Hyderabad: Dr A.N. Roy, rheumatologist explains, “We resuscitated him then, but so far, his condition has been critical. We have to wait and watch as they are small children. But there are always good chances of recovery.”

Mother Mala Goud is happy her daughter has recovered but remains extremely worried about son Varun.
Meanwhile, not far away, nine-year-old Nabira Fatima is still in a state of shock and Abhinandu, also 9, is wondering what he’s doing in a hospital.

Nine-year-old Karunakar is insisting his mother take him back to school. He’s worried about missing his exams that were scheduled on Saturday. The exam is the only thing he talks about and when asked about the train, he simply looks up and goes into a shell. His right eye is severely damaged and his right cheek is swollen due to trauma.

Six-year-old Darshan meanwhile, celebrated his birthday on Friday along with all the nurses and doctors and even cut cake. He demanded a bottle of Maaza, which arrived immediately. As of Saturday, he remains restless insisting his mother stay with him.
