Ms. Petro stated that Brandon ‘was in a coma for some time but eventually regained consiousness and made a recovery. She stated that Brandon was released from the hospital and began walking and talking again, and was even able to ride a bicycle. Ms. Petro stated that this changed 2-3 months ago when Brandon was diagnosed with Colitis while living at their home in Tampa, FL. Ms. Petro advised that Brandon was admitted to St. John’s Hospital, as the colitis began triggering more seizures. ‘She stated that St. John’s Hospital advised that they had patients’ families who had transferred to Cumberland Children’s Hospital in New Kent, VA. They would not refer Ms. Petro, as they advised that they themselves did not have knowledge of the hospital; they suggested that she take a tour and see if it may be a good fit for Brandon.

She stated that a short time later, Dr. Davidow showed up at VCU Health Systems and again she told him to leave and that she did not want to discuss anything about her son with him.
