In Brief
- The Facts:Kate Ogg gave birth to twins, one of them was pronounced dead. Ogg did not want to let her baby go, despite doctors telling her that her baby was gone multiple times. Over the next two hours the baby came back to life.
- Reflect On:How
much do we have yet to discover about our biology? How much do we have
yet to discover about the non physical properties of our biology?
Kate
Ogg gave birth to twins but to her dread, after one of her newborns
struggled to breathe, doctors pronounced him dead. As she held her new
son, she and her husband could not believe what had happened. Perhaps in
a last attempt to say goodbye, or simply by instinct, she unwrapped her
baby and held him against her skin. Her lifeless son – born at 27 weeks
weighing 2lb – was lovingly held and cuddled as she expressed her love
to him while not wanting to let him go. Then something amazing happened.
Throughout the next 2 hours, baby Jamie
began showing signs of life as something was bringing him back to life.
Although they had summoned the doctors on occasion to have another look,
he insisted the actions they were seeing were normal reflexes and that
the baby was still in fact dead. As time continued to pass, Kate decided
to put some breast milk on her finger and feed it to her child. The
child took the breast milk and continued to show more signs of life. The
family was witnessing a miracle. They called the doctor back into the
room once more and this time the doctor was in complete shock as he
realized he was witnessing something he could not understand either.

‘I thought, “Oh my God, what’s going
on”,’ said Mrs Ogg. ‘A short time later he opened his eyes. It was a
miracle. Then he held out his hand and grabbed my finger. ‘He opened his
eyes and moved his head from side to side. The doctor kept shaking his
head saying, “I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it”.’
The power of skin-to-skin contact, also
known as ‘kangaroo care,’ seems to be very evident in this case.
Generally when a child has complications at birth, they are rushed off
to intensive care right away. This doesn’t allow the mother and her love
the opportunity to assist the child in its early minutes. While this
might seem like magical wishful thinking, we are discovering more and
more through science, the true power of the heart and love. The
‘kangaroo care’ technique, named after the way kangaroos hold their
young in a pouch next to their bodies, allows the mother to act as a
human incubator to keep babies warm, stimulated and fed. Studies have
shown that skin-to-skin contact with a mother vs. standard contact,
allows low-weight infants to maintain a higher oxygen saturation after
birth.[1] Pre-term and low birth-weight babies treated with the
skin-to-skin method have also been shown to have lower infection rates,
less severe illness, improved sleep patterns and are at reduced risk of
hypothermia.
It is my opinion that as time goes on we
are going to continue to observe, understand and implement, on a large
scale, procedures and therapies that better reflect what would happen
naturally within the human body and its environment. This is not to say
there isn’t value in standard medical techniques, but simply that
getting rigid with the techniques can often leave out very important
human, love and energy related factors that can be instrumental in any
given situation. I believe that the scientific and medical field can
often be too consumed by their methods at times, not allowing the
not-yet-understood factors to have a role in certain decisions. Efforts
to further test them and their efficacy are rarely brought forth.
Too often we can generate a narrow
minded view and arrogance about what we know through science and this
can close our minds to what else might be possible. Much of what we have
today is dogma, rather than scientific fact in an industry plagued by
corruption. But there is still some good. This of course is not seen
throughout the entire field as there are a number of brilliant
scientific minds who are also very open to the power of consciousness.

While this story is absolutely amazing, I
like to not think of it as a miracle but instead a lesson. Experiences
like this allow us to see and observe the power of things we don’t yet
understand completely so that we can embrace the possibility and begin
exploring it further. This idea that if we cannot touch or see
something, then it must not work effectively has to be let go of if we
are going to embrace various methods of not just healing but dealing
with many things in life.
