This came up randomly on TH-cam. I had no idea a procedure like this existed. I find it hard to even watch this. How can people do something like this to children? If I ever have kids I'll make sure they never undergo this procedure. Is there a way to donate? More people should know about this.
@@celadrial6684 We couldn’t agree more! It’s so validating to know we’re reaching more people & raising awareness. And absolutely! As a grassroots org we greatly appreciate all the help we can get :) We only have Venmo at the moment (@unsilencedmovement) but hope to set up a more formal donation portal on our website soon. Thanks so much for your support! ❤️
Wow, I came across this and for the first time know what happened to me when I was 3 or 4. I'm a guy who is 64 now. Yep, they do this to little boys too. My parents were concerned that I peed the bed. Apparently the doctor recommended this procedure. I still remember lying on the table crying, (probably screaming) being filled and then eventually peeing. I certainly didn't want that to happen again and I stopped wetting the bed. I still at times find it very difficult to pee in public restrooms.
Life-altering sexual harm knowingly being inflicted on vulnerable defenceless children - this truth, FOR DECADES, brushed aside and buried by a profession which pledges to do no harm.
My daughter was born with severe VUR and had to have a VCUG done every6 months until she was 5 she was miss diagnosed until she was 2 months old and sent home from the hospital twice and our doctor told us she had days to live because she was so severely dehydrated because she was throwing everything up and the hospital said it was a cold grrrr!!! Anyway they actually had to put her in stay jackets to keep her from moving during the procedure so nothing would tear or get damaged but the nurses were awesome and put a movie on in the radiation machine and had toys and coloring books and kept her calm almost everytime I had one time that we went that I didn't like it was a different doctor and he was mean and not nice she was two by this time who's mean to a two year old gave me creep vibes but she went from there most severe case that they were positive would need surgery to the tube from her kidneys to her bladder growing with her by the time she was five but she doesn't have any memories of any of it she's 23 now I'm so sorry you had such a traumatizing experience isn't it crazy how good memories fade but bad ones stay forever prays for you!🙏
Mine wasnt vcug but similar and i was 3. Ive never forgotten it. 3 yrs later the same dr that ordered that raped me by almost doing the exact same thing again.
Thank you for sharing this. Parents would just trust the "experts", but after this, we know.
Thank you for sharing this. It was done to me 40 years ago, and has poisoned many areas of my life. I still hate the medical profession.
This medical procedure makes me absolutely mad! I am so sorry that you all have had to deal with such horrible things. It really brakes my heart.

It’s a traumatizing test. My son has bilateral grade v reflux and needed the test. He’s had surgery since but the cystogram is horrible too. I’m sorry

Does TH-cam not allow you to say what it is, I'm curious why not explain to the viewers?
