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.
