The fact that those people's co-workers even need to do this is a sickening commentary on our country. In a civilized society taking time to care for an infant would be a non issue.

But since our country is in the condition that it is thanks for posting that, and thanks to the people helping out.

These are some of the nicest people I know. They would help anyone.
No one should have to worry about finances with their child gravely ill.

Hope you and yours have a happy holidays!
Peace
