Mica - Staph Infection

  • Mica had a staph infection when he was 7 months old. His neck kept getting bigger and bigger, so my parents took him to the doctor (they were taking care of him). I went in later that day because he was so sick! He looked like the Incredible Hulk, except not green. He was one sick baby! His white blood cell count was high, we didn't know what was wrong with him, he had a hurt cry and there were no hospital beds open in Omaha. Finally we got into Bergan Hospital. We were there a lot longer than expected. He had a lot of blood work drawn, and an IV put in. He went home on home IV antibiotics. But...he got better. I believe he got it through an ear infection that was on the same side as the staph. He stumped the doctors for awhile.
