Classic parent moment of crying and guilt-tripping the moment they can't blame/be mad at you for whatever happened
i think they do have genuine regret and remorse for their actions HOWEVER it still doesn’t excuse their previous behavior and the only person who can decide whether to forgive them is the one they hurt
You guys are oblivious. The parents are showing favoritism. They like their daughter more than their son. The son I hated by the parents while the daughter sees her brother as a nice person.
No. Sorry, not sorry. You don't get to blame your son for your daughter's passing and then act like everything traumatizing that you did to your son while he's screaming for help never happened. You didn't listen. Or even TRY to listen. Favoritism with children is one of the most damaging things you could ever do to a human.
I agree
I hate favoritism I hate it, I know it's a show but this stuff happens in families
@@jldog134 yeah
It happened to me.
No matter how well I did in school, I would always be compared to my sister. I could never measure up. So I stopped trying in school because it felt like nothing I did was good enough to not be compared to her.
If I made a mistake, I got yelled at. If my sister made a mistake, my parents would treat it as if it wasn't her fault.
As parents we are human. And we make mistakes...sometimes those mistakes have lasting effects. We try the best we can and fail..miserably sometimes. But a good parent recognizes their mistakes, apologizes, and works to be better
Poor patient wound up on the wrong show. House would have put it away both the patient's illness/diagnoses and both parents' attitudes as well.
Exactly 😂
Man, I miss House...
😂
She showed up in the wrong show. Good one.
🤣
Wow, he became a drug addict trying to heal himself...... it probably was the only thing that kept him alive the whole time 😳
People with mental disorders do this, too, especially those with schizophrenia and bipolar.
My former pastor's daughter had cancer. She craved coca cola. Of course you satisfy your dying child. She would drink 20 cans per day. When they got her into her cancer doctor, it was crazy. Some acid in the coke had saved her life. I don't remember exactly what the acid did, but it involved what the cancer was doing. They got 2 more years with their daughter thanks to a coca cola craving.
@@WandaGale66coca cola helps the stomach in some way
It’s far more common than you think obviously not every person who gets into drugs does it for this reason, but a lot of people do get into drugs for this reason whether they have mental health issues or actual physical health issues that are causing the bane, they will use the high of the drugs, to not feel the pain from whatever is causing the pain it’s something that really made me think not not necessarily everyone gets into these addictions because they want to but it’s the only way that they think that they can cope. For example Eric looked at Dr. Choi and said oh it’s that simple. He probably didn’t realize that he could just ask for help because in a lot of places, my hometown, including sometimes it’s hard to find help for things like you and Celtie Coats think that the only way to keep themselves from feeling the pain is to just keep going down this path which is really sad honestly
@@samg873 which is so weird because I’ve seen videos of people using it to clean toilets and filters and literally dissolve nails and metal in Coca-Cola but yet somehow it helps your stomach. It must be some thing that makes with your stomach acid because I swear every time nauseous whenever I take a sip of Coca-Cola, my nausea starts to subside. I can’t drink a lot of it, but just a small sip helps with my nausea for some reason it’s so confusing because I love me how Coca-Cola can help the stomach, but be so potent that it can literally dissolve nails and metal
Her death meant something... it caused her brother to get diagnosed, start towards getting the help he needed, and started a healing journey between him and his parents. I know it's just a tv show, but damn.
still doesn't excuse the parents behavior towards him
@@takumi2023they made a mistake. Honestly most drug addicts become that way out of want not self medicaring
@@samg873 most drug addicts has underlying issues either mentally or physically. Parents should know better.
@@sashinirathnayake7352 well when he steals from them to get money for more drugs are they supposed to be happy? Gotta think of all sides and he could have told them very early on why he did it but he didn't so he made drugs a want not a necessity.
