• July 3, 2021, take their 3-month old son Mickey to Children’s Medical Center in Plano that evening after he grew unresponsive.
  • The baby had rarely left Zahava’s arms.
• Initial diagnoses
  • Brain bleed, plus fractured ribs, plus a retinal hemorrhage
• Within days
  • Doctors walk-back the diagnosis of broken bones, saying the only injury was the brain bleed.
• Doctors thought the child was a victim of “shaken baby syndrome,”
• Mickey’s injuries classified as potentially stemming from abuse.
• All three children were taken from the parents and placed in the foster care system.
• Mickey is a twin
• They spent more of their lives outside their parents’ home than in it.
• They also have a three year old sister, who was removed.
• Family took their case to social media, raising about $272,000
• The Ederys hired four pediatric neurology experts to examine the medical evidence. |
  • The doctors concluded that Mickey, a twin born prematurely, had slight head trauma from delivery that caused a fluid buildup inside his skull that ultimately caused the brain bleed.
