A father has revealed how his beautiful baby son died during labour when he was born at just 27 weeks - but was then found breathing on his own in his coffin hours later.
Richard Jurado, from Bolivia, explained how he said good bye to his son - named Dhilan Daren - and he was placed into his coffin.
But as they were spending their last few minutes with their son, the shell-shocked mother and father noticed that their precious son was still breathing.

“The baby was born with no vital signs, so it was a foetal death. The doctors checked again and the situation was the same,” said hospital director, Federico Urquizo.
“The only thing we can say to everyone is that it was a miracle.”
But Bolivian authorities are investigating the case as medical negligence.
According to local media, a hospital committee decided that the baby was born dead but somehow came back to life two hours later.
Little Dhilan Daren, is currently being cared for in the hospital's intensive care unit.
The baby's father showed the signed death certificate to reporters and has now requested a birth certificate.
He met with the prosecutor in charge of the case, Lorgio Viveros, who will interview the medical team in the coming days.
