Eight Months Old Baby Rushed To Hospital From Her Own Funeral After Family Noticed She Was Moving In Coffin

An eight-month-old girl was rushed to hospital from her own funeral after horrified mourners noticed she was moving her hand in her coffin.

Kiara Crislayne de Moura dos Santos was admitted to Faustino Riscarolli Hospital in Correia Pinto, in the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina, in the early hours of October 19.

Doctors ultimately determined the girl was not breathing and had no heartbeat and declared her dead shortly after she was admitted.

Two hours after Kiara was pronounced dead, funeral director Aureo Arruda Ramos collected her body from the morgue and with Kiara’s parents began making preparations for Kiara’s funeral later that day.

The funeral got underway at 7pm that same day, but the service was brought to an abrupt halt when one attendee noticed the baby’s hand was moving in her open coffin.

When one mourner rushed to the coffin and touched the baby’s hand, her fingers reportedly curled, prompting a mad dash to get the infant vital aid in the hopes she could be saved.

Firefighter paramedics descended on the funeral service and found the baby girl still had a pulse.

They also found no trace of rigor mortis which usually stiffens a body between six and eight hours after death.

Her oxygen saturation level was 84 per cent – well below the threshold of 90 per cent which is considered a serious health concern – and the paramedics rushed her back to hospital
