A woman from Voss, Texas, has been arrested in Tarrant County on allegations of abusing her 7-year-old granddaughter, whom she had been caring for since the girl was an infant.

According to reports, the child was hospitalized at Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth in August 2023. She was reportedly suffering from severe dehydration, vomiting, and diarrhea. When she was checked, medical staff found ulcers in her gastrointestinal tract in addition to damage to her intestines and colon. They were unable to diagnose a specific medical condition based on the youngster’s symptoms. As part of her treatment, doctors used a gastric feeding tube to give her medication.

During the medical interventions, the child’s condition got better and then worsened, but the doctors could not find a reason. In January 2024, family members became concerned and suspected the grandmother could be harming the child. They reported their concerns, and the grandmother was told she could no longer stay at the hospital because she was not the youngster’s legal guardian. According to the doctors, the child’s health improved significantly after her grandmother left. It was reported that the authorities believe the child’s grandmother may have been poisoning her by putting Mean Green Degreaser cleaner in her feeding tube.
