'Dinner with a Scientist' helps students choose their futures

Lawmaker calls for CPS audit after baby taken from couple

SACRAMENTO, CA - Baby Sammy Nikolayev's parents said their son is on the path to recovery.

Sammy headed to Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford on Wednesday. Alex and Anna Nikolayev said their son is gaining weight, and doctors plan to wait as many as six weeks before heart surgery.

Sacramento police officers and Child Protective Services took Sammy into protective custody last week after his parents removed their son from Sutter Memorial to get a second opinion. A judge returned custody to the parents Monday, but he had remained at Sutter Hospital until Wednesday.

"He was so excited driving the road down. He was not crying. He had his bottle, and when we arrived up there, all those nurses were smiling at him. He was smiling, and he was welcomed there," Anna Nikolayev said.
