Doctors fear an eight-week-old baby who suffered catastrophic brain injuries may never be able to see or walk again.
The newborn, Nathaniel, was airlifted to hospital in Perth after a Triple Zero call earlier this month.
When he arrived, doctors found the child had no brain activity and they feared he would not survive.
Nathaniel was flown to Princess Margaret Hospital after his 24-year-old father called emergency services saying he was unresponsive. His mother, 20, was not present at the time.
The eight-week-old suffered the injuries between October 7 and October 9 at the family's home in Narrogin.
His aunt says he has bleeding on his brain, and despite his ventilator being switched off last week, Nathaniel is still surviving. 'We were told five minutes to an hour and he kept going,' Ms Taylor said.
'He's now opening his eyes, wriggling around.'
The extent of his brain damage will not be known until he recovers further, but recent tests show Nathaniel's eyes are not responding to light.
The eight-week-old also has two spinal fractures but is now feeding through a tube.
Police have questioned both his parents over the incident, but no one has been charged.
