Suggest Ways To Care For A Child With Heart Trouble, Asthma And Seizures
I have a disable child that is about to be taken from our home by social services and they are nit looking at the medical issues that he has. He has heart trouble, asthma, seizures and he has other medical issues. the social claim that they are removing him to a group home because of bedbugs that we encountered thru someone that was working with him. what is something that would help me to fight against this? I am truly afraid that if they take him away...I will have to end up burying him.

Hi
Welcome to the HCM
In my opinion, you can handle each issue mentioned in your question in the following ways:
1. For bed bugs: declutter beds and vaccine clean all the stuff. There are several products on the market that work well for bed bugs:
Apply residual liquid, aerosol or dust residual insecticides such as Temprid Ready Spray Aerosol, Optimate CS, D-Fense SC, Cimexa Dust , D-Fense SC, Alpine PT Aerosol, Transport Mikron, Temprid SC, Bedlam Plus Aerosol, and Phantom Aerosol.
It is best to use a combination of these products for application purposes.
Keep your child in clean surroundings because, asthma and other infections flare up with dust, dirt, and infestations.
2. For heart trouble, management depends upon the diagnosis. You can consult a pediatric cardiologist for it.
3. Asthma needs first and foremost removal of allergens in the surroundings of the kid. You can use steroids inhalers, beta 2 blockers, leukotriene antagonists depending on his clinical stage of asthma and response to treatment.
4. Similarly for seizure, we can suggest you treatment only once we know about his reasons, type of seizures and response to the current medications.
Take care
