India has been a draw for patients from South Asia, West Asia and even developed countries Six-year-old Aynur Bazargeldiyeva from Turkmenistan has been listening to stories—lots of stories.
It’s been this way for nearly three months. That’s how long little Aynur and his parents have been in India, which means keeping him busy with stories, far from familiar surroundings.
Aynur, who has a congenital heart defect, landed in India on 8 March with his parents. By that time he could barely walk a few steps.
The paediatric cardiology team at Max Super Speciality Hospital in Delhi, under Dr K.S. Dagar, operated on him on 10 March and discharged him a week later.
