More than likely is the best answer I can give you. I don't know if visitation and time sharing have already been established or if you need to do so. If you already have a court order in place then you will need to file a Supplemental Petition for Modification of time sharing and visitation. If not then you will need to file a petition for paternity. You will probably want to consult with an attorney to discuss your rights and options.
These things seem to favor your case. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659.
Since the matter concerns the child's health and well being it warrants a court review of the current time sharing schedule if there is one or at least for one to be put in place.
Document missed appointments and any doctor/hospital information on the child's health and missed appointments and seek a consultation with a local family law attorney who can assist you with a Petition for a Parenting Plan and Time Sharing Plan or assist you with Modifying the current one to better protect your child.
