Well reading here http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-12634535 which has more info, it would seem to be a miracle of modern healthcare techniques. The baby isn’t showing any signs of brain damage and looks healthy and happy, as does her mother :D

Whenever people say things like “maybe they should have left it alone” or “nature should have been allowed to take its course” I think of all the people I know who have full rich lives because the doctors didn’t let nature take its course and let them die.

i agree both mother and child look well and i hope and prey things continue to be ok.

i have lost a child and i know the heartbreak that comes with it

just wonder sometimes if the doctors are pushing the boundries which dont get me wrong can be a good thing like in this case,
or if sometimes they can cause more problems and effect ppls quality of life

is this treatment made available to all still births?
should this treatment be offered to all stillbirths?
when or if should doctors step in ?
i guess as medical breakthroughs happen we will have more mirical storys

[AngelBabe]

not looking for any thoughts in particular jen
i was just wondering if ppl thought it was a miracle
or if thought docs should have left alone
im unsure how i feel to be honest
i was just interested in what others thought

ON TENTERHOOKS…..After it was woven wool was pounded in a mixture of clay and water to clean and thicken it. This was called fulling. Afterwards the wool was stretched on a frame called a tenter to dry. It was hung on tenterhooks. So if you were very tense, like stretched cloth, you were on tenterhooks.

Chalk and cheese (different as) – two entirely opposed articles or people
To understand this comparison you need to think of a white, young cheese rather than a mature yellow one, and freshly gathered chalk, rather than something prepared for the blackboard. They can look very similar, but their taste and value are very different. The image is an old one. In his Confessio Amantis of about 1383 John Gower criticises the Church for teaching one thing and doing another, saying, ‘Lo, how they feignen chalk for cheese’ (‘pretend that chalk is cheese’), and again, several thousand lines on in this lengthy book, he shows us the origin of the expression when he writes of the greedy man who does not care what he sells as long as he makes money: ‘And thus fulofte chalk for cheese He changeth with ful little cost’ (‘Thus he frequently swaps chalk for cheese at very little cost’). This sense of comparative worth has of course now been lost, but the phrase lives on, no doubt kept in use by English speakers’ love of alliteration.

Welsh rarebit

Ingredients

25g/1oz butter
25g/1oz flour
150ml/5fl oz milk
175g/6oz cheddar cheese, grated
150ml/5fl oz brown ale
1 tsp English mustard
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper
2 egg yolks
slices of toast

Preparation method

Make a roux with the butter and flour, and leave to cool.
Bring the milk to the boil, then whisk it into the roux. Bring to the boil once again, whisking to ensure that it does not burn and also that the sauce is free of lumps.
Add the cheese, beat in and remove from the heat.
Reduce the ale, English mustard and Worcestershire sauce. When thick, add this mixture to the cheese sauce. Season well with salt and pepper and beat in the egg yolks.
Spoon on to the slices of toast and grill until bubbling. Serve with extra Worcestershire sauce handed separately.
