If you're thousands of feet in the air and you've witnessed a toddler experiencing a severe asthma attack, but without a proper medication, what would you do?
This is the same problem that the passengers on the Air Canada flight have witnessed.
They claim that there's this toddler in their plane who's experiencing a severe asthma attack, but his medications were mistakenly placed in their checked baggage. This kid needs immediate treatment, but no one knows what to do.
The good thing is that a robotic surgery doctor named Khursid Guru was on the same flight. Despite that he don't usually handle young patients, he still didn't think twice to help.
The Director of Robotic Surgery at the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in New York created an improvised nebulizer for the toddler.
With the use of an oxygen tank, a plastic bottle, a cup, electrical tape and an adult inhaler, he managed to create a nebulizer that saved the toddler's life.
