Please, think for my little boy...

[psimonl]

Yesterday, at 10:30 am, the daycare center where my little 2 years old boy Ludovic goes call me at work to tell me he has picked up a syringe with blood in it and that maybe he stepped on it because there was a little bruise with blood under his little right foot.
We live in a big city (not by choice) and drug users are every where.
We went to Ste-Justine (A children hospital in Montreal) and he now is on AZT for a month. It's the main drug used in tri-therapy for aids. He's only two...
He also had a schock treatment for B hepatitis. As for A and C, there is no real treatment... There is not enough blood in the serynge he found to test for any of these sickness, but enough to get in his blood...
he will be tested several time for six months. My girlfriend is taking a month off 'cause the side effects could be very violent.
In the 147 similar cases in the past ten years, none of the children were infected (that is on what I'm hanging to...)
I am not a believer in any sort of god. But I believe in the power of the will.
please, have a thought for my boy...

I'm with Ron... I'll say one for him and the family.

[HoB]

That's bad news!! I hope everything works out alright. All the best to all of you three!

[TazKristi]

There are no words... you have all of us here at Spyderco thinking of your son and wishing him the best of health. We'll be thinking of you too. It's unimagineable what you must feel, feel free to share and get it off your chest whenever you need.

It sounds like you are doing the right thing to put him on prophyllactic medication, Simon. I too pray he will be well.

[Jim Malone]

been there, it's an enormous strain the waiting period till the test clear. Make shure he is tested now, and within a month for HIV. I never understood why those junks throw away their needles where people and children play.. :mad:

Smoke and prayers are on the way friend

[Simon G]

Simon,

This is a horrorifying tale. I sincerly hope that all turns out well for your son, you and your family.

God bless,

Simon.

[greencobra]

Simon, my thoughts are with your son. Such a tragic thing for him to go through.

[Andyjd]

You have my thoughts and best wishes

[Gerard Breuker]

My best wishes to your son, you and the rest of your family of course.
Having to go through these tests and having to take this kind of medicine at his age because of such an incident is horrible.

[Hannibal Lecter]

My Dear Friend,

Sincerest prayers for your little boy.

Thoughts and prayers sent.

[Winston Wolf]

Hope everything tuns out ok for him.

[Titus]

Psimonl, I will pray for all of you during this hard time. :

[smcfalls13]

There is nothing I could possible say to you that would alleviate the anguish you are going through, but know that you and your son will be in my prayers. :o

Such a thing shouldn't happen, and I pray that your son will be just fine.
