I have a 14 year old autistic stepdaughter that caught a bad virus (diarrhea & vomiting) and is on her 10th day of hospitalization with KIDNEY FAILURE, due to the virus and her being so sick. She has produced no urine. Doctors are giving her kidneys another week to produce urine on their own, if not, they will then do a kidney biopsy. Due to her autism and aggressive behavior, she is sedated and has been sedated the whole time. To help you understand ALITTLE bit of her aggressiveness... she HATES routine doctor visits, will NOT TOLERATE even a band-aid on her and has never allowed nurses to take her bood pressure. SO right now, we are facing her having to come home on dialysis to keep her alive. Which is still not a good thing, because she will tear her catheder out and bleed to death.
What it is I want to know, is there ANY HOSPITAL and/or DOCTOR that specializes in AUTISM and KIDNEY Failure, ANYWHERE in the US???
PLEASE HELP!!!! and PLEASE KEEP MORGAN IN YOUR PRAYERS!
