Dead baby wakes up in the morgue

United States
February 10, 2016 8:24am CST
A Chinese baby was born prematurely and he was not doing very well. After spending over three weeks in the hospital he was allowed to go home. Unfortunate a few days later he took a turn for the worse. The doctor issued a death certificate when the baby's heart stopped beating. The family made plans to cremate him. The father, protective to the end, wrapped the baby in heavy blankets for the trip to the morgue where the temperature was 10 degrees. To the amazement of everyone, 15 hours later the baby woke up - he is alive. The doctors can't say if he will live much longer or not. But he sure is a tough little guy isn't he.

It is certainly amazing to hear of these stories. It's strange how the body works sometimes.

It certainly, if this baby lives it will have stories to tell.

@AbbyGreenhill I do hope he does survive. Whether he does or to, his parents will certainly be able to talk about it.

This has most likely happened to others over the years and some may even have been buried or cremated. Of course it is rare, especially for a young child.

They thought it was safe. They also didn't say 'how' premature he was.
