A Myanmar mother, identified as Win, fled from Nakhon Pathom Hospital with her newborn son, who was suffering from a serious infection.

 

The incident occurred after she feared being unable to afford the medical bills. The baby, born on 2 October, was only 19 days old and had a urinary tract infection, requiring ongoing treatment.

 

The hospital staff noticed the child’s disappearance and, after checking CCTV footage, confirmed that Win and her husband had taken the baby.

 

Concerned for the child’s life, hospital officials contacted the Nakhon Chai Si Police and the Nakhon Pathom Highway Patrol for assistance.

 

Authorities eventually located the family at a workers' residence where Win was employed. After negotiations, Win agreed to return the baby to the hospital, where further treatment was arranged, reported Siam Rath.

 

Win later admitted that her decision to flee stemmed from financial concerns. Nakhon Pathom Hospital’s Director, Dr. Surachai Chokkarachitchai, assured that the hospital would cover the costs of the baby’s treatment until his condition stabilises.
