Cole Jordan Groth (born 31 March 2025 in New York, New York, USA) was born with congenital heart disease (CHD) at Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital in Manhattan.[1]
A few days later, Cale received surgery to place a stent to relieve his heart disease.[1]
Solicitation for foreskin amputation
There are no medical indications for circumcision of the newborn. It is a medically-unnecessary, non-therapeutic procedure. Circumcision creates horrible pain and trauma, so an infant must be "stable and healthy" to survive the surgery.[2] It is not clear that Cole, who had recently had heart surgery, was stable and healthy. It also is not clear that informed consent was received by the parents, Tim and Gabrielle Groth, who apparently granted surrogate consent for a non-therapeutic surgical amputation in violation of standards of medical ethics.
