[전국]”Thank you Korea for performing surgery on babies with heart disease”

[앵커]

A Mongolian baby, who was at risk of congenital heart disease, regained health with the help of his supporters.

A Mongolian couple who came to Korea in search of work are grateful to Koreans for treating their babies, and are counting only the days until they return to their home country, where the borders were closed due to Corona 19.

A 6-month-old Mongolian baby ‘Anand’ is undergoing an echocardiogram.

It looks bright and healthy even after surgery for congenital heart disease, where the hole between the atrium and the ventricle is not blocked.

Anand’s parents, who came to Korea from Mongolia five years ago and worked as construction workers, weren’t covered by health insurance, so they couldn’t even afford the massive 30 million won cost of the surgery.

Due to Corona 19, there was no work and it was difficult to earn a living, and the period of stay was ended because the visa could not be renewed due to the overwhelming situation.

The Milal Heart Foundation, an anonymous Dokjiga who donated the money for the wedding congratulations, and the Gil Hospital of Gachon University, which learned of the negative events, paid for the boy’s heart surgery.

Anand’s maternal grandmother and maternal grandfather in Mongolia also wiped their eyes and expressed their gratitude for the Korean people and medical staff.

I want to return to my home country as soon as possible with a healthy baby, but the Mongolian border is closed due to the prevention of the spread of Corona 19.

These couples have applied for departure at the embassy and are waiting for the border gate to open to pass on their gratitude and valuable experiences in Korea to their home countries.
