That dentist should be struck off, I hope the child's parents are
suing for incompetence, malpractice, discrimination, physical and
mental anguish etc.  That poor little boy.  The cruelty, stupidity and
inhumanity of so many of the able-bodied community - especially the
medical profession terrifies me.  Sometimes I just don't know how it
is possible to survive in this world with things like that happening.
I used to think I was paranoid for feeling like the world was trying
to destroy people with disabilities.  Maybe I'm not.

    I heard from a lady in the Chicago area. She tries to help people find
    dentists that can work with CP and other disabilities. She told me a story
    that horrifies me ... there was a little boy whose Mom went to 3 different
    dentists, finally she settled for one of them. They agreed to sedate her son
    who has CP & is mildly retarded, and they agreed to do just a deep cleaning
    .... well, the dentist changed his mind in the middle of it, and took out ALL
    his front teeth! ARGGHHH!!!
