" I looked at The Baby , and she was stable, and I looked at the mom and she was OK, " says Dr Khatib.
" So I was like, 'Congratulations it's a Girl . ' Then the entire plane started clapping and cheering and was like 'Oh right, I'm on a plane and everybody is watching this. '"
The Bbc is not responsible for the content of external sites." The Best part of The Story is that she decided to name The Baby after me, " she adds.
As A Gift to her namesake, she gave Miracle Aisha the gold necklace that she was wearing with the name Aisha written in Arabic.
" I thought I'd give it to her and she'll have a little token of The Doctor that delivered her 35,000 feet in the air while flying over the Nile. "
