“We came to Delhi 15 days ago in an overcrowded train. We had to stand most of the way, and Ahad cried the whole night. We knew then that this was our only chance to save our baby and even borrowed money for our train tickets to bring him here. Now he’s running out of time.” – Rajjak, father

However, when the elders in their village came to visit him, they said it was nothing to worry about. They told them not to take such a small baby to the hospital. Some even suggested a homemade remedy. However, their baby was getting sicker.“He couldn’t drink milk. He would get breathless and start sweating a lot every time he did.
