Prayers needed
Sorry it's been awhile since I've posted. I've been busy with family things and then on Monday I went with my SIL to the doctor. My 7 week old nephew was admitted into the hospital. I have been noticing signs that he was not responding the way a 7 week old baby should, then my SIL told me that he was only drinking about 4oz. of fluids a day, and only awake for maybe 3 hours in a 24 hr. period. Her husband kept telling her she was just trying to find something wrong with him, so she just dimissed it. She had another relative watch him, and they called me the next day very concerned about his behavior.
He has been in the hospital for 3 full days and the only thing they can come up with is that he has a major bladder infection, and possible fluid in his brain. The doctors from the shitty hospital are not concerned about the fluid, but they are going to have it checked by a nerologist in March. If this was my child I would have left Sandusky in the first day, but there hanging in. He still won't eat, so they are suppose to do a test with his throat today to see if anything is wrong there.
So needless to say between working, running the kids to there activites, running my mom around, and trying to be at the hospital I have been to busy to be on my computer.
Keep this little guy and his family in your prayers.

oh I am so sorry to hear that..
I wish they would of taken him to a bigger hopstail..just staright to an ER in a differnt city..I dont trust them there..
fluid on the brain can be seroius, it can compress the skull and cause permany brain damage, i cant belive they arent going to worry about that till march...a babies brian grows so much in the first few months..man..get them outta there girl..
i will keep him in my prayers..poor lil fella..keep us posted..
He will definately be in our prayers! I would also seek another hospital. They can only do so much in small town hospitals! I was glad when they airlifted my Dad out of there to another hospital with his heart attack. I know they mean well, but they just aren't as equipped.
Hang in there and let us know when you have updates.
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. They are going to need them. Mom is really scared to go somewhere else because she doesn't want to depend on other people to watch their other to kids.
