Death Ends Long Fight for Oxygen Baby in Chicago
Chicago on January 14 reports the death of 12 day old Baby George Smith after a 58 hour effort by six firemen and obstetricians. Despite oxygen, blood transfusions, and a home operation for jaundice, the infant collapsed as doctors had begun to see improvement. The mother, Mrs Joseph Smith, contributed blood and oxygen during the heroic but doomed rescue. Doctors cited heart disease secondary to respiratory failure and said the child had about a 50 50 chance to live. The family included the mother who left the hospital shortly after the death was announced.
