Long Story Short…He saved our daughter’s life.

October 1, 2015 by Elizabeth Eisworth

Walter Eisworth When our second daughter was 6 weeks old, the Eisworth/Hannan team came to Zachary. They saw patients in a extra ER room.

I went with our second daughter as an infant because she was not sleeping well at 6 weeks. Our oldest was 3 1/2.

After checking both of our daughters out throughly, he said “I can give you something to help the baby sleep, but my main concern is your older daughter”. Shocked us! We had noticed bruising, but thought it was normal.

He got blood drawn immediately! Long story short…He SAVED HER LIFE. She had NO PLATELETS, AND ANTIBOTIES ON HER RED BLOOD CELLS. He took us HIMSELF, to N.O. when he found out a team of Hemotologist were at the big charity hosp doing studies.

They took our daughter, took bone marrow, and came up with the plan, (cocktail) of meds. It took 2 years to cure her, but HE, and his staff were like family to us.

Walter, rest in peace dear heart.
