Now with much expectation, the world is waiting to see OkikiJesu Olawuyi grab a fitting place in the Guinness Book of World Records, unlike at the beginning when they was little or no hope for our miracle baby.
Many across the world want to see this happen and what that means is that a Nigerian child is well on her way to making history once she scales the mountain of surgeries standing in her path of life.
OkikiJesu Olawuyi was born without a skull but not without a will and fight to live.
Bones from her hands are being obtained to construct a skull bone to help her live.
Amazingly, she is winning this battle for her life at John Hopkins University in The United States of America.
There, they are the best hands the world can assemble and are with her every passing hour fighting a medical war to give life to a miracle child who has announced to the entire human community that she has something different to offer.
First grade surgeons, irrespective of colour, race and tongue are tasking their expertise to see that this wonder of the 21st century lives to tell her story and reports say that they are doing a great job to save her.
OkikiJesu is getting moral and material support from across the world to help her live. An avalanche of support is coming her way.
Her parents are carrying the burden of pain and anguish with stoic patience.
They are fighting to remedy a medical case they cannot tell how it all started. The child needs a lot more financial assistance to pull through, her father, Mr. Caleb Olawuyi, says.
He disclosed that she needed an additional $500,000 to undergo the final operation that would enable her live a normal life.
Experts say that it is possible and can be achieved.
While appealing for generous support from government, corporate organizations and private individuals to help the baby live, Mr. Olawuyi, has equally urged government to set up funds to assist babies afflicted with critical ailments.
Speaking straight from the heart, he noted that one needed to be close to a child in pains to know how that child feels.
