Update: (Sacramento) Judge orders transport of Baby Sammy to Stanford Medical Center

SACRAMENTO, CA - The Sacramento baby boy at the center of child custody controversy that has garnered international attention will be moved to a Bay Area hospital for further evaluation.

"It's like a special day for us. It's like we're in a unit with our son again," said mother Anna Nikolayev. "We're just not going to let go anymore."

Five-month-old Sammy, who was removed from his parents' custody by Sacramento County Child Protective Services last week, will be transported to Stanford Medical Center in Palo Alto, a Sacramento County judge ruled Monday. The baby has been in protective custody at Sutter Memorial Hospital.

Anna and Alex Nikolayev removed their baby from Sutter Memorial previously because they were unhappy with the care they were receiving, according to Anna.

and since the Nikolayevs had already taken the baby to another hospital, they were SOL on that account.

I just hope they're not allowed to bill for that five days.

My wife was at Stanford last year for nearly a month.

They have the best staff I've ever seen.
