MIRACLE BABY SURVIVES FALL FROM 11TH FLOOR


A 15-month-old boy described by doctors as a "miracle baby" was
in critical condition at a Minneapolis hospital on Wednesday after
surviving an 11-story fall from the balcony of an apartment
building.

Musa Dayib slipped through slits in the balcony railing and landed
on a patch of mulch on Sunday, his family told reporters. He was
rushed to Hennepin County Medical Center, a pediatric level-one
trauma center.

The boy suffered a concussion and fractures to his arms, ribs and
spine. He also has a punctured lung, said Christine Hill, a
spokeswoman for the hospital.
Dr. Tina Slusher, who is treating the baby, said he avoided any
major head injury, and she has never before seen a child survive
such a plunge.
"That's a gift from God to the family, because he shouldn't of made
it," she told television broadcaster WCCO.
