Episode Details

A five-month-old baby boy, Theo, is thriving after groundbreaking in-utero surgery — the first of its kind performed in the U.S. for gastroschisis at just 26 weeks pregnant. His parents traveled from London to Texas Children’s Hospital for this pioneering FDA trial, where surgeons used minimally invasive techniques to repair his condition before birth. Theo stayed in the womb to heal, was born full-term and healthy, started breastfeeding immediately, and went home just three days later. Now, he’s a happy, active baby — proof that medical innovation can change lives even before the first breath.
