specific for abuse and at the same time says that birth trauma may cause them. There is also research available that states that Shoulder Dystocia and high birth weight can be responsible for rib injuries. My point for venting is that even though the article has good things, like ensuring doctors check for all other possible conditions it fails in my opinion at clearing up some major issues for those accused of abuse when the infants presenting with suspicious injuries are less than 6 months. Thought it interesting that with the resent article doubting Dr Klienmans research on CML’s in the AJR that he was not cited. Yet CML’s were several times listed as abuse indicators.

 

Here are three articles I wrote since my family was devastated by the state of Oregon and the court system. We are still fighting the injustice. Our ordeal happened on Nov 8th 2011.
My goal is to some how, some way bring light to an otherwise dark secret. The subject is controversial and the majority of the population have little knowledge that anything is even wrong.

Until the public becomes aware and educated that sometimes …SOMETIMES… its not abuse! sometimes injuries that can occur from shaking can also be caused by other means.

District Attorneys and state case workers are so determined to justify their actions that they only focus on the negative instead of the child’s best interest. They acquire experts that will only see the old science evidence and argue that the new science is not any good? Really? everyone knows that the judge doesn’t want anything to do with cases involving child abuse, as he could make a bad opinion. What judges do is rely on the DA’s and the state to handle this and get it off of their docket,

http://www.acep.org/MobileArticle.aspx?id=82881&coll_id=720&parentid=

metaphyseal or epiphyseal fractures beyond the newborn period (also called corner fractures or bucket handle fractures) are virtually diagnostic of abuse.

If I read that right, during the newborn period metaphyseal (CML) are common in the newborn period?

BEWARE OF CHILD ABUSE EXPERTS! They are not supposed to be advocates for the children and they do not work for the state. Judges and juries need to know exactly what their role is. Also, make sure they do their job correctly!
