It wasn’t busy day yesterday working at Emergency Room of a Children Hospital. Around 9 pm there was a code blue for a little baby boy whose heart rate dropped to zero. |

This is a 2 month old little baby with brain death. Half month ago, he is a beautiful normal baby. But one early morning, everything changed for him when he was found un-response, no breathing, and cyanotic (blue-skin) and his mother slept on top of him on a couch. After two week staying in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), he was diagnosed brain death and no spontaneous breathing (respiratory failure). His parents refused giving up basic life support with ventilator and feeding tube and he was transferred to the hospital taking care of chronic ill kids. |

We got baby’s heart rate back, but we can’t get baby’s brain, his real life, his soul, and his spirit back. Looking through baby’s non-reaction eyes and face, my heart was sunk. My mind has occupied with the sense since the moment I saw the baby. As a primary pediatrician, I have to let mothers know the risk of sharing beds with babies. | |

Don’t put your babies on the risk for their life!!! |

| |
Don’t take chance and regret for your whole life!!! |
