Toddler survives nearly 20 minutes under water

Lou Birt - Programme Editor | 13:31 UK time, Tuesday, 10 February 2009

Oluchi Nwaubani asleep on her mother's kneeVictoria spoke to the parents of a toddler today who was thought dead after spending nearly 20 minutes under water.

Oluchi Nwaubani was just two years old when she fell into a pool in a family friend's garden in Bromley last September.

At the time she was given a two per cent chance of survival and doctors considered turning off her life support machine.

Yet after three months in hospital, Oluchi has defied medical expertise by making an almost complete recovery.
