It is not wrong to say that the death of 19 children at the end of the year is the biggest tragedy of 2022. In the list of children who died after taking Dok-1 Maks syrup, there is also a child of a family living in Kitab district of Kashkadarya region. Kun.uz interviewed the girl’s mother.
On November 2, 2022, 2-year-old Ezoza had symptoms of a cold, and her mother took her to a multidisciplinary children’s hospital in Kitab district.
Doctor prescribed Dok-1 Maks syrup
“The doctor on duty said that my daughter had a cold and prescribed Dok-1 Maks syrup and antipyretic medicine. I strictly follow the doctor’s instructions. Because I am a pedagogue, a high-class teacher.
But soon my daughter started to lose appetite and weakness. When I again applied to the district and regional children’s hospitals, they said that we should go to Samarkand, where there is a hemodialysis machine.
Doctors at the multidisciplinary children’s hospital in Samarkand were surprised: “We have not been prescribing Dok-1 Maks syrup for 2 years, but unfortunately they are still prescribing it in the districts”.
In Samarkand, the specialists tried their best. But on November 28, at 06:00 in the morning, my child died.
She had a right to live…
My daughter kept on calling me until her last breath. Doctors tried to save, help. But all her organs had already been poisoned.
Some blame the mothers. We had to make our child drink someone’s poison with our own hands, hoping for recovery. My child suffered so much... She hit herself on devices, could not get out of them, struggled. First, her kidneys failed, gradually her lungs failed, and it became difficult for her to breathe. Then her heart started to stop, but she still wanted to live. She had a right to live…
From November 22 to November 28, she struggled to release the poison from her body.
Punishment of selfless doctors from Samarkand is injustice
We are on the list of dead children. But no one has contacted us to date: neither the district, nor the region, nor the prosecutor’s office.
It would be a mistake to blame everyone. There are selfless doctors out there. For example, I saw in the Samarkand medical association: they do not sleep. They stand at the head of the sick child without sleeping at night. Also, I saw the doctors sitting indifferently.
I want those responsible for the death of children to be punished. I want the people responsible for the entry of these drugs to leave their jobs, not the doctors who are working and contributing to the patient’s recovery. I want them to be prosecuted.
Why should the child of ordinary people suffer?
Raising a child is not easy. Allegedly, they are all minors - one is a baby, the other is a 4-year-old boy. If he was born, then he is a member of this society. Why should the child of ordinary people suffer?
I believed that she would become a very good person. She was born when I was 40 years old. My child, who was born 12 years after my two children, was our joy. I lost this joy because of someone’s fault, indifference. I have a body - my soul died with my child. It is very bad to carry my living child and bring back her dead body”.
