PHOTO: MIRACLE!! skin on skin brings baby back to life TWO HOURS after declared dead
so by 8:00 p.m. if we write on here it will appear as the next day? I was looking for two jokes, one i found on amazing photos on facebook, but i can't get it to copy over. grrrrr. then there is one of kate middleton inspecting the troops and smiling and it says its so funny that you are willing to die for the upper classes (or something like that) and i can't find that one at all. what good is it, if i can't copy it over.
yahoo changed its format and IT SUCKS. if its not broken, how about DON'T FIX IT! on a good note, ds is still working well. amazing.
BABY DECLARED DEAD, CAME BACK TO LIFE from nurturing it skin to skin!!
"It was a final chance to say goodbye for grieving mother Kate Ogg after doctors gave up hope of saving her premature baby.
She tearfully told her lifeless son - born at 27 weeks weighing 2lb - how much she loved him and cuddled him tightly, not wanting to let him go.
Although little Jamie's twin sister Emily had been delivered successfully, doctors had given Mrs. Ogg the news all mothers dread - that after 20 minutes of battling to get her son to breathe, they had declared him dead.
Having given up on a miracle, Mrs. Ogg unwrapped the baby from his blanket and held him against her skin.
And then an extraordinary thing happened. After TWO HOURS of being hugged, touched and spoken to by his mother, the little boy began showing signs of life.
At first, it was just a gasp for air that was dismissed by doctors as a reflex action. But then the startled mother fed him a little breast milk on her finger and he started breathing normally.
'I thought, "Oh my God, what's going on",' said Mrs Ogg.
'A short time later he opened his eyes. It was a miracle. Then he held out his hand and grabbed my finger. 'He opened his eyes and moved his head from side to side.
The doctor kept shaking his head saying, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it".
'The Australian mother spoke publicly for the first time yesterday to highlight the importance of skin-on-skin care for sick babies, which is being used at an increasing number of British hospitals.
In most cases, babies are rushed off to intensive care if there is a serious problem during the birth.
But the 'kangaroo care' technique, named after the way kangaroos hold their young in a pouch next to their bodies, allows the mother to act as a human incubator to keep babies warm, stimulated and fed.
Pre-term and low birth-weight babies treated with the skin-to-skin method have also been shown to have
lower infection rates, less severe illness, improved sleep patterns and are at reduced risk of hypothermia.
Her husband had this to say: 'Luckily I've got a very strong, very smart wife. 'She instinctively did what she did. If she hadn't done that, Jamie probably wouldn't be here.' "

What a wonderful upbeat story, thanks so much for sharing with us.
Have a great week. Love Ya.
My goodness, what a beautiful story! That\'s a mother\'s instinct for ya. Always listen to your gut! I\'ve proven that to be a true, true fact. Those little \"bad feelings\" you get about somebody, something..,,,,,whatever??? LISTEN TO THOSE FEELINGS. I believe it\'s Gods way of protecting us. Others may not believe that God speaks to us.....but I would say that this woman instinctively knew that her baby needed her. Instinct doesn\'t come out of a tube, or a pill....it\'s inborn. We were created that way!! IMHO!!!
I agree. there is a little more to the story. i didn\'t realize the last paragraphs didn\'t copy. they claim they are using the technique in british hospitals, just like they brought back, the laying on of hands to heal. our bodies release their own chemicals and hormones from TOUCH and it has a healing affect.
with babies its also called FAILURE TO THRIVE if they are not touched, they can die from being ignored. they need volunteers in hospitals just to hold the babies, especially the orphans...but you never see signs anywhere explaining where to sign up and its soooo important. what a great hobby or volunteer effort and it makes all the difference. all you have to do is hold them for an hour or two as volunteers as many days as the person is able to give.
