Brooklyn Toddler Dies After Circumcision
According to the story below, the hospital staff noticed something was wrong but didn’t rush him to the E.R. until 4 hours later. The story doesn’t reveal why this 2-year-old was having a circumcision. Perhaps there was an urgent medical need but this story serves as a reminder that any surgery can kill and parents should be very wary about allowing elective surgery on their child.
Circumcision is very rarely medically necessary. It is cosmetic surgery for baby boys. Don’t cut your baby!
