We visit Ocharley's weekly or we once did till February 28, 2007 we went and my son who never eats anything but the chicken tenders decided to change up a bit and try the mini corn dogs. He ate some of them and finally just said he didn't want anymore. I not knowing they probably had a bad taste told him he needed to finish his food, but he didn't. So after returning home, he told me his stomach was hurting really bad,,I said go lay down,,on several occasions he came and said his stomach hurt. So around 2am or 3 am he threw up in bed,,,and then another time before morning. He didn't go to school but wanted something to drink sprite and also threw that up I said what's wrong Keon he said the corn dogs were nasty and made him sick so all the next day his stomach was messed up... I had no way to get him to the doctor till my son got out of school. I took him to his doctor and I told him he was food poisoned and had not been able to keep anything on his stomach since eating the corndogs. And even on my way to the doctor I called O'Charley's and told them that they need to take the corndogs off the shelf or where ever they stored them caused they made my son sick. Well the doctor examined my son and determined he needed to go in the hospital for severe dehydration. The term he also used was gastroenteritis which I found to be medical term for food poisoning. O'charley's continue to call on check on my son. But never admitted any fault, continuing to offer gift certificates, my son never wants to eat there again... And to top it off the doctor ran 100 tests and none was for food poisoning.
What can I do?
