More details

I know a little bit more about my friends and their baby. The husband was changing the baby on his lap and dropped her. They took her to the hospital to make sure she was ok. Unfortunately this was a mistake (!). A cat scan was done on the baby and it showed some cranial bleeding (not caused by the drop). They had no explanation for the bleeding and unfortunately trying to find a reason made it worse.

The husband may regain custody in 6-12 months. The wife may regain custody in 3 months. Right now the wife can be with the baby but her mother has custody. The husband and wife can't spend any significant time together.

The husband may end up with a felony conviction.

The real child abusers out there don't take their children to the doctor. It is a messed up system.

You can take her to the doctor, but just be careful of what you say. You never know who might be listening. :(
