What a lovely story that is Rachel...thanks for posting it....had me in tears,of happiness....... Very Happy

..especially the part where it said

"He wasn't moving at all and we just started talking to him.

"We told him what his name was and that he had a sister. We told him the things we wanted to do with him throughout his life."

After two hours, he began showing signs of life.

What an extraordinarily lucky little boy Jamie is ...and what a Mum!

Fuller story, more photographs... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1306283/Miracle-premature-baby-declared-dead-doctors-revived-mothers-touch.html

Now that is the proper use of the word Miracle, since absence of breathing (and therefore oxygen) for anything longer than ten minutes normally results in severe brain damage even if consciousness is (re)gained (or at least that's how I understood things).

A lovely, heartwarming story.
