Memphis in 24 hours

So in 24 hrs the story has gone from the nurse abused him broke his leg, back and caused a brain bleed. Nobody knew the nurses name or the home health that sent her. She knew the company that sent her but the hospital didn't so they were investigating (why couldn't she just tell them?) because another hospital hired her. They didn't know the nurses last name because she never signed the chart only initialed it. Then someone mentioned another child that brittle bone disease. Shortly after when everyone was questioning the absurdity of nobody being able to find this nurse(as you all have read) he was diagnosed with brittle bones. So we go to today when I was gone and I don't have copies. People continued to question this new diagnosis and her story and suddenly the story changes again and now his leg and back aren't broken it is 'shadows on the x-ray'. People continue to question. She gets very defensive and starts attacking those questioning saying that they don't understand anything about children who have gone through a transplant. "Kristina do you know anything about ba or transplant? I guess not cause you would know it causes brittle bones,breaks, and internal and brain bleeds."

To which that lady responded "If this is the case and you know these things then why did you lead the rest of us to believe that he was abused and/or mistreated by a home health nurse? You never told anyone that any of these things could be caused by his transplant. You only had everyone believe that the nurse hurt him without pointing out the facts of the other side of the coin!"

Suddenly all posts are GONE. Everything since he was released from the hospital. Hmmm Think someone has something to hide? And who looses here. Memphis. I think we have a STRONG case of either Munchausen by proxy or Munchausen by Internet on our hands. I am praying for Munchausen by internet personally and she isn't actually physically injuring this child just telling stories online.

and now another person mentions he could be diagnosed with something that would explain brittle bones and low and behold he was diagnosed with it today! after she said he didn't have brittle bones earlier today.

Mark as SpamReport as AbuseLisa Beatty For those who wonder about brittle bones (sorry Nicole, delete if you need to), there's a good bet that Memphis will be/has been disagnosed with a condition called osteopenia that often affects preemies, which would explain having brittle bones.

I have faith for you guys that happily ever after is almost here...you hav...e a resilient strong little guy who I bet is very ready to begin properly enjoying being part of a family of six and get on with the rest of his life.

Memphis-I missed a thread

Well a girl leaves her computer for a day and people start calling Nicole (mom) out on inaccuracies in the story and Nicole pulls all her posts from the page. Must pull all evidence. This is why I like to copy and paste people. Once again I will ask you to copy stuff you see when you see it just in case I am not around! Just highlight (and on facebook scroll through the thread and click on any "see more" at the end of any longer comments) the entire thread and copy it to word or most of you know me on FB just copy it into a PM there.

So lets cut to Nicole saying she will no longer be posting updates because of all the "mean people"

Praying for Memphis
Posts were deleted because I am tried of always having to defend myself for stuff that is out of my control.. There will be no more updates..

Jamie Workman Anderson Why not make a blog and then close off comments? You can blog without ever having to accept comments. Is that a possibility. I hope Memphis is doing better today.

Dana Linger Listen, the only people that are important are those you love. If you have their support then you have everything you need there. Stay true to yourself. But, you have to remember that so many people have put their hearts into other stories ...and the ended up feeling deceived. Everybody needs to put themselves into the other persons shoes and give this family the benefit of your doubt. It will only benefit Memphis to have a mommy who isn't mad from things on here....right? Just prove everybody wrong is what I pray for along with Memphis' health and happiness. People don't know you personally so they may feel different than someone who knows you. In this day and time, it is hard to trust people. Lets just try and trust. I hope I didn't say anything to offend, that is not my purpose. I just want everyone to understand how each other may be feeling. When a baby is involved, it is so hard not to feel protective on either side. Love you lil Memp!See More

Val J. Bicanovsky Sorry you have to keep defending yourself against naysayers. I wish there was some way you could keep this page without having some much negativism. Some of us truly care about Memphis and have followed his progress and have prayed faithfully for the little guy. I wish you and your family the best and please try to find a way to keep us updated on his progress.

Marie Musgrove Welsh I hope you rethink this. There are many of us that are praying for him and want to know how he (and you) are doing. I hope that he heals quickly from these injuries, I also hope that the nurse is found.

D.j. Huntley it is sad that you feel the need to stop posting about Memphis to keep those of us who are truly concerned. what goes around comes around...their day will come....as for my daughter and i we will keep praying for Memphis and your family...I know the ignorance and the cruelty of some folks as my daughter had a baby at 26 wks and a lot of people kept saying " well if she did not do drugs" and that was not the case.

Diana Homewood Drayton I do not know you, but I work with your cousin Christina. I have been following little Memphis's and pray for him and your family. He has gone through a lot and seems such a touch guy despite his trials. I know that God has big plans for him. Please blog just to let us know how he is doing even if you need to block rude comments. His photos with his big smile always make me smile! :)

Lisa Beatty I can't say I can fault you at all. In theory this should be a safe place in which for you to find support and when you get the opposite of support from some, how it must discourage you when you need words to lift you up. I am so sorry. :(

Trina Merrell-Deniro I'm sorry, and I will miss the updates hope you will continue so that people really concerned will be able to know how he and you guys are doing.

Praying for Memphis Nicole, I say just ignore the comments that bother you and if you don't respond to them, they will eventually quit... they want that aggravated response... pretend that you don't see them, skip over their posts...even though I know it is ha...rd and it hurts... but it hurts more if you respond and they make more negative comments... and the back and forth thing...then those who really are concerned can still give the encouragement and prayers that are needed... it's just an idea... Memphis and your family are in so many daily prayers and there are so many who really do care and think of your family as part of their family now... he is a true inspiration to so many of us. :) CharSee More

Jennifer Flynn If your tired of hearing the world's opinion, I totally understand. Sometimes you just need support from people who truly know you. I will continue to pray for Memphis. I will miss the updates, but you deserve peace after the ordeal you have been through more than anyone wanting a update. Do what you need to for your family. No one is owed anything for praying.

Sharon Warrick I agree with ignoring those who make such inconsiderate comments, there is in no way, shape or form that you should EVER have to defend yourself. You and Memphis and your entire family have been through enough! I don't know you personally... either but I have followed Memphis' progress and am interested in seeing that he make it through all of these things. Hugggsss to you and that little baby and your entire family!! I can tell just from everything I have ever read that you are a wonderful mother!! You can always bet you will receive support from me!
