Later on, Michelle brought up the topic with Rev. Al Sharpton, saying that the experience still lives in her memory.

“I will never forget. It was a day when, you know, one hour she was fine, she was normal, she was happy, doing everything I was used to her doing and the next hour she was crying inconsolably, and that just wasn’t like her. And I did everything.”

She then added, “I tried to do – tried to feed her, tried to rock her, tried to burp her. Finally, I just thought, I need to call my pediatrician.”

Once at the emergency department, doctors ran tests and performed a spinal tap.

Luckily, things turned out for the best for Sasha thanks to her parents’ quick reaction and the access to medical treatment. Had they not had access to pediatrician, health insurance, and hospital care without worrying for the cost of the treatment, things could have taken the wrong turn, Michelle explained.

“If we had waited overnight, if we had postponed acting, there’s no telling what the outcome would’ve been,” she added.

The family still thanks God for the outcome.
