Four-month-old Vidisha, daughter of a Kalyan couple, is being termed as a 'miracle baby', because she survived a 12-hour operation that was conducted at Parel’s B J Wadia Hospital. Child of Vishaka and Vinod Waghmare, Vidisha was not only born with a major heart defect, but also suffered six heart attacks post the 12-hour critical surgery.

According to a report in Times of India, four-month-old Vidisha finally will be discharged from the hospital. In the course of her long hospital stay, her fight has not only been against a critical heart ailment, but also her parents’ financial condition. While her parents could barely manage a sum of Rs 25,000 out of the Rs 5-lakh bill, generous donors came up to clear the dues.

"When she was 45 days old, Vidisha vomited after I fed her and fell unconscious. We shook her awake, but she again became unconscious", her monther was reported saying by the publication. The parents rushed her to a local nursing home, which recommended them to take her to Parel’s B J Wadia Hospital. The girl suffered from a heart defect called 'transposition of the great arteries', a case where connections to the big arteries called aorta and pulmonary artery are switched.
