Baby Olivia saved after doctors ‘chill’ her brain

A MOTHER yesterday thanked doctors for saving her newborn daughter by “chilling” the baby’s brain for three days.

Olivia Templar underwent the procedure after she was starved of oxygen for 10 minutes during a traumatic birth at St Michael’s Hospital in Bristol.

She was fitted with a head cap attached to a cooling machine to prevent her suffering brain damage or cerebral palsy.
