In Pagadian City, a couple just experienced the biggest miracle and heartbreak of their lives within a span of 12 hours.
According to a report by GMA's Balitanghali, the mother gave birth on March 18 at 11:00 PM. But having only been in the womb for six months, the child had a very slim chance of surviving.
A few hours later, hospital staff told them the last thing any expecting parent would want to hear - their baby was dead.
It was hard to swallow, but they had to accept the truth. And so, the father went on to prepare for his baby's burial. He wrapped their child's lifeless body in cloth and packaging tape and said their goodbyes.
But just as he was about to place the body in a box, the most unexpected thing happened.
The baby reportedly started showing signs of life.
In hopes of saving their baby, the parents rushed to the nearest hospital. The frantic couple relayed the incident but the nurses told them that the baby could never have survived.
According to Doctor Rovel Blancia, resident pediatrician at Zamboanga del Sur Medical Center, the baby indeed had a heartbeat.
However, it was too weak to sustain life and the child won't survive even with intervention.
Around noon the following day, their baby died a second time.
