At the time he was sitting on a bed in the recovery area of the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC)’s Paediatric Unit playing a game of ‘trucks’ on his iPad.He had only days earlier undergone a crucial surgery to fix what appeared as a growing bulge in his lower back. It was a surgical operation of very technical proportions and quite possibly the first conducted at the GPHC.Spearheading the operation was Dr. Amarnauth Dukhi, Neurosurgeon attached to the GPHC for the past one and half years. The Cuba-trained Dr. Dukhi, who is the Head of Neurosurgery, explained that the bulge in Bradford’s lower back was in fact a neural tube defect, a condition he was born with. Neural tube defects are essentially birth defects of the brain, spine or spinal cord that should ideally be fixed within the first six months of an infant’s life.Experts have deduced that this condition occurs during the first month of pregnancy and even before a woman is aware she is with child.In Bradford’s case his spinal cord was exposed at the lower back, Dr. Dukhi explained, as he disclosed that the child was awaiting surgery since birth. “He was referred overseas for specialist treatment but unfortunately that didn’t happen because of finances,” Dr. Dukhi told media operatives yesterday.But with Dr. Dukhi’s specialist training, the four-year-old had started to receive needful attention at the GPHC’s neurosurgical clinic about six months ago.

We were able to close the defect and we were able to give him a normal looking lower back.”Bradford, according to the neurosurgeon,Cheap NFL Jerseys, is recovering so well that he has even started to walk. “He has no major neurological deficit, except that he cannot control his urine as yet, and we are looking for some improvement on that,” said Dr. Dukhi, as he revealed plans to have the child discharged sometime today.“We have come a long way from when we started.
