This kind of shit makes me really sick.


How is this possible? As far as I'm aware the brain controls the autonomic nervous system,which covers everything from the heart to digestion to the endocrine system. It seems to me that it's physically impossible for a fetus to survive to term without a functioning brain.

It rarely happens & I don't think I'd call it a miracle.