Its horrible to scold your son at this hard time of losing his close sister
As an addict myself currently going sober off my drug of choice, I genuinely despise people who assume that all drug addicts are horrible people. We’re not. We’re broken people desperately trying to medicate ourselves with whatever we’ve found that works. We’re people in pain that are doing the best we can with whatever helps. I’m so grateful that I’ve had a strong support system for the decade or so that I was in active addiction. A mother who, despite being something of an enabler, always cared and wanted the best for me, never judged me or made me feel lesser. Friends who pushed me to seek treatment and held me accountable for bettering myself. Partners who have supported me through everything even if they didn’t know how to help. Without these people and their love in my life, I would still be getting high all day every day. I’d still be spending every cent I could get my hands on to get my drug of choice. Eric never deserved their scorn and metabolic disorder or not, he would never get better with their judgment and without their love and support.
Cool. But he has a history of stealing from them. The best predictor of future behaviour is past behaviour. They have every right not to trust him. That being said assuming he drugged her is ubsurd
@@rdgloveshouse especially when you consider that the doctors told them time and time again that her test were clear she had no narcotics in her system no drugs the truth of the matter is, they were easier to blame than to forgive easier to look at him as being the reason that his sister is dead rather than if he had been sent to a hospital in the first place when he got high to try to find out why he was getting high, they might have actually been able to know this… sometimes parents just don’t want to see what they can’t deal with or what they can’t really understand. They don’t even make the effort sometimes.
Hugs to you my friend. You stay strong!❤️
Keep fighting. 😊
I emphasize so much with addicts because I know how quickly I could become one. I have severe ADHD and thus have strong addictive tendencies and very poor self control. I've had addictions to things other than drugs and alcohol and so I will not touch them. I'm 29 and still haven't touched them even with me having multiple chronic pain conditions...I won't touch anything addictive
Me, as the brother, would let my parents suffer with their guilt for some time.
Exactly!
Honestly same
I would have walked away
Heck no I wouldn't have accepted their hugs and apologies so easily! They pretty much played favorites then casted him to the side as a drug addict without listening to him smh
I see a broken family. That needs to heal. We also can be sick without knowing it.
Absolutely 🥹😢
My favorite Uncle was sick for months without knowing it. We just didn’t realize until he got food poisoning at some fancy joint in Colorado. We weren’t worried about it during his 3-day hospital stay because he’s pulled through crazier things with worse odds. But what we didn’t know was that it actually kicked off a whole cascade of unexpected complications that even I barely understand. Something about a mass and dead spots and uncontrollable blood clots in his colon😫, bottom line: everyone thought he was healthy as 10 horses, but he was actually a medical meltdown just waiting to happen. After a full night of surgery, the doctors just decided he was beyond salvation😮💨😢😓
Now he’s gone forever😞😢😭
Great, scapegoat the 1 child you have left...
As a survivor of parental favoritism, I understand what the deug addict son was going through.
Those parents do not deserve their son.
no you can’t just scream at your son all his life and call him worthless and then turn around and act ~so sooo sorry~ when his sister’s dead and his illness is your fault. you can’t just do that. you have to think over how you’ve treated him and try to fix it. you can’t just act like you did a little oopsie
I agree with you on most of what you said, but how is their disease the parents' fault? It's a genetic disease! It's not like fetal alcohol syndrome or something that you can absolutely blame the parent for. No one chooses their genes.
Omg… the look on his face when his parents went to hug him. Absolute disbelief. You can really feel the emotions. The relief and bittersweet joy of finally getting the comfort and support of his parents, and at a time when he truly needed it most. He’s gonna be okay now. None of them will ever feel complete without the loved one they lost, but they can rebuild their connections and become a family again.
Yeah I'm sure there will be no resentment for decades of mistreatment, always being put down to raise someone else up
And absolutely no feelings of inadequacy or inferiority from being a "back up/consolation prize"
You're delusional if you think that family will ever be ok
@@mrroboshadow i never said the family would be okay, i said *he* would be okay. and by that i don't mean he won't still have a lot of scars from everything. before he was kicked out of his home, learned that his sister died and by extension he also lost the one person who truly saw him for who he was, along with his drug addiction and being entirely alone. now, he has his parents back, he'll have a home, he'll have support. i'm not saying everything is gunna be sunshine and rainbows now. he clearly already has an inferiority complex and a whole mess of other baggage. being treated the way he was, has already left a lot of damage and that'll never go away. but a lot of the time, kids just want their parents. those who were mistreated still love their parents, and they will often stay in the toxic environment, simply because there is a psychological comfort by being with them. you think that i believe the parents can erase everything they've done? because there's no way they ever could. but do you think Eric would've felt any better if the parents apologized but then left because they knew their previous actions were wrong and figured they shouldn't even try and make up for everything they could've done? of course they never should've treated their son that way to begin with, but why hate them to the extent that you can't even think about what Eric wants?
