Mother's Touch

This article tells the story of a premature baby porclaimed dead by doctors, then given to his Mum and after a few minutes of cuddling, starts to move.

Who knows whether it is recorded completely accurately (particularly when it says 5 minutes after death), but I do remember how fragile my own premature baby seemed - and while nurses would tell me to go home, have a break etc - I was determined to be as close to him as possible. Who knows what effect this had on his health?
