A follow up to this story;
Baby Noor, a 3-month-old Iraqi girl in urgent need of medical attention to treat a potentially fatal birth defect, was resting early Friday at a U.S. base in western Baghdad before being flown to the United States for treatment.
Noor was scheduled to be flown out of Iraq on a U.S. military plane around mid-morning Friday to Kuwait and then on to Atlanta on a commercial flight, said CNN cameraman Joe Duran, who is embedded with the U.S. military. She will be accompanied by her father and grandmother, he said.
