This UCLA Doctor Delivered A Baby On A Flight From Taiwan To LA

Imagine a baby being delivered on a flight! The experience sounds harrowing, doesn’t it?

 

Well, on a recent flight on China Air from Taiwan to Los Angeles, a pregnant passenger went into early labor. Fortunately, there was a physician from the University of California, Los Angeles, Dr. Angelica Zen, on board!

 

Dr. Zen was coming back from her honeymoon in Bali when flight attendants were asking for the assistance of any medical professionals. Even though this is not her expertise, she was willing to help ( speaking Mandarin Chinese helped so she could communicate with the mother).

 

“My training is in internal medicine pediatrics so we do adults and kids but really no pregnant woman at all, so since my training we haven’t done much OBGYN,” said Zen to abc7. “I was a little bit nervous.”

Zen had never delivered a baby by herself, but she didn’t hesitate to help.

Meanwhile, instead of continuing to California, the captain changed course and headed to the nearest airport, which was Anchorage, Alaska, three hours away.

Zen speaks Mandarin and was able to talk to the mother as well.

“I had very limited supplies with me and it was very difficult,” said Zen. “We had to work under very constrained circumstances.”

She said the flight attendants were like her stand-in nurses, and most of the passengers were asleep until the cabin lights came on for the delivery.

 

The Baby girl was born safely and they had a emergency landing in Anchorage, AK. Now, the real question, what would be baby’s citizenship?

This Owner of a Million-dollar Mansion has Been Homeless for the Past Six Months

 

A private family matter has become very public in the Taylor Lake Village community.

 

A dispute between a husband and his doctor wife has left him outside, sleeping and living in the yard of his million dollar mansion. According to the police, it’s been going on for the last six months and Sharafat Khan has been forced to live outdoors on and off during that time.

 

Neighbors are very worried because he is elderly, in poor health and in a fragile state.

 

 

 

“He’s wearing the same clothing, it’s dirty,” neighbor Debbie Scoggins said. “He has no bathroom facilities, no shoes.”

 

“The weather is starting to get colder,” Laurel Stout, who lives across the street, said. “He’s very frail, he can’t even walk. I’m afraid he is going to die out here in his yard.”

 

Khan told KPRC 2 his wife kicked him out of the house several months ago, took away his keys and had the locks changed. He said he doesn’t have access to their money and is basically homeless even though he owns half of their mansion.

 

Khan doesn’t feel like he should have to leave because the home and property are just as much his. He said he wants to be allowed inside and he’s hoping he can pressure her into changing her mind.

“She doesn’t want me to have any sort of comfort,” he said.

 

Night after night he sleeps on the front porch wrapped in a sheet. During the day he tries to find shade under the trees. On Monday he was eating saltine crackers and drinking a warm bottle of water.

 

Neighbors said if they take him blankets and pillows, the wife takes them away.

 

There are signs posted all over the home instructing the neighbors not to help him or feed him.

 

Khan said the dispute is over his relationship with other family members. She wanted him to cut ties but he refused.

 

Police officers who are familiar with the situation said they have been called out to the home 20 to 30 times in the last six months. There is nothing legally they can do because Khan has every right to be there and they can’t force his wife to let him in.

“Our hands are tied,” one officer said.

 

Someone close to the situation said Khan’s wife claims she can’t file for divorce because she and her husband practice Islam and they strictly follow Sharia law. Khan told KPRC this has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with money.

“She doesn’t want to hand over half her fortune,” he said.

 

He can’t file for divorce because he claims he can’t afford to.

 

 

Can you imagine the national outrage if their roles were reversed? Imagine a man not letting his elderly wife in their million dollar home, and she had to take refuge in their yard for 6 months. Pres Obama would be there in a half hour walking the poor lady in personally. What you’re seeing is how it is guys – ESPECIALLY in Texas. No one is getting involved because it’s a man forced out. If the same man were to miss 1 child support payment he could expect to face jail time. Here, on national TV, we see a woman break the law and illegally force an eviction on her husband over a private estate that is mutually owned in a community property state.
