After one of the deadliest earthquakes to surge through Syria and Turkey, Baby Aya has been dubbed "the little miracle" for having been rescued from the rubble completely unharmed with her umbilical cord still connecting her to her deceased mother. Hundreds of thousands of people have been behind the brave effort of recovery teams, volunteers, and local nongovernmental organizations, yet it was the story of baby Aya, born moments before the devastating quake, that captivated people around the world.

Videos went viral on social media of a man sprinting away from the rubble in Aleppo holding a tiny baby blanketed in dust. The overwhelming support for baby Aya's miraculous recovery did not end there. Thousands of people on social media have asked for details to adopt her with some even seeking to fund her upbringing.
