I watched this late Tuesday night while my 2 daughters, 12 and 4, were asleep and while hearing the moms voice frustrated trying to talk to her daughter on the phone alone at the hospital just made my heart ache. I just hugged and kissed both my girls imagining her pain. If the mom had been the "calm" one (for lack of a better word) then the dad would've been the one freaking out. But because she took the reins of trying to fight for her child, they made it look like she was the bad abusive parent. And how they tried to turn dad against her!!! Ugh I was disgusted. Just dr sally smiths face alone with her angry eyebrows during her interviewing just gave me the picture in my mind of what she was like in her position at work: total power trip POS. Did this story surprise me? Nope. I can totally see it. Doctors who think they know better than parents is such an old story. I went thru such a horrible traumatizing experience with my oldest daughter when she was born that dealt with idiot drs not listening to moms intuition. My baby had pneumonia and when I took her into the ER I swear the guy gaslit me as a "young new mom who was paranoid." I took my baby home and that night she stopped breathing, was dying, rushed her back and her oxygen was at 60%. I was literally JUST THERE THAT day and they sent me home! My baby almost died but thankfully recovered in the ICU miraculously (3 week old preemie with pneumonia) so yeah it was crazy. I just got depressed at the hospital watching my baby hoping for her to get better. I kept thinking of that day I took her in saying something wasn't right, she was lethargic, not eating, etc. And I was sent home. Obviously compared to this, my story is less traumatizing. I mean just imagining this story alone gave me anxiety so I have no idea how this family copes thru it all. And all of it because of some power trippy dr?! She thinks she's saving children left and right from abusive homes when SHE is the one causing pain and distress in a family...man, someone has to set that woman straight! I hope she gets what she deserves. Poor Mayas mom knew the only way her daughter could go home free was if she was gone. Wow just so sad. So so sad.
