[|Human|] I have a friend who s daughter just had a baby yesterday. The infant boy has 2 holes in his lungs. He was 8lbs 9 ounces. They took him by C section 2 weeks early. He is currently in the NICU and the doctors say he will reamin there for 2 weeks. Is this something the infant can die from? He is currently not on a respirator.
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Your description of problem doesn't project a clear picture. Lungs normally have the lot of tiny holes inside which gas exchange occurs, but I am sure you are talking about something different here. However, the point that child is not on ventilator is very encouraging and so this might not lead to death in the child. But, till I know what the exact problem in the baby is, It's hard to predict. At this point, I think you should just trust the caring doctor. It seems like the baby is getting good care. Happy to clear further doubts. Take care.
