Updated: Dear worst decision maker, EVER Woman, Who happens to be the mother of my step-son.

Oh, there is LOTS I want to say and I should totally say it because everyone would probably agree with half the shit that I REALLY want to say if they knew what you do/have done in the past. Most notably making my husband miserable right before he and I married and being a negligent mother. but won't because I am much more civilized than that and what's the point in drudging up a bunch of crap that you KNOW you've already done. Seriously, it would just embarrass you anyhow and that's not the main point in this letter.

My main point is this: What you are doing to that poor child is pure neglect. Who in their right mind let's their child wander around all year long miserable? Oh, wait, you do. He is having to walk around sick or with allergies or whatever it is he has for months on end because you are settling for one pediatrician's opinion. The poor child cannot breathe and he snores when sleeping (which by the way is not normal for a 3.5 year old and I know I'm not a doctor and all, but not rocket science to figure that one out).

You have no excuse. He (through his dad) has the best insurance coverage of any major company out there, you get a phat (YES I did just spell it with a "ph"!) child support check each month and you don't work full-time (the last time I heard) so what exactly is your excuse? It's not that you don't have the insurance, money or time - so, really? What could be your excuse?

Get off your lazy ass and take that child to a specialist. Or will we have to do it just like we've had to take care of everything else?

A good mom would research and take him to as many specialists as needed until a solution is found.

That is just a little nugget of what I would like to tell you.

Cheerios,
Marisa

P.S. You should have treated your then-husband better since I've found out for myself that he's a wonderful dad and husband.

P.P.S. I'm drinking some damn good wine right now.

Updated: So, this post may have offended some people and for that, sorry. Although, I do reserve the right to vent here (after all, that's exactly what the header on this blog says). Even still, perhaps a bit harsh, plus I had a bit of wine in my system. Plus, I forgot to leave out that my poor step-son has been on antibiotics almost a handful of times this year already (and we're only in July!). A more fun post to be on here soon...
