California toddler, 'dead,' comes back

ANAHEIM, Calif., Nov. 8 (UPI) -- Doctors Saturday were monitoring a California toddler who began breathing 40 minutes after she was officially pronounced dead.

A detective was in a room with 20-month-old drowning victim Mackayala Jespersen at Anaheim Memorial Hospital Friday when he noticed the girl trying to breathe, The Los Angeles Times reported Saturday. The detective summoned doctors, who then resuscitated her.

Mackayala's mother left the girl and her twin sister unattended for about 10 minutes Friday while she cared for their 4-year-old sister, police said.

When she returned to the living room the sliding screen door was ajar and Mackayala was missing.

The mother found her baby floating face down in the backyard pool. Officers who arrived within two minutes said the little girl was not breathing. Despite efforts of emergency room staff, doctors finally declared her dead.

It was nearly two hours after her mother discovered her in the pool before she took her next breath, officials said.

A veritable miracle that baby's surviving, but what does it tell you about the caregivers?

The local Med Center here contracts the ER staff, so a dissatisfied patient attempted to sue the hospital to learn liability rests with the ER staffing Co., not the Med Center.

If the patient is the fiducary, eliminating more than a few middle men, (who might also be adding to the cost of care) the insurers might serve, instead of control the healthcare process.

Too serious. Lighten up.

The nurse said to the doctor "Your patient just expired at the door as she was leaving!"

"Well, please go out and turn her around!" said the doctor.
