C.L.
Ugh. My oldest son was born with a birth defect that we were not aware of until he was born. Although I was high risk and had to have ultra sounds on a regular basis.
He had his first surgery when he was three months old. The nurses at this hospital were all fairly nasty. I am a polite person and stay away from conflict. One of the nurses we are fairly certain didnt wash her hands and caused our son to almost die. Her hands were not washed when she took out the drainage tubes and my son who was healing 1 1/2 of schedule his condition dramatically took a turn for the worse. In the end he recovered and he is now 10 1/2yrs. With no lasting effects.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
