[quote=Anonymous]The last time my son was in the hospital, he was 8. Fortunately we haven't had to deal with it since. But he's been hospitalized about 10 times in his life. I've never left him alone. When he was an infant, and small toddler, I did all the diaper changes and feedings. The nurses didn't. When he was older, he had to be unhooked from all the wires to go use the bathroom. Maybe as a teen, I'd leave him occasionally overnight. It would depend on his comfort level. I suppose there are people who have to leave the kids. I haven't seen it, my 10+ times in the hospital with my son. But the pediatric wing doesn't deal with long-term chronic illnesses, to my knowledge. Aren't there specialty wings or hospitals for that? [/quote]
