A U.S. Marine who was left quadriplegic due to a sniper has beat all odds by welcoming a baby daughter with his wife. FathersDay
A U.S. Marine who was left quadriplegic after sustaining sniper wounds in Iraq welcomed a miracle baby girl against all odds, with the help of a New York City doctor whose own father was paralyzed from military service.
He became a quadriplegic after suffering spinal cord injuries from sniper fire during his time in Iraq in 2004. Eventually, Gonzalez found Dr. Tomer Singer, the vice chair, OB/GYN at Lenox Hill Hospital, Northwell Health in New York City, with whom he had an unexpected coincidence: Singer himself was conceived through artificial insemination after his own father was shot in the Israeli military in the 1960s.Moreover,"Visnu’s injury was very similar to my father’s injury," Singer told"GMA.
After almost three years of treatments, Singer said he remembers delivering the good news to the couple, saying even he grew emotional."I'll never forget the words he tell me, 'Mazel Tov! You're pregnant!" Machado recalled.
