my daughter had spinal meningitis. i was already told to call family in. she was on life support, organs failing. she was one week from one year old. this wonderful doctor came in and gave her the chloromycetin. within minutes she was projectile vomiting. at first i was thinking what did he do to my baby. he saved her life. without this drug i would not have my daughter today. she is 24.
