Dead Premature Baby Who Came Back To Life After Mum Cuddled Him by wenson(m): 8:45am On Mar 14, 2015
First-time parents Kate and David Ogg were heartbroken
when they were told one of their twins – born 2 minutes
apart at just 26 weeks – had stopped breathing and
had just moments to live. Thinking it was the only time
they would have with the tiny boy they had already
decided to name Jamie, Kate asked to be able to hold
the lifeless child, and told David to climb into the
hospital bed for a tender embrace.
What happened next was nothing short of a miracle.
In this mother’s loving arms, the little boy started
moving, and his breathing grew stronger. Hospital staff
rushed back to his aid and together brought the baby
back to life.
Five years on, Jamie Ogg (pictured right) is a healthy,
happy kid whose biggest problem regarding his troubled
entry in the world is having a little brother who tells
anyone who’ll listen that he used to be dead but now
he’s alive.
After years of trying to fall pregnant, the Queensland
couple were delighted to find out they were having
twins – the ‘pigeon pair’ of a boy and girl.
But just six months into the pregnancy they found
themselves in the delivery room and facing premature
births.
Jamie was born first on March 25, 2010 and his sister
Emily followed two minutes later.
‘They were both born in their sac but Jamie didn’t make
a noise when they tore it open. Emily let out a big wail,’
Ms Ogg told Daily Mail Australia.
‘We looked over and everyone was crowding around
Jamie – there was about 20 people in the room. The
vibe wasn’t very good.
‘He stopped breathing and his heartbeat was nearly
gone. After 20 minutes they stopped working on him.’
The doctor sat on the end of Ms Ogg’s hospital bed and
asked the couple if they had a name picked out. He
then informed them that there was nothing more they
could do to save Jamie.
‘I saw him gasp but the doctor said it was no use. I
took Jamie off the doctor, asked everyone to leave. He
was cold and I just wanted him to be warm,’ she said.
‘We had tried for years to have kids and I felt so guilty.
I just wanted to cuddle him. I unwrapped him and
ordered my husband to take his shirt off and climb into
the bed.
‘I know it sounds stupid, but if he was still gasping
there was still a sign of life so I wasn’t going to give up
easily.
‘We were trying to entice him to stay. We explained his
name and that he had a twin that he had to look out
for and how hard we tried to have him.
‘He suddenly gasped… then he opened his eyes. He was
breathing and grabbing Dave’s finger.
‘If we had let the doctor walk out of the room with him,
Jamie would have been dead.’
Jamie and Emily are now about to turn five years old
and their parents have only recently told them of the
miraculous story.
‘Emily burst into tears, she was really upset and she
kept hugging Jamie,’ Ms Ogg said.
‘They love to talk about when they were babies.
‘They have a little brother Charlie who loves telling
anyone who listens. He’ll say: “When I was born I was
fat and the twins were skinny. Jamie was also dead but
now he is alive”.’
Emily and Jamie also have a little brother Charlie, 4, and
regularly talk about their miracle birth story
Remarkably, Jamie has not encountered one medical
problem in the five years since his birth

Glory be to the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, the giver of life.

The power of (parental) love is unquantifiable
