Update on condition of Baby Noor ... and, good news about good people doing good things.

Dr. Roger Hudgins, a pediatric neurosurgeon who agreed to take the case, said the baby would have died without medical intervention. With surgery, her chances of survival are good, he said.

Children's Healthcare is providing treatment for free. The surgery and accompanying care would cost about $200,000 if it were billed, officials have said. [. . .] ... even if the operations are a success, doctors predict she will need to use a wheelchair.


Iraqui doctors had given this baby 45 days to live and the parents were just waiting for her to die until our good American soldiers intervened.

Baby Noor was discovered several weeks ago by U.S. troops raiding a house in Abu Ghraib, a poverty-stricken district in Iraq west of Baghdad. The soldiers noticed paralysis in the baby's legs and what appeared to be a tumor on her back.

God Bless this baby's grandmother who placed Baby Noor in the soldier's arms. Wonderful news... will continue to pray for her recovery, and for the health and happiness of all Iraqi children. :)
