Oh, how miraculous and very moving this account is! How amazing that your little 12lb-er pulled through his 1% chance of survival and is still around today for you to celebrate his life.
Heart warming, well written, and a true little hero to enter in this contest.
Best wishes. Sally

Hello Writer.
That is a wonderful story. I think that anyone who wakes up in surgery and coos must either be an angel or angel protected. You seem to have you son living nearby, which is another blessing.

what a cool little story. It's funny how things like that happen. I'm sure the surgeons were awed as well, and they probably never forgot it either. Great job.

Comment from azwildrosa
I know this story. I feel it's fear. My son was nine when he was taken in. I feared the worse fear I'd ever felt in my life. I cryed tears of relief when the doctor said he was alright.
Johnny awoke from the anesthesia and started cooing at them. He said everyone in the operating room could feel the jolt of inspiration he gave them.
It's amazing the strength and inspiration little lives give us to survive in this crazy world. Your love for your son is beautiful. Thank you for sharing and good luck.

Comment from MissMerri
This is truly an inspiring story, so full of love and optimism and joy. Through vivid writing, we are caught up in the drama of the baby's struggle to live, and the amazing result when he emerges wide-eyed from the surgery. The next to last paragraph is the perfect ending to the story, showing how life's experiences can change us. I enjoyed every word of this. Well done.
