By: Drew Bollea  There are many Thanksgiving traditions. Some people like to feast on turkey and watch football. Others maybe enjoy shopping. Whatever you like, a hospital visit probably isn't part of your plan. This Thanksgiving is much different for Mandi and T.J. Prifogle. "It was devastating," said Mandi, "it was upsetting, number one that he was sick. We just really want to do what we need to do to get him better."The couple spent the holiday at Erlanger hospital where their five month old son, Camden, is being treated for reasons the family chose not to say."We worry about him," said Camden's Father, T.J., "and its hard to sleep."The Prifogle's have several other children who will also be spending thanks giving in the hospital, supporting baby Camden."It makes you realize how important something is and how fast things can change," said T.J.Camden was admitted on Monday and the Prifogle's hope he'll come home soon."He's five months old, but he's a little fighter," said T.J., "he's been making huge improvement."They stay positive and are comforted by their visiting family, and some new additions."Some of these nurses treat you like family," said T.J., "it really helps out a lot,""I'm thankful for the hospital and the nurses that have taken such good care of our son," said Mandi, "I'm thankful for our family. I'm thankful for a lot."
