A premature baby declared dead by doctors at a hospital in Paraguay was found to be alive hours later when he was taken home for a funeral wake.
Jose Alvarenga said he had discovered his son was alive after he heard crying from the box in which he was placed.

OK on reflection it's more likely the standard of Doctor was lacking perhaps.

Isn't it amazing how perspective can change everything? i see babies as amazing, beautiful, wonderful, gorgeous, angelic, lovely scented miracles.....Perhaps it's the reality that i can't have one that makes their lives so precious to me... i guess while it would scare the hell out of me, i would still be grateful no matter how the baby came into my life.

Perspective.......

When I see a baby, I see a miniaturized obese bald man, and I do not find obese bald men beautiful.

Now if this thread were about a pug puppy coming back to life, then I would be all agog.

In a morgue the cold might activate their metabolism. In a coffin similarly an increased carbon dioxide content might stimulate their breathing. If so, then if they had not been stored that way, they might truely have died.

If you haven't heard, the term "Saved by the the bell" used to mean something. In graves with the recently buried they would put in a hole and a string to a bell. This after a few times of exhuming coffins for whatever reasons and finding that the person was not really dead.

I guess that in practice it saved a few lives, but the fact that they do not embalm there saved a baby's life.

Now really, where should we be standing on this issue ? Where is the high ground ? At the very least the issue is perplexing. I guess it just stands to reason, trying to be right is not as easy as it is cracked up to be. But in the US that baby would be dead.

Morally intriguing to say the least.

if a baby is born dead, in a hospital, in this country, they have to have an autopsy.  and presumably the doctor in the morgue cutting into the baby would cause it to scream, or it would be noticed that baby dear is kinda WARM for a corpse, and the appropriate measures would be taken.

mama came home from nursing school telling us of a patient sent to the morgue who wasnt nearly as dead as first thought.  that was in 1980.  so stranger things have happened.

"Initially, the baby didn't move, he practically didn't have any respiratory reflexes, nor did we hear a heartbeat and, as a result, we declared a premature fetus of 24 weeks dead," Weber told Reuters Television".
nothing about trying for an hour, but... who knows.
