“Doctor!” she called firmly.
The medical team returned within seconds.
Monitors were quickly reconnected.
Silence filled the room as everyone waited.
Then came a sound no one expected.
A faint heartbeat.
Weak.
Irregular.
But unmistakably present.
The room exploded into action once again.
Doctors resumed life-saving measures, this time encouraged by the unexpected signs of life. Oxygen support was reintroduced, medications were prepared, and specialists from the neonatal intensive care unit rushed in.
