Doctors from the hospital in Dobrich managed to save the life of a child with a massive stroke. On November 14 the 12-year-old boy was admitted in a very serious condition and with epileptic seizures. Subsequently, he fell into a coma, in which he remained for about a week and his only vital functions were breathing and heart rate. The pediatricians from the health institution say that it is the first time they see such a severe stroke affecting a child. The hospital points out that the child's life is already out of danger but a long rehabilitation is forthcoming.
