August 12, 2007 - Thimphu: A one-year-and-eleven-month-old baby girl who fell from a two-storey house in Gaselo, Wangduephodrang, was miraculously saved by a team of doctors at the Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital in Thimphu.

Sonam Choki had sustained severe head injuries and lost all consciousness for 13 days after the 12-feet fall on July 25. She was immediately rushed to the local basic health unit and subsequently referred to the Thimphu Hospital.

“She was in a very critical condition when she was brought here. The urgent computer graphic of the head showed several multiple skull fractures but fortunately no internal bleeding,” said Pediatric Surgeon, Dr. Johannes Meixner. [Source: BhutanTimes]
