Open your eyes to the world for a week, was found abandoned on the side of street wearing only a swimsuit and a plastic bag as a blanket. But the luck of the newborn than a week left Monday afternoon near a field in Cormano, in the Milanese, is called Josephine. It was she, 75 year old owner of a vegetable garden in the area, to see the little roadside and save his life by giving the alarm. The miracle of Easter Monday was recorded around 14:30, when Josephine decided to take a stroll through the gardens.

The baby abandoned and saved

 

The olive complexion

“I thought it was a doll after a moment I feel my legs tremble and cry. ” The woman approached and without wasting time he asked for help to her husband on his cell phone and he, while it reached, phoned to 112. On site are immediately noticed a 118 ambulance and a patrol of the police in Sesto San Giovanni. She did not dare to touch the baby. He expected it to be medical personnel to take him. Little was transported to the hospital Niguarda Milan, where he arrived in good condition although cold as those who have abandoned him wearing only a cotton romper. The doctors of the Department of Neonatology, where he was hospitalized, consider that probably was given birth at home, about a week ago. Olive complexion of the small suggests that may have foreign origin, but it is early to certainties.

Mother

Now we try the mother. On the identity of the woman is still dark. The police are working to track her down. Risks a complaint for abandonment of a minor. The military does not think that she (or whoever she has abandoned the small) wanted to eliminate it. The location where it was abandoned, just at the roadside, is to imagine that the baby was brought there aboard a vehicle that has subsequently approached close to the curb so that those who had in her arms could open the door and lay it on ‘ asphalt at a point where it was visible and could be saved. So it was. Now the fate of the child is in the hands of the Juvenile Court that will trigger the procedures for the award and later for the eventual adoption of a new family.
