The family of a 20-month-old baby with a defective heart and water on the brain is appealing for assistance. The baby’s father, Kang, has come forward, seeking suggestions for the treatment of his deformed child. The baby was born with only three heart chambers instead of the usual four, resulting in the heart defect.
The baby was given just days to live, maybe a month, at birth, the father says (Image: Exclusivepix Media)It also suffers from water on the brain.
The family live in Bang Bon, a district of Bangkok, Thailand’s capital.

“Well, twenty months on we’re still hoping that some treatment can be found.”
“That’s why I am speaking out that maybe someone will notice it who can recommend a specialist paediatrician.”
