Dead Toddler Reanimates at Own Wake to Ask for Some Water, Then Re-Dies...

"Brazilian media agencies are reporting on a bizarre story out of the northern city of Belém, where a toddler pronounced dead suddenly reanimated shortly before his funeral, and asked his father for a drink of water. Two-year-old Kelvin Santos was declared officially dead after succumbing to pneumonia at Aberlardo Santos Hospital.

thnx! i did a search came up with nothing. mods please delete or close. thank u.

glad you titled it like that.....
you mean he died again?.....

I'm not a doctor, well not "officially" lol, but I have read that it is possible for a person to live yet have an undetectable heartbeat and extremely slow, shallow, undetectable breathing. I don't know if this is true, but this could explain what happened if this story is true. OR their doctor may not have been "official" either...

I would have been more surprised if he had already been embalmed...Ya know, organs removed and whatnot. That would have been impressive. But the main thing on my mind is why, if he was in the state I described above, did he regain consciousness to begin with? Only to die "again." Doesn't make sense really. If he was barely hanging on internally, it makes more sense for him to remain in the same state until death. But I suppose weird things do happen. This could be made up as well, but it definitely is not impossible by any stretch of the imagination.
