A forlorn father stayed behind to comfort his bereaved wife after the doctors declared the baby was born stillborn. The relatives took the little baby for burial and were shocked when the little one started to cry when water was sprinkled on it as part of the last rites. The parents joy knew no bounds when they returned with a wailing baby who was rushed to the ICU and is recuperating. The doctor of course has been dismissed from service. It is said that if the baby does not cry on birth, the heart has to be pumped to get it to work. The doctor due to negligence, did not do so and declared it dead. Thank God the baby cried before being buried, or I dread to think of the outcome. We have now a pair of very happy parents who are waiting to take their little angle home.

I am so very happy for the parents. I wander how the baby cried before birth though. I always thought that people were drained of fluids before burial. That is truly amazing if that happened and the baby continued to live and started crying after all of that. I think the doctor should be dismissed also for such negligence.
