the family of a newborn baby is asking
for prayers the baby seemed lethargic so
the mom took the baby to the doctor
where the child later tested positive
for covin 19 now what should have been a
joyful time in this family's life is a
terrifying nightmare this newborn tested
positive for Koba 19 at just 12 days old
baby Eli was acting lethargic when his
parents dawn and Sean Clancy took him to
the doctor how was Eli acting when you
knew something was wrong I waited just
like though rub his stomach a little bit
and be like hey Eli and he just wasn't
opening his eyes
Eli wasn't the only one in the family to
test positive dad Sean did too mom dawn
tested negative how shocked were you
first to find out that your husband
tested positive and then you find out
your newborn I can't even put into words
how my emotions felt it was pretty hard
it was like my biggest fear leading up
to you've been having a baby at this
time when this virus is going around you
know you try to do everything you can to
keep your house safe it was emotionally
draining
now his baby elion is dead recover from
the virus this normally happy bonding
time as a family has been turned upside
down the new parents find themselves
quarantined in separate rooms at their
home in Cleveland tell us about how
you're making this work we are able to
split some of the duties and things now
since Eli doesn't have to be completely
isolated from me
dawn is Eli lucky oh absolutely and he's
still such a happy baby the odds are in
his favor
we wish baby Eli and his family the best
