Singaporean boy seeks burn treatment in Cincinnati
Three year old Shankar Shi Wan Ray from Singapore arrived with his father at the Shrine Burn Institute in Cincinnati for specialized care after a gasoline explosion burned over seventy percent of his body. The family traveled via Cleveland sponsorship by the Fairview Shrine Club. Doctors expect most burns to heal without grafts, though scarring may require limited surgery and a pressure mask will aid healing. The boy and his father will reside in Cleveland with a relative while making periodic Cincinnati visits.
