Three-year-old Hillsborough to stay at grandparent's house as fight for medical care continues

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – Noah McAdams' mother and father have been next to themselves.

"It was terrible," said the boy's mother, Taylor Bland-Ball. "I have not been able to sleep or eat anything, so I'm only a nervous wreck."

Bland-Ball and Joshua McAdams, the boy's father, took their son to Kentucky earlier this week after avoiding boys' chemotherapy treatment.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office has issued an alert for his safe return. He was found with his parents in Kentucky.

In court on Thursday, a judge agreed to let Noah's maternal grandparents take custody at the moment. We asked if they were happy with that.

"Yes, but we certainly ask more, much more, to find our baby," said the boy's mother.

Parents also do not want Noah to receive treatment for leukemia. Bland-Ball said that a recent test showed that the little boy had no cancer in his blood.

"I think that's the problem we currently have in this country, it's the falseness that doctors are pushing chemotherapy on people." As adults, we have the right to refuse, "said family lawyer Michael Minardi.

The parents planned to visit their son immediately after they left the Hillsborough County Court House, they said.
