    PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - This week in 12 Health, Shannon Hegy spoke with the CEO of Smoltap, a company that makes a "positioning stabilizer" for infant spinal taps.

Coli meningitis eight years ago at just two months old, so she knows how traumatic these procedures can be for patients and their families alike.
