Jammu: The old adage, 'Doctors are second to God'—was proved by a team of doctors at Shri Maharaja Gulab Singh (SMGS) Hospital here when they helped a new-born baby girl, weighing barely 450 grams, survive after 100 days of extensive care.
"The baby was born premature (six months of pregnancy), had weighed only 450 grams at the time birth," said a doctor, adding that the mother's love forced the doctors to strive and save the tiny precious life.
"After nearly 100 days of round the clock care, the baby was finally safe and healthy and was handed over to the parents," the doctor said.
"It was not less than a miracle we have seen with open eyes and now the child is weighing 1.42-kg with all normal activities and healthy organs," he said.
