Dead Premature Baby Comes Back To Life In Johnson’s Baby Advert
A new Johnson’s advert featuring a story of a dead premature baby that came back to life has gone viral. Published on YouTube on Feb. 4, the four-minute video titled “Loving Touch & Mom's Intuition: Kate Ogg & Jamie’s Story” has been viewed 9.5 million times.
Kate and David Ogg had been trying for a baby for three years so they were delighted by the news that they were having twins. But on March 25, 2010, the first-time parents were heartbroken by the news that one of their new-born twins had stopped breathing and was dying.
The twins were just 26 weeks old and were born just two minutes apart. The mother thought it was the only time they could spend with the baby they named Jamie so she asked to hold her lifeless son. She also asked her husband to join them in the hospital bed.
While Jamie’s parents were cradling him, his mother talked to him about his twin sister Emily, his extended family and their future plans for him. The parents were surprised when Jamie started to move but the midwives still told them they really had to say goodbye to the tiny boy.
Still, Jamie’s mother never let go of him. She explained in the Johnson’s advert, “His skin was against mine for the entire time. And then he opened his eyes and he grabbed David’s finger and he held on.” Watch “Loving Touch & Mom's Intuition: Kate Ogg & Jamie’s Story” here:
