And she's like, has Jessica reached out to you? I said, she texted me saying somebody from CPS was going to be reaching out to me. And, you know, I'm trying to figure out what she just said. She gave her too much medicine. She said she's been given her medicine when she didn't need it. And she's been overdosing her on it. She's been making her have these symptoms. And I'm like, what?
froze and I'm like whoa like it just caught me off guard like what do you mean like and come to find out you know she was giving her Benadryl that's all I knew of at that moment and she's like she's gonna be removed I need you to come you're gonna need to come up here to the hospital to stay with her the youngest so that you know, she's not, you know, or she'll be here by herself.
You know, we'll have, you know, somebody from CPI. I was like, no, I'll find, I'll get somebody to come sit with other kids and I'll be up there.
Yes. I was in shock. I was in a fog. I was like, it was like- The one thing you never think you're going to get hit, you know, up until this point, this whole disease, I had never heard. The only thing I'd ever heard about it was, you know, the gypsy rose. And I'd only seen a little bit of that. And I'll tell you now, most people don't know much about it at all. It's anything.
And so I was at, I was one of those people and I'm like, I didn't even know this is what it was really go, you know, going that way. But so Jessica didn't have a vehicle with her. So I had to go pick her up and she couldn't be around the other kids either. So she had to go to a hotel room. Her uncle got her in a hotel room.
I went and picked her up from cooks and took her over there the whole way over there. I'm like, I'm, I'm like questioner. I'm like, what, what are you, what, what is like, why? Um, So at this point, when all this happened, we were living with her aunt because we had to be supervised.
Really, she had to be supervised because one time when I was out of town for work, we'd been living with her aunt about a year, not even quite a year, eight, seven, eight months. I was out of town. I get a call from her saying, hey, I had to run to Dollar General. We were at the grandmother's house at the time. She said, hey, I had to run down the road to Dollar General.
And while I was gone, the youngest got a hold of some of my grandmother's Ambien. And so we're rushing her to the ER to get her stomach pumped. Well, because of that, the hospital has to report. So CPS is like, hey, since you left her with your grandmother and your grandmother isn't in the best of health. You're not making good judgment.
You either we're going to take the kids or you can go stay with somebody that we approve that will supervise you.
Yes. Maybe a few months less than a year, but somewhere around in there.
So we went and stayed, we moved into the aunt's house so we could be supervised for, I can't remember how long it had to be for six months to a year or something like that. So now fast forward on the ride to that hotel. I'm like, why? And she's like, I've been telling you, like, I just need, we need to, I need to get out of there. I can't stand my aunt. Like she's on me and I was depressed. And
This is the only way I knew how to act out and get people's attention. And it got me out of the house, taking her here. And I'm like, that's that is no reason at all. Like, that's no excuse. So instead, you want to harm your kid to get everybody to get away? Like, okay, say you need to get away. I will watch the kids go. But, you know, that's all I ever got.
He's trying to sort of justify the behavior, which is completely unjustifiable, right? It was my fault because I didn't get us out of there. Um, I think it was six or eight months we had to do it. So we, our time had just, you know, been out for a month or two. I was trying to find a place, but we hadn't found one yet. And so I'm like, you're not putting this on me.
You're, you're not, you're not putting this on me. Like never in a million years. Can I do this? Never in a million years did I think you would do this? Right. Yeah. Who would harm their kid?
Yeah. I never in a million years would go to like thinking about harming my kids. So I go up, get to the hospital. And I'm sitting there and she's doing a lot better. My youngest is doing a lot better. She wants to go to the playroom. We go to the playroom, we play. The nurses say she's doing a lot better. So the way they found out was,
they were doing blood tests and they did one, it came back with Benadryl in the system and it came back, they did a second just to verify and there was still Benadryl. If it was like a one, you know, had given her some before she came in, It would have been out of system for the second one. So that's how they knew. So they started watching video.
And every time she would take her to the bathroom, she would carry her purse with her. So every time they would come out of the bathroom, 30 minutes to an hour later is when she'd start declining. So my I get her, you know, so I'm there that night. Next day, the next afternoon, we get to leave. I get her home. And from that point on, she just she kept getting better and kept getting better.
It wasn't on any medicine. It was a few days later, two days, I had to go up there and meet with, I had to take them all up to Cook's. The three girls, I had to take them, the oldest and the two youngest, up to Cook's to meet with, it's this doctor they have in there and she's checking them out, making sure, you know, like how they're doing.
Yeah, Dr. Dr. Kaufman. Kaufman, yes. So go in there. She's talking to them. She's checking them out and she pulls me to the side. We go talk and she's like, starts telling me these things that the video that she had sent me and my mother, she never showed the hospital when she said she did. The actual EEGs didn't show anything. Come to find out the oldest one
They had never really saw much of anything on any of her tests. So for, at this time, she was 12. So for 11 years, she's had epilepsy that she didn't have.