@@carenxatu5962this is so true. Even if its toxic at times many of us still go back
I'd have a drug problem too with parents like that.
The parents are assholes
yeah
Wow, just wow. It’s so sad they quickly jumped to the conclusion that her brther tried to kill her.
brother*
@@caspercascade4623 no it’s her bf ? Nvm srry my mistake 🥲
It's hard enough for parents to one day hear that their child had died.
But to actually go to the hospital just to see them die, It's a scar for life.
What horrible parents. That boy should've left
Eric is a better person than I am.
If only parents like this came around for real, but they don't. Eric deserved compassion and a family, but those parents did not. And in all likelihood in real life, these turn-arounds are just acts for strangers.
These parnets are so rude
ikr tell me about it
This is so unrealistic! As someone with a metabolic disorder I know there is no way it’s diagnosed in the ED For me it took years of life-threatening symptoms (seizures, food intolerances, feeding tubes) and many ICU stays before they finally figured out it was a metabolic disorder.
And that’s including having my brother die from what’s speculated to be the metabolic disorder we don’t know if it’s same bc his autopsy was botched and it was in the early 90s before they really understood genetic medicine and many of the metabolic disorder that are diagnosed these days
Hey! I am also someone with a metabolic disorder (non-fatal). I have a biomedical science background and actually just finished a school project on propionic acidemia (which I originally thought this clip was about, a lot of these IEMs result in similar symptoms lol). I was just wondering what disorder you have?
ive seen this clip so many times and didnt realize it was posted 16 MINUTES AGO
You’re high, aren’t you?
I wouldnt forgive them.
That’s evil I can’t just blame ur son that’s pure evil that can damage then so much if u have a favourite child and it’s poor parenting no kid should be put through that 😢😭😡
Such a broken family……..💔
So the doctors somehow missed no blood getting to her brain. That... seems like something you'd want to be sure of, isn't it? It's one of the biggest deals since the brain is the most resource-hungry organ in the body.
Probably a non-contrast CT, looking for damage. Contrast CT shows blood flow but some people can't have it due to what it takes to clear it from your body and or allergy (Shell fish and iodine mostly).
um, no? they didn’t “miss” no blood getting to her brain. there was no reason to do a brain workup.
Parents acting like a kid becoming a drug addict wasnt caused by them probably and blatant favouritism and bullying their son
People can't help you if you don't speak up.
_"That's_ your kid? *_Shame on you."_*

To those "parents", you're raising children. Human beings.
Not comparing prices in a sale.
So inadventebtky or not the parents did have a small part in the death of their kid, like I get it was her decision to be vegan and there’s nothing wrong it but it did lead her to die because of the condition her parents gave her. It’s pretty ironic this episode
It was passed on by the mother who would never have known until the daughter became ill and veganism is a choice while passing on a genetic condition without ever knowing you have it is not.
Her going vegan was what kept her healthy for this long. What killed her was that she neglected herself, went without eating, and her body started breaking down her muscles which poisoned her.
You kicked your kid out, sorry nothing.
l Feel so Sad For Thier Daughter is Died Poor Famliy 😢😢😢❤❤❤🤧🤧🤧😭😭😭
Did they even eknowlegde the massive bump the daughter had
Yes, they did. When the doctors came in, they told the parents she collapsed in the bathroom hitting her head. They did a scan and didn't find any brain injuries.
It's was just a bruse
@@tomedy_official have you ever seen a bruise
@@esmerayofficialyt I've had plenty
@tomedy_official
That's not just a bruise, and bruises don't look like that. Bruising is discoloration due to hematomas.
That's an actual knot on her forehead.
This scenario seems... implausible. The daughter wouldn't have come out of the womb a vegan so there was a period of time--possibly a long one--where she was eating a BLT or a hot dog or a McDonalds hamburger and getting sick. Ditto with the brother. And in all that time the parents never once noticed such a simple association between "eat food" and "get sick"? Either these parents adopted teens, they're the most obtuse possible people... or the scenario is very contrived.
