Iraqi ‘Baby Noor’ Comes to Ga. for Care
Update 1: Iraqi ‘Baby Noor’ Comes to Ga. for Care - Forbes.com: “An Iraqi infant with severe birth defects arrived in Atlanta Saturday for medical treatment that was offered after U.S. soldiers discovered the child during a raid on a home.
Baby Noor al-Zahra or, to the Americans, ‘Baby Nora,’ left Baghdad Friday in a military transport plane, accompanied by her grandmother and father.
‘This is certainly an exciting day for everyone,’ said Greg Wright, a spokesman for U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., who helped arrange for the child’s medical treatment in Atlanta.
U.S. troops discovered the baby three weeks ago during a raid of a house in Abu Ghraib, a poverty-stricken district west of Baghdad. The soldiers noticed paralysis in the baby’s legs and what appeared to be a tumor on her back. ” Posted by ZZ Bachman...
