PHUKET: A newborn baby boy is currently in the care of Patong Hospital after being found dumped in a local launderette yesterday.

 

A staffer from the hospital has said that the baby was no more than 12 hours old at the time he was found.

 

At around 2:30pm yesterday (Oct 8), Lt Col Weerapong Rakkito of the Patong Police received information from a Patong resident that a baby boy had been found left on a shelf in local launderette close to the Kapkauy Restaurant on Phrabaramee Soi 2.

Sad to have to start life with the huge disadvantage of not having loving parents from day 1 onwards.

Hopefully one of the hospital staff might adopt the wee boy.
