    Miracle at Memorial: Tracey Hermanstorfer & Baby Die During Labor, Revived

    Some are calling it a Christmas miracle... a mom and her baby die during labor, but doctors at Memorial Hospital in Colorado Springs were able to bring them both back to life.http://www.kktv.com/home/headlines/80244642.html




    Then came the Hermanstorfer's Christmas miracle. "Immediately after delivering him, her pulse came back," said Dr. Martin. Martin tells 11 News, when pregnant women have complications, they have been known to recover once the baby is delivered.

    I read this story last night and it is very touching. Sounds like a miracle at least to this family it was a miracle:) If you read the story even the doctors are calling it a miracle.

    That is amazing. Wow. I have to say that as a spiritual person, a hand was resting on them that day and that every day is a miracle and should never be taken for granted (by them or anyone).

    Tracey Hermanstorfer came back to life to meet her newborn (and vice-versa)


    [sic]a young mother died during labor with a still-born baby on Christmas Eve but both mom and baby came back to life just minutes later, before the eyes of the nearly heartbroken, stunned father.

    "Half of my family was lying there right in front of me -- there's no other way to say it -- dead," Mike Hermanstorfer told ABC News' Colorado affiliate KRDO. "I lost all feeling. Once her heartbeat stopped, I felt like mine did too."

    Hermanstorfer's wife, Tracey, had suffered cardiac arrest while she was in labor at Memorial Hospital in Colorado Springs.

    "They were getting ready to put a catheter in and I closed my eyes and don't remember anything after that," Tracey said.

    She had no pulse, no heartbeat, was not breathing and was turning "gray," Dr. Stephanie Martin, director of maternal fetal medicine at Colorado's Memorial Hospital, told CBS News' Colorado affiliate KKTV. "She was dead."

    "I sat there with my wife's hand in mine, ice cold," Mike told KKTV.

    After trying to revive Tracey for several minutes to no avail, doctors ordered an emergency C-section with no anesthesia in an attempt to save the baby. The baby was delivered, but it too was not breathing.

    But then Mike and the doctors were astounded when Tracey's pulse returned, just after birth. Doctors quickly wheeled Tracey into surgery to complete the C-section. Then, while the mom was being operated on, other doctors worked to get the baby breathing again and eventually it came back as well.

    If there ever was a Christmas miracle this is one!

    The bond between mother and child is the strongest bond, a most miraculous and magical thing. If only every woman who births a child understood this. It is truly a gift.

    Be happy little one and mama Tracy!
