How was the baby finally born. Describe the frantic efforts made by Dr.Manson to save the life of the baby, Which was thought to be still born.
Here is a description of the efforts made by Dr. Andrew to revive the baby:
Post an hour's long and harsh struggle, the child that Andrew had helped to deliver was born lifeless. As he gazed down at the still form, Andrew shivered to think how he had failed to keep his promise of delivering the baby safely. He hesitated, he was torn between the desire to attempt to resuscitate the child and his obligation towards saving the mother who was in a desperate state after the birth of her child. The question at hand was whom to save, the stillborn baby or the mother whose heart was still beating.
The dilemma was so pressing that he did not resolve it consciously,he blindly and instinctively chose to pay attention to Susan Morgan, the mother who now lay collapsed, with almost no pulse. He began to race to save her with her ebbing strength marking the time left. In an instant he had smashed a glass ampule and injected the medicine. Then he flung down the hypodermic syringe and worked tirelessly to restore the woman back to consciousness. A few excruciating moments later, she began to gain strength. It was only then that he decided to devote his attention to the child.
As Andrew watched the motionless limp form, he realized that it was a medical condition called asphyxia, pallida which the child was suffering from where it gets suffocated from a lack of oxygen. He instantly got to his feet and asked for hot and cold water plus basins. Snatching a blanket, he laid the pallid body of the child on it and began a special method of respiration, The basins arrived along with the ewer and big iron kettle. He frantically splashed cold water into one basin and into the other he mixed hot water. Then hurried the child between the two,alternately plunging it into ice water and the steaming bath. The clock ticked by but the child did not show any signs of coming back to life. Andrew laboured on, persisting upon one last effort whereby he rubbed the child with a rough towel, crushing and releasing the little chest with both his hands and trying to get breath into the limp body. Then miraculously, the baby's chest began to rise and fall and life coursed back into its body. the child was gasping now and its body was no longer lifeless.
