Indian doctors give new lease of life to Pakistani boy
The two-year-old son of Jalal and Saburi, who are from Pakistan and Baluchistan, is named Saif Jalal. Combination immunodeficiency, a rare condition worldwide, was identified in the infant. The experts recommended that the baby boy's bone marrow be entirely replaced as part of the treatment.
To get their son treated, his parents travelled to a number of hospitals in Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. Chemotherapy for Saif was performed in Saudi Arabia. There is no conclusion. The boy's situation deteriorated.
A ventilator was used for the treatment of Saif Jalal. The medical staff gave up and said they were unable to treat the infant. They discovered that similar ailments were being treated at the Esther Malabar Institute of Science in Kozhikode, Kerala, India, after all hope had been lost. The boy's parents made contact with the Indian Embassy office in this manner. The youngster was assisted by the Ministry of External Affairs in being transported to a hospital in Kozhikode.
Senior medical staff from the NIMS hospital volunteered to treat the youngster.
Two months after the operation, the kid made a full recovery.
