Pittsburgh Honors Beloved Doctor Who Sang to Over 8,000 Newborns
Dr. Carey Andrew-Jaja has delivered thousands of babies during his 40 years of medical practice. And he’s welcomed each little one in an extra special way: with a song.
“So, to me, it’s a wonderful thing in my hands, the miracle of life. The rest of it is that it’s a beautiful world we live in. You forget about all the crisis going on everywhere for a moment when you see that miracle of life in front of you,” he added. “He has passed on the baton to me,” he recalled in the video. “I took it over and I started to sing to my babies ever since then and I do it every time.”Over the years, Dr. Andrew-Jaja has sung songs like “Happy Birthday” and Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World,” according to Good Morning America. He retired from delivering babies two years ago, but opted to sing a special song to a patient’s newborn on June 16.
