The troubles for Anand Waghmare, 42, Service Engineer (Radio) with Air India Engineering Services Ltd (AIESL), are far from over. On Monday, neurosurgeon Dr Shashank Joshi, attached to Cooper Hospital, informed this paper that baby Eliza (seven months old) will have to undergo an urgent replacement of the Ommaya catheter in her head, or a surgery at the earliest, as the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has started discharging. If untreated it could lead to infection. The response came after Dr Joshi went through the pictures sent by Anand on Monday.
