Hospital Tests

When we got to the hospital with Winston for his fever, they automatically do a huge work up on babies less than 28 days. He was only 26 days. Thank goodness they did, because it told them and us that he had viral meningitis. He had an iv put into his head, he was cathed for a urine sample, multiple blood drawings, a lumbar puncture, an NG tube down his Nose and into his stomach, X-rays, lots of rectal temperature readings, antibiotics, and oxygen. He is so tough and went through so much over the four day period at the hospital.