It’s super unlikely but could be possible. My parents were vegetarian when they had kids, raised my brother and I as vegetarians until we were old enough to choose for ourselves. They said protein not sure if that exclusively proteins from meat or other food too. Kids can be picky eaters, many like simple foods (pasta), sweet foods (fruits), and don’t like hard to chewy foods (meats). Animals can instinctually know when foods they should and shouldn’t eat, not all but our bodies try to communicate with us. I always put tons of salt on my food, when I cut down (trying to healthier in high school) I started fainting. I was diagnosed with an autonomic disorder called POTS. One major symptom is chronic low blood pressure, my body and preferences (tons of salt) were keeping the condition under some control by raising my blood pressure.
So the girls body was telling her something but it just seemed like a preference. The boy didn’t have the same intuition so he’d eat, have pain, and later self medicated.
Also the parents are so awful and so stupid. Acting like they had nothing to do with how their son was raised and it’s entirely his fault he’s using is ridiculous (self medicating for weird condition not being a factor). And to not notice both your kids have a weird medical issue? How asleep at the wheel can you be?
So i know this sounds odd, but my husband has been a vegetarian since he was 7, despite no other family member being vegetarian. He doesn't like the taste of meat - and I mean that. He can find a piece of chicken the size of you fingerprint in a burrito or taste when something is made with chicken broth indtead of vegetable. And he'll try stuff if I ask - but it's a visceral reaction. There's a disease caused by tick bites that leads to an aversion to meat. And I've always wondered if he had it. It's hard to test for now, but yea. It's possible to miss weird stuff like that.
Do people come out of the womb eating hotdogs and macdonalds!? didn't know this important fact about human development
@@meems4378 that’s interesting. Yeah it can be very difficult to get a positive on some of those tests despite symptoms. I had hashimoto’s for years before it was caught on a test. I am also hypersensitive to all types of stimuli (automatic/autoimmune disorder can cause this but I’m also autistic), I can tell if my mom changed a recipe just a tiny bit. I looked it up (“Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) is an allergic condition in which people are allergic to alpha-gal, a sugar found in the tissues of all mammals except humans and other primates. It is also known as mammalian meat allergy, alpha-gal allergy, red meat allergy, and tick bite meat allergy.” ) The info said that people “meat allergy” should be able to eat poultry, fish and other non-mammalian meats. Is you husband hypersensitive to other things? It could be both AGS and something else overlapping.
That's where you may not entirely be right. The parents said she was vegan because she didn't like meat. It only takes feeling yucky after eating something once or twice for a child to refuse it afterwards, but even in the real world with allergies its treated like they're "being picky" instead of an indicator that there is something else going on.
The parents fighting while she's dying is disgusting..is this a mitochondrial disease? It's like that..seizures.. dehydration.. Tachycardia..etc..
She had an enzyme missing from her liver passed on by a faulty gene from her mother and the girl was vegan which activated the whole thing.
@@aprilfisher4947 no, being vegan staved off the negative effects. NOT EATING set the dominos in motion.
the moral of the story is every child deserves a parent but no all parents deserve a child
I’ve seen this too many times😮😮
Normally if my parents said that to me, call me worthless, belittle me, and blame me for the death of my sister when the doctors kept saying that it wasn't, then I would never speak with them again for a long time.
this probably the first Chicago Med clip that was so emotional it made me tear up
This is an emotional episode
i’m so sorry
Sooo…some of y’all are saying the brother shouldn’t be forgiving of parents, but they were supposed to be ok with his drug use and stealing?🤔🤨
They don’t have to be ok with it they could be understanding….. there is a difference
@@strrts5135 what were they supposed to be understanding about? It sounds like they had given him multiple chances, but it’s some point a parent has to execute tough love. Obviously, if they had known of his illness that he was trying to handle, it would’ve clearly been very different.but they even said that he had started stealing from them, among other things, so up until that point I think that they’re anger and frustration were very justified
Both parents would have to have one copy of this gene on their x-chromosome.
