No electric and child has asthma!?

Question

My biological father has used my name for utilities including electric and i now have a bill. I moved to a new place and my two year old has asthma and requires a breathing machine. The elctric company will not turn my power on because of the bill. The doctor even faxed something to them stating he needs power on plus I have a newborn anyone think this is wrong? I have filed a police report against him and everything and he is not considered my father since my step father adopted me when I was younger and he went and got my birth certificate and everything court house never destroyed old one

Answer 1

Electric and gas companies usually do not care. And how they can get away with it is beyond me. I have a daughter with emphysema and they tell me to make other arrangements if we lose power due to a storm or the inability to pay a bill. We also have documentation. She has a very large O2 machine. We also have nebualizers in the house since the rest of us have asthma - but they say those are portable so take them with you ! I wish I had a solution for you rather then a story to share. I would per sue it legally against your father and the utility company. Good luck and God Bless.

Answer 2

Your child should have a MDI with a mask/spacer for emergencies.

I would ask your doctor for one ASAP.
