Baby Born During Flight Named After Doctor Who Delivered Her

A Canadian doctor flying to Uganda was shocked when she was called to respond to a medical emergency. A passenger had gone into labor mid-flight, and Dr. Aisha Khatib was asked to deliver her baby. “I'm thinking, ‘I need hot water. Wait, no, I don't need hot water,’ but they always ask for it in the movies,” she said. The baby’s mom, a migrant worker from Uganda, stayed calm and named the baby Miracle Aisha, after the doctor who delivered her. Inside Edition Digital’s Johanna Li has more.

"I need hot water... no, I don't need hot water. They always ask for it in the movies." That was hilarious! Great job to all involved! Lovely story.

Her giving the baby girl that necklace was so sweet. I'm sure she'll cherish it as she gets older. What a cute story

I think it's about time that every plane flying should have a standby ready medical equipments for such kind of medical emergencies.