If it's X-linked and skips a generation, then it has to be a recessive gene, and the daughter would need two copies.
For her to get two copies, the father would also have this metabolic disorder, just like the son, because he only has one X so it acts like a dominant gene.
If we do presume it's a dominant gene, then you would only need one copy to get this disorder and the mother would have the metabolic disorder, because she's the only one able to pass the X chromosone on to the son.
Overall this is very poorly researched on the writers end. They're usually not great at accuracy anyway, but they could have at least tried.
I just got hung up on "it's on the x chromosome so goes from mother to daughter", and missed the fact that more that just brother and sister should have it!
Im sorry but I couldn’t have forgiven them that moment because here they are blaming their other child for the sibling’s death and it’s AMAZEBALLS how he didn’t try to kill himself because I thought that’s what where he was headed when Choi came outside to talk to him. Being blamed for your sister dying is such a HUGE TON of unnecessary trauma and God knows it would drive people who are suffering like him to the complete edge. So angering to see parents do that to their kid. If they want his forgiveness then be his utmost support system as he gets clean.
What horrible parents. Happens soo much.
On another note, not eating meat doesn't cause anemia. Millions of people refrain from eating animals; they're very healthy. Just tired of the big meat propaganda
It can if you aren’t eating enough of the high iron foods. Which can easily happen in picky eaters, people who do zero research into this massive diet change, eat mostly processed foods, or with people allergies who can’t eat most if any of the plant that are high in iron.
Is the Vegan diet hard to in plenty iron? Not at all, unless there are multiple allergies to high high plants. does it take eating healthy balanced meals and research ? Yes, though people raised vegetarian will have a much easier transition. What vegans are more likely to be severely anemic/low on b-12? teenage/ younger adult vegans as a lot teenagers/young adults just stop eating animal products without a dietitians help or doing their own nutrition research did didn’t extend past more then animal welfare. Plenty of people who are omnivores are anemic for those same exact reasons but their anemia isn’t as bad as their food preferences tend to naturally include more iron and b-12 than their plant based counterparts. This means that someone who was already mildly anemic can quickly become severely anemic fast when the only change to their diet was cutting out the animal protein giving the appearance and feeding the stigma that all vegans are anemic.
Well off the record people don't have to eat meat any, However There are some people with A rare disorder Where they can't Get nutrients off plant-based protein alone. Usually the symptoms if tiredness and straining kicks in before anything fetal.
Aka the wake up call
Maybe he didn't do anything trying to take care of see me the great care

Why They Parents Blame Them They Son But They Daughter Died 😢😢😢😢
This episode hits home hard for me I’m 19 turning 20 in January at 15 I was diagnosed with a condition called Ehlersdanlos syndrome a genetic condition I self medicated and became addicted to drugs fairly early on as soon as I got answers I was able to clean up my act
Here within 7 hours ❤
this is bad to do to your kids dont make them do too much work or studying because it can lead to this
there is no forgiveness for them
Its not the disease, its the complication which kills a person...u take pt on vent...get controls of pt..
Seizures ...non convulsive status epilepticus killed her...EEG was the requirement..and further management was necessary
Love itt
The daughter dies by eating a certain meat? How does that work?
So given her tachycardia and tachypnea w/ altered mental status, LP, CT head, and MRI were all reasonable. However, I would have also ordered blood cultures in addition to starting acyclovir and ceftriaxone to rule out a blood stream infection. Also, EEGs will primarily show active seizures. Ativan is appropriate to give to stop a prolonged seizure lasting >5 minutes. This seems to all be taking place in the ED which is somewhat true.

Jesus Christ is the only way we are saved from a miserable life of drugs.
Amen
Did you even watch the whole video??? Eric wasn’t doing drugs due to some sort of sin or anything like that. He was doing drugs to try to not feel horrible from a genetic condition. Something he had been born with. I’m sorry but if this is another form of “punishment” for being born, then I truly can’t understand why your faith is so strong.
Jesus Christ didn’t save me. The love, support, and encouragement of my friends and family did.
Lol i dont believe in the 'guy who rules aove the clouds' as my beliefs died when my brother got my family kicked out of church years ago
