Miraculous 'Faith' Baby Born to Brain-Dead Mother

Faith
Faith was born via C-section at 35 weeks after her mother spent most of her pregnancy in a coma.

Her name is Faith. And that's the perfect name for a baby who was born to a mother—Jessie Ayagalria—who was brain-dead for most of the pregnancy.

"I was brought in after [Faith] was delivered and it was an amazing feeling to hold her," Shirley Jerry, Ayagalria's mother, told KTVA.com. "It was a miracle."

Jessie Ayagalria, a 29-year-old woman, had a seizure and a heart attack in January, according to Fox23.com. Although she was clinically dead, her family decided to preserve the life of her pre-born child by keeping her on life support for the duration of the pregnancy.

Faith was born via C-section in the 35th week of Ayagalria's term. The family is grieving the loss of Ayagalria but celebrating the life she left behind.

"It's like going through a roller coaster," Catherine Greydanus, Ayagalria's cousin, told the station. "You have to deal what's going on with Jessie, but then you see Faith and can't help but smile that something positive has come about this."
