The baby who was born with 2% of his Brain
In 2012 a British couple learns the great news that they are going to be parents for the first time.
But when the time came for the routine controls of said pregnancy, they detected a serious disease, the child came with spina bifida, which is a condition that prevents the spinal column and spinal cord from forming correctly, causing physical and intellectual disabilities.
Apart from this they detected a severe case of hydrocephalus at the moment the doctors recommended the couple to interrupt the birth But they preferred to give him the opportunity to live regardless of all the health problems that they had detected
Doctors make this recommendation to the couple at least 5 times, giving them abortion as the only option. In the separation so great that there was in the health problem The professionals ruled out that it was possible to completely close this separation, they warned that it would cause anomalies such as a paralyzed body from the chest down, apart from this they issued an order not to resuscitate the child, that is to say that if he stopped breathing at some point, no attempt would be made to save in any way
It did not seem enough so much sad news, the doctors had given the information to the parents that Noah would have only 25% of the brain but they had not seen the worst and it was that the little one only had 2% now it turned out that he also suffered from porencephaly What is something like a cyst that reduces the brain mass a small layer the child
It was totally complicated.
On the afternoon of March 6, 2012, the mother of this baby underwent a cesarean section where 12 doctors participated ... when the child was taken out, they immediately entered the operating room for a double operation to unite the spina bifida and drain the cerebrospinal fluid that was the one that accumulated and pressed his brain this operation was a success
The verdict was simple in case of surviving from then on the baby would be condemned to live a life of physical and intellectual disability since he would not be able to see, hear, speak or eat the situation was such that the parents prepared for the worst
The years passed and the child with certain limitations began to do things that the doctors had said could never become in fact some analyzes revealed that the child's brain had begun to develop reaching 80% is impressive To have been born with 2% to have had 80% in just three years a true miracle !!!
His parents decided to keep going at all times, they even have a website called "Hugs for Noah" which they started from pregnancy and at the same time they prepared a funeral for a child who had not yet been born this because of all the bad diagnoses that the doctors said .
The parents of this child investigated about neurophysics which is a mixture of cognitive exercises and physiotherapy, they convinced them to do an evaluation and started this alternative therapy What is it, where they look for signs that the brain is working and send indications to the body It is believed that this helped a lot The little one.
Currently Noah is about to turn 9 years of life and is already able to sit alone, eat, read, write, speak and sing, play video games and lead a life within what is normal, although he does not walk yet, his parents have all the Hope that one day I can do it
He currently has a habit of dressing as Santa Claus on a wheelchair this child went from having 2% of his brain to 80% ... if his parents had decided to interrupt the pregnancy, he could not have enjoyed the Wonders of this miracle reflected in little Noah.
At Christmas time is when he uses this costume and they say that he goes to hospitals to distribute gifts, he is a child with a lot of desire to live and he hopes to be able to walk and practice sports like Surf, which is one of his favorites.
Since a child is in the womb it is already a life and the woman becomes a mother this woman fought at all times so that her child was born regardless of adversity, I trust that the future could change And although the doctors tried to convince her of it On the contrary, he remained firm that he should give him the opportunity to be born and today, although with limitations, he is a really happy child.
I think you would find the story of Nora Web, or others who had half their brain removed.
