Little Boy Whose Scalp Was Devoured By Dogs Is Healing Nicely

 Oh! Praise be to God for the life of this little 4year old Nigerian boy. 

  

When I read the story of Omonigho Abraham, last year, I cried. Believe me, I wept, my heart was broken for this kid. He was attacked by two German shepherds last year. The vicious dogs owned by a neighbour devoured his scalp for an hour, and he was left with his skull exposed. He was only rescued when his mother was called to the scene and met 2 dogs eating away at her son's head, with bystanders and even police men standing there unable (is that even the right word?mtcheeeeeew) to help. View the graphic pics of the little boy when he was attacked, after the cut...

Today, he is getting restored, thanks to successful surgery in India. But it was not an easy road to recovery. The little boy was initially admitted into the Lagos University Teaching Hospital after the incident, but carelessness from medical personnel there, caused his wounds to become infected, as affirmed by a medical report from the Indian hospital

“At the time of admission, there was: large raw area over scalp with infection; the raw area was extending from frontal scalp, bilateral parietal scalp to occipital region; the raw area was looking pale and slimy; Infection+.
Dr. Durga Prassad, consultant paediatrician, was consulted for evaluation of medical problems. He (Omonigho) was diagnosed as a case of infected raw area over scalp.” 

The doctors told the family they needed to do skin grafting to temporarily cover up the wound before the major operation would be done after his return to India in June. Thank God for restoration!!!!
