Bhubaneswar/New Delhi: Jaga, one of the separated conjoined twins of Kandhamal district was moved out of the ICU to the general ward today, said sources from AIIMS, New Delhi.
Earlier, Neurosurgery Department head of AIIMS, Ashok Mohapatra, who is on a tour to Odisha had informed that Jaga had started consuming semi-liquid food like banana juice and rice pudding.
According to sources, Jaga was kept in isolation fearing contamination. His mother was allowed to go near him as he recognised and was responding to her.
Meanwhile sources informed that Kalia has also showed signs of improvement but is recovering slowly. He is presently in the ICU and a team of doctors are monitoring his each and every movement.
A daily report on his condition is prepared and is studied by experts, based on which his treatment and medication are being decided, informed sources.
The current phase after the separation surgery is very crucial as all are waiting for the twins’ recovery. The twins will be under supervision of AIIMS doctors for two more months, added sources.
