Couple who lost 3 kids Mumbra building collapse blessed with baby girl


Mumbai, Apr 5 (Mid-day) : Just a year ago, the Ansaris, who stayed on the fifth floor of a building at Lucky Compound, Mumbra were grieving the loss of their three children. Yesterday, it feels like one of them came back, when Jainab Ansari delivered a baby girl. Jainab (38) was one of the survivors when the building came crashing down on April 4, 2013, killing 74.

Of these 18 were children. The couple lost Sohail (14), Shabina (14), and Shabnam (10). However, with the arrival of their baby girl at 11.15 pm yesterday, the couple have something to celebrate now. “I lost three of my children and was also injured. My husband was not at home when the accident occurred, and therefore did not suffer any injuries. However, the feeling of losing three kids at once was traumatising. The new baby girl feels like one of our daughters who died came back,” said Jainab, who is admitted in Nerul’s DY Patil Hospital for the delivery.

The baby is a premature delivery and is presently in the neo-natal intensive care unit (ICU) of the hospital. Due to the C-section, Jainab would be required to stay longer in the hospital. The doctor at the hospital said, “The mother has diabetes and the delivery has happened in 32 weeks. Therefore she is not stable enough to be sent home so soon.” The couple presently lives near Jainab’s mother’s home after the accident occurred. Even though happiness seems to have found its way to the Ansaris, Jainab still gets nightmares about the collapse and the bodily injuries that are a reminder of the accident. This paper had also reported about how their son Shahid was too depressed to go to school.
