Ok so as most of you know i had my meeting at the hospital on monday. I didnt blog about it because i was really upset by the way it ended up. So now i have had time to cool down and im not feeling so bad about it as i know my doctor isnt mad with me.
Ok so the people that were supposed to be attending the meeting was myself , an advocate so they couldent gang up on me , Dr Ranjit & Karen (Matron)
I was expecting the advocate to be there waiting for me WRONG , WRONG , WRONG . Karen explained to me that my advocate could nt make the meeting oh bummer . So it was ME , Dr Ranjit , Karen and Dr Ranjits secretary (to write the letter reguarding meeting) .
My appointment was for 3pm the meeting actually started 3.05pm Karen asked me what i am not happy about my reply was all of it!!! It isnt an explanation really is it?? I accept the fact that they were busy ad there was no beds in gynae but i dop have a big issue with the fact she gave me back the remains of my baby in a specimen jar and i dont think that the reason i was given 'This was because she was unsure about the procedire to follow when a miscarriage happens in A&E and did not know anywhweere else in the department to leave the jar safely. ' this isnt acceotable this woman is a gynaecological doctor therefore she deals with miscarriages on a daily basis ? If she was unsure what she should have done with it she could have asked somebody instead of giving it to me . It is common sense not to give the parents . Then i get told the nurse gave it to you and for that she is deeply sorry you gave it to your partner after that ity was taken away. He is right aabout one thing it was taken away after barry saw it. I did kick off a bit i shouted rather loud thats a load of BU$%S*IT . When my partner returned i had it in my hand when i heard him i wrapped it in tissue and hid it under my arm SHE took it off me SHE gave it to him SHE was telling him all about my foetus!!!!! Dont believe me ask my partner ask my father!!
His excuse was why not he obviously wanted to see it or asked about it i said he asked why i was likei was that is all!!! He saiud why shouldent he see it ?? why would i wanyt him too ?? it was his baby too !!! Apparantly parentsoften like to see photographs etc . Well this wasnt a photograph this was the real thing same as whayt i canty get out of my head everyday from the time i wake up till the time i go to bed we didnt want to see it we didnt ask to see it.
I told them i want a face to face apology and i turned to Karen and said like YOU promised me on the phone. She argued this point i said yes you did!!!!! Well i have to believe that she is really sorry because they say so she doesent have to apologise because they do it for her . My point is in that case i dont know she is sorry therefore i cant findi t in myself to accept the apology, (this will make you laugh) The doctor is very very sorry for what she done now that she nows how you feel about this she is very very upset . SHES UPSET ?????????? How the hell do u think i feel does she have PTSD for something i done to her ???? Does she take medication to stop me sitting crying all day ? Does she take medicationto be able to go to sleep without remembering going to sleep? (it gets better) it took Dr Ranjit to beg her to come back to work she will never again give another mother their foetus if they wish to see it or not after what it done to me. and she asked for a transfer WOOPY DOO!!!!!!
Thisis where he started its hard to find gynaecoloigists to work and thats my problem because exactly why???
My patience was running out , He said shedid 1 thing wrong i cant expect him tto sack her i said no she did 2 things wrong . She also tried comforting me by saying 'Its ok its only a miscarriage . (for the record this was said beforei lost the foetus on the toilet ) He said no she never !!! Yes she did right ring my fatyher ring my partner right here on that phone go on . He refused your partner wasnt there he was outside most of the time !!! Umm i think NOT the only time he left my side was to get me some clothes cos he was told i had to stay overnight because of the blood loss bereing such high volume . Both my father and partner were there . I said or even better get her and ask her . He said he had and she never . Istarted shouting things about that day and i ended up having a panic attack and everything was a blur until ii left the room i said i needed a minute and ran out . I waa in the corridor a few mins later karen got me a cold drink and she said to me this meeting is doing me more damage than good. (apparantly Dr Ranjit stopped the meeting )
When i returned and Karen also Dr Ranjit asked if i have had any councelling since this happened ? I said yes i saw my doctor a few days later asked for councelling i saw the dr councellor and they couldent help me they put me on to cool recovery i had 1 session and she told me i should come here and tell you i forgive her whicvh i dont !! So now he has come up with the fact i am mad and he is written to my doctor to tell her about my behaviour in the meeting and his opinion of my mental state . I was meant to see the doctoe today but i forgot ,
I am now waiting fora letter to find out what they rekon was said in the meeting and they think it is over they areso so wrong but i will blog about that another time.
Vent over ,
