Can't Kill Captain Stupid

I hate to have to be so insulting. I wish we could just get along. I honestly do. Life would just be so much easier. And the good Lord knows that in my condition that the stress of harboring hatred is much worse than just accepting the SOB for who he is, etc. But I have no tolerance for ignorance and stupidity and those are like the only two personality traits that Lee Vai has left! So what do I do?

Here's the thing, see?....

He called me frantic about how sick my daughter was a few weeks ago when she was visiting with him for the weekend. He was insisting she see a Dr. right away because she was so ill. So I told him where he could take her. He didn't want to deal with it, he wanted to drop her off. He even tried to tell me that the Urgent Care told him that he didn't have the right to bring her in for treatment unless I was present. I had to call them myself to see if it was true. They told me that all they need is a verbal okay from me over the phone, so I gave it to them and had him take care of the responsibility that he drug me through court over.

Turns out she had a middle-ear infection. She had fluid in her ears. She was prescribed an antibiotic. Obviously, she's sick and not feeling well. He obviously thought so and felt that she needed to be seen at an Urgent Care on a Sunday. So what does he do after they leave Urgent Care? Take her back to a comfortable place to rest and get better right? NO! He's not a parent who is thinking of child's best interest, he wouldn't do anything responsible like that now would he? He's thinking of himself and what his girlfriend wants to do. Go to Red Rock Canyon and drive a child with fluid in her ears through elevation changes and burst her ear-drum permanently so that she can have hearing problems for the rest of her life. That's what Lee Vai did.

Yes, the Urgent Care said to follow-up with a Pediatrician. Today I took her to a Pediatrician. After I explained what we were there for, that she had finished her medication and was still sick, etc. she looked into her ears. Her first question to me was "Has she been through any altitude or elevation changes, airplane, mountains, or diving?" I told her that as soon as she left the Urgent Care after being diagnosed with having the fluid on ears, her bio-father took her up to Red Rock Canyon. She then told me that not only does she have fluid in both ears, middle-ear infections, but that her right ear (the main problem before) has blood pooling in the back of it and that it is highly abnormal and unusual for that happen and that she needs to be referred out to an Ear, Nose, Throat specialist right away. She may have permanent damage to ear drum, it may have been burst due to elevation while the fluid was present. She hasn't been able to hear hardly anything since she came back home after that weekend.

I'm sorry to be so negative about him, but I am so tired of her being sick because of his ignorance and I just am at such a loss right now. It's so frustrating to have to spend all my time with her trying to get her well again only for her to visit with him for only a few days and be returned to me to sick all over again. This has been an ongoing thing and she is sick all the time! I feel terrible for her and I am sick of it myself. It probably bothers me more than her, but I'm not really sure.

And to top it off, she almost got hit by a car while riding her bike because she couldn't hear the car. She came in very upset, scared, and crying her eyes out. Now she is afraid to ride her bike. Not that she can today anyways. The Dr. said she had a temp of 100. Which means she's sick, and it also means I have to keep her home from school tomorrow too. School District policy.
