Kate Ogg, a mother from Australia is one living example that proves the bond between a mother and a child is so strong that it can calm their disturbed soul and heal their broken hearts. Her story will show you the amazing and unbreakable connection that is shared by every mother and their child.
Kate Ogg and her husband David always wanted to have children of their own. After the couple had spent 3 years trying to conceive, they were given the happy news. Kate became pregnant with twins and the couple was super excited to welcome their babies into the world. Soon, Kate prematurely delivered the twins named Emily, and Jamie on 25 March 2010 but their happiness was short-lived. Jamie was silent and motionless. The doctors knew something was wrong with the newborn, so they gathered around the newborn and did everything they could to save the baby. In spite of their efforts, they could not save the baby and so proclaimed him no longer alive.
The couple could not believe it. They had waited for their children for so long. After declaring the baby who left his life, the nurse brought the body of the baby boy and placed him across his mother’s chest. Recalling the incident, Kate said: “I’d carried him inside me for only six months – not long enough – but I wanted to meet him, and to hold him, and for him to know us,”. Because of wanting to keep her child warm, this mother kept him close to her chest with tears in her eyes. Kate said: “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,”.
The woman even asked her husband to remove his shirt and join them on the hospital bed. The couple laid next to each other looking at their lifeless baby boy. The mother said: “We’d resigned ourselves to the fact that we were going to lose him, and we were just trying to make the most of those last, precious moments,”.
The event following was nothing but a miracle. After two hours of laying on his mom’s chest inside the warmth of their embrace, Jamie started moving. The baby’s breathing got stronger. Hospital staff rushed back to help him and together brought the baby back to life.
Kate and David happier was extremely happy and the couple are thankful that their boy could make it. Doctors were also shocked by what had happened. David said: “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,”
“We feel so fortunate, we’re the luckiest people in the world.”
It has been 10 years since the incident and the couple thankful for the miracle that changed their lives. The twins now have a little brother and are healthy, cheerful kids.
