Baby brought back to life after his heart fails

This baby was brought back to life after his heart stopped. Lincoln Seay was born with his heart on the wrong wide of his body causing serious health complications. Four days after he went into cardiac arrest, a heart transplant became available for him. For the moment Doctors were able to stabilize Lincoln's vitals.

But as they were prepping him for heart transplant surgery his heart stopped and he died.

Doctors quickly opened his chest and started manually pressing his heart till they connected him to the heart bypass machine.

Dr. Michael McMullen told ABC News that that process usually takes 2 hours but they did it in 12 minutes.

Hours later, Lincoln was given a new heart and he woke up.

 

The little tot's dad, Rob Seay said:

He woke up with so much energy. He was grabbing at my face and pulling my beard . He didn't know what he wanted to do with his body.

The family hopes Lilcoln will be able to go home within a few months

 The family has set up a crowdfunding page to help offset the baby's medical bills.
