Baby Cole Jordan Groth (born 31 March 2025 in New York, NY, USA) was born with congenital heart disease (CHD) at Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital in Manhattan.[1][2]
A few days later, Cale received surgery to place a stent to treat his heart disease.[1]
Contents
Solicitation for foreskin amputation
Solicitation for medically non-indicated, non-therapeutic circumcision is a popular activity because it increases hospital revenue.[3] 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.[4] It is not clear that Cole, who recently had heart surgery, was stable and healthy. It also is not clear that the legal required informed consent was received by the parents, Tim and Gabrielle Groth, who apparently granted surrogate consent for a non-therapeutic surgical amputation and genital mutilation in violation of standards of medical ethics.[5]
It is unclear why the Groths selected circumcision for Cole, since circumcision of the newborn does not treat or prevent disease and puts the infant boy at risk of bleeding, infection, and surgical misadventure. The most usual reason is to enable the hospital and attending physician to collect a fee.[6]
Cole's circumcision
The circumcision was performed on the night shift at 11 PM. The surgeon has not been identified.[7]
The circumcision wound started to haemorrhage in the night, but was not immediately detected. Loss of only a slight amount of blood can and does cause exsangination and hypovolemic shock.[8] Losing over 2.4 ounces of blood may cause death.
Cole's injuries
Coles' loss of blood caused by his unnecessary circumcision caused substantial organ injury. Part of his intestines died and had to be removed by an abdominal operation. He has been fitted with a colostomy bag.[2]
He will need additional surgery later to reconnect the residual parts of his intestines.[2]
There also is concern about liver damage, kidney damage, and brain damage from the exsanguination.[9] Cole remains in critical condition.[1]
