Heartwarmer - Baby survives fall from train..
Not everyting in the world is doom and gloom...
A baby delivered in a train lavatory has survived tumbling down through the bottom of the carriage and onto the tracks.
Passengers on the West Bengal Tata-Chapra Express raised the alarm when they saw Rinku Debi Ray, 28, jump from the speeding carriage in what they believed was a suicide attempt.
Mrs Ray later explained she had been travelling to her parents home in Bihar, where she was planning to deliver her second child, with her husband Bhola and their four-year-old daughter, when she felt sharp pains in her abdomen.
She went into the lavatory hoping to relieve the pain, but instead suddenly gave birth. The baby fell into the lavatory bowl and through the flap onto the tracks under the speeding train, and her mother quickly ran out of the lavatory and jumped from the carriage to find the child.
Her husband, who pulled the emergency cord, and other passengers who saw her jump, said she injured herself in her leap, but managed to get up and start running back to where the child tumbled onto the track.
When the train came to a halt just over a mile down the line, Mr Roy and other passengers began searching for them. "We got off the train and started looking for my wife. After an hour we found Rinku sitting beside the track with the baby in her lap," said Bhola Roy, a 33 year old businessman from Rourkela, West Bengal.
His wife and new baby were transferred to Purelia district hospital where both are now recovering from their ordeal, while the railway station manager said the baby's survival was a "miracle".

I read this a couple fo days ...I read this a couple fo days back and I was amazed to find that a lady delivered baby in a train toilet The baby slipped down the commode & on realizing the same the lady jumped out of the train Both mother & baby escaped unhurt
Few days back I read that A man was fired at but the bullet hit a 5 rupee coin in his purse & got deflected...
And there are few people who die without a valid reason...just collapse and die...that made me think Is there really a super power? or some people just super lucky???

Miracle indeed! There is ...Miracle indeed!
There is something so special about babies. This story reminds me of a news clip I saw once on TV about dozens of babies being pulled out ALIVE from the rubble of a collapsed building. STill gives me the goosebumps...

She went to 'relieve' herself in the loo and couldn't tell the difference?!

some things are just too ...some things are just too bizarre to have a sensible explanation....they happen just for no reason....or for reasons that are quite beyond the logical thinking capabilities of a normal human brain.... :-/

My aunt told me before that ...My aunt told me before that when she was about to give birth she felt she just wanted to "relieve" herself. She was young then and it was her first pregnancy. She did not know the difference.

remind me to never ...take a stroll along railroad tracks in India. Why do the trains not have some sort of containment system for the waste? Why do they let it simply fall out onto the ground? That is disgusting!
svelte_saggi said
deedee.... ...no,they don't have any containment system coz that's what the manufacturers of the train coaches think is the best way to keep the toilets clean and odorless during long distance runs like 2-3 days.it works to a certain degree...though not completely,i must say. and it certainly wouldn't be a very good idea to stroll along the railroad tracks in any country on the subcontinent for that matter.... :-)
