My Baby is Intensive Care


Luke_Wilbur

Recommended Posts

My three day newborn baby is in intensive care. His glucose levels are low. His temperature is low. The doctor thinks that the combination might indicate an infection of some type. The doctor is requesting a spinal tap. I am very scared. My wife noticed that his color was slightly yellow last night. Please say a prayer for little Luke. Pray he does not have Meningitis. We asked the doctor to write a list of what he was being tested for. She stated that she did not have time, because she needed to focus on treating Luke and the other babies. It is just fustrating that Sibley hospital does not have the staff to talk to us about what is going on.
