Nurse Angela Farnan had been looking after baby Blaze who was born with an underdeveloped heart for months when the child's mother asked her if she wanted to adopt him
In a heartwarming story, an Illinois nurse adopted a baby boy with a congenital heart defect who was under her care throughout his intense medical treatment.
Nurse Angela Farnan was looking after baby Blaze who was born with an underdeveloped heart on May 30, 2017 at the OSF HealthCare Children's Hospital in Illinois, according to Daily Mail. His condition required multiple life-threatening operations and constant medical care. Baby Blaze's first surgery took place when he was just three days old.
The baby was ordered to remain in the hospital or in medical foster care for 10 months before his next operation. That is when Farnan stepped in to look after the baby. She had been working in the hospital for 32 years.
