Last week, Survana and Narendra Patil had lost all hope. Rather given when your newborn is on ventilator support and struggling to stay alive.
But as luck would have it, 3-week-old baby of Survana and Narendra Patil came out fighting and alive out of this dark phase. While still requiring meticulous care, the baby is showing signs of improvement and if the upward continues, he might be able to go home soon.
The baby was born on 14th July, 2017 and was rushed to NICU owing to respiratory troubles. Last week, situation got even more dire when doctors figured lack of oxygen circulation to his brain. He was immediately shifted to life support as chances of survival were minimal. Thankfully though, the baby is out of danger now and almost ready to go home. But due to the damage done during his 3-week tenure in this world, he requires continuous medication and test for coming five years.
