Four-month-old baby Eliza battling cerebrospinal fluid turned away from PICU for lack of beds

For Baby Eliza's parents, it was a doctor at Cooper hospital who gave them hope after he promised to treat the four-month-old free of charge. And yet, it was the same hospital that dashed this hope yesterday, after refusing to admit the child for an urgent procedure.
This paper had earlier reported how the infant is suffering from hydrocephalus as a result of a premature birth under the stressful circumstances. Her father, Anand Waghmare is employed with Air India, which is allegedly harassing him for being a whistle-blower. Consulting neurosurgeon Dr Shashank Joshi offered to treat the child for free after reading of their plight in this paper.
