The survival of a new born which falls through a train toilet onto the tracks

Do miracles really happen or is it just co-incidence? I feel Unknown to us, miracles always happen in our daily lives. But sometimes, the lucky are blessed to experience it and somewhere deep in their hearts they feel of great importance that something so rare has happened to them, making it the talk of the town, and conferred a lifetime memory too. Read this true incident that occurred recently in India and let me know your views..

I had been watching this headlines about the birth of a baby on train which people deem as a miracle. This family, a housewife pregnant with her second child, her spouse and their first born were traveling by train when the women suddenly walked of to the lavatory. She probably wanted to relieve herself or rather the sharp pains in her abdomen when suddenly the baby delivered and slipped of into the lavatory bowl and through the flap onto the tracks under the speeding train. The mother jumped off the train to save the baby and injured herself by a fall, she pulled herself up and managed to move towards where the baby had tumbled. Her spouse and others who saw her jump pulled the emergency chain and got off in search of the newly birthed mother when they saw her sitting beside the tracks with the baby in her arms! Admitted to hospital both mother and child were safe and recovering..

I sometimes wonder why people see things without reason.. but scientifically miracles are proven too so i better not let my brains fuse and ask what you think about the incident? :-)

Sex Determination in India

In India it is against the laws to undergo a gender determination test and this is because some people find out the gender of the baby within the womb and on knowing it’s a female, either abort the child or use some other means to kill the fetus. It’s tremendously horrifying to hear these things daily, but I do read them time and time again in the news papers and on TV. Because of the lack of education and knowledge about sex in the people of rural India, often land up reproducing more and more children in the hopes of a male offspring, who could help towards income, also he would be the one to carry on the family title. A female is often unwanted as she is cast as a burden that would be dependent on her family for everything, so to avoid the responsibility of her expenditure and marriage the parents kill their female child at birth itself by throwing them away in some isolated area or drowning them. Middle class people despite being educated and aware, still try to find out the gender and either celebrate or go on a killing/abortion spree. An abortion is legal here, but an abortion is meant to terminate the fetus in critical conditions, and not meant to kill a child! This heinous crime should be stopped immediately!

Infant the gov has now put lots of laws into action to prevent this type of crime. Boards are put up at every maternity clinic, strictly mentioning that the gender determination is a crime, and punishment will be severe. If you go for an ultrasonagraphy you musn’t even ask the doctor about the gender, which I was exactly aware of and didn’t dare to know what the gender of my child, was. It didn’t even mater so much if my child was a male or female... But god blessed me with both!
