Pop singer GARY NUMAN faced an agonising wait to see if his daughter ECHO would survive after she was born with severe respiratory problems.

But Numan was petrified as doctors battled to save their youngest girl when she was innate premature utmost year (07).
He says, "The first month was horrible. Echo was born OK and quite premature. Within an hour, her lung started to stick and her ventilation became unusual.
"They whisked her away and put tubes all over her. It was really bad and we were really disturbed about her. It took two weeks for her to come out of that stage, then deuce weeks in special tending because she wasn't feeding properly. However, she's great now."
