INDIA-CHILD-HEALTH-ILLNESS-HYDROCEPHALUS
In this photograph taken on April 18, 2013, the mother of Indian child Roona Begum (R), Fatima Khatun, wipes her eyes in fatigue as she sits next to her daughter's hospital bed, two days after Roona and her parents were flown into New Delhi from their remote village in the Northeastern part of the country, at a hospital in Gurgaon on the outskirts of New Delhi. Doctors have successfully carried out life-saving surgery on an Indian baby suffering from a rare disorder that caused her head to swell to nearly double its size, a neurosurgeon told AFP on May 15, 2013. "The surgery went perfectly, much better than expected," Sandeep Vaishya said after the procedure on 15-month-old Roona Begum, speaking exclusively to an AFP reporter inside the operating theatre at a hospital in New Delhi.
