'Prayer saved my baby.' (after more than an hour of not breathing, newborn Logan Carroll's body revived him)(Real Life)

Article Abstract:

The baby's heart had ceased to beat before he left the womb. Doctors worked frantically over him, but it would not start. His mother and other family members clung to him for over an hour, then just before giving him for an autopsy, he moved. His mother credits her prayers for the miracle.
