Nobody Should Believe Me
Case Files 16: Mom and Dad

And then I contacted a couple of the doctors and I went to a doctor's appointment with her and her son. And What she heard and what I heard was completely different. She was really pushing for a G-tube at that time. And I think I only babysat him once when he was very young and he just screamed the entire time. And looking back on it, I realized it was because he was hungry.

I contacted a pediatrician that she was seeing and a GI doctor that she was seeing and started to sort of say that something's wrong. And in that process, of course, we all went to see our family doctor and talked to her because there was no information out there, really. I'd heard about Munchausen's by proxy in some TV movie or something. And that's about it.

And of course, the rest is history.

But when we put, yes, she put a name to it. When we put all the pieces together that, you know, from her childhood on up, all of a sudden the puzzle came together. And Dr. Druckmann was very helpful, believed us, and she gave us the name of somebody at Children's who was on, there's a committee. A scan team? Yeah, probably a scan team. And I contacted that person.
