All life should be respected from beginning to natural end, even when doctors think it’s all over for a patient, because the Author of Life can choose to intervene at any point -  which is exactly what happened last week when a 13 year-old “brain dead” boy suddenly regained consciousness.

FoxNews.com is reporting on the case of Trenton McKinley, 13, of Mobile, Alabama,  who suffered multiple head fractures and severe brain injury when a utility trailer he was riding in flipped over.

“I hit the concrete and the trailer landed on top of my head. After that, I don't remember anything," Trenton told Fox 10.

His mother, Jennifer Reindl, said “He was dead a total of 15 minutes. When he came back, they said he would never be normal again. They told me the oxidation problems would be so bad to his brain, that he would be a vegetable if he even made it.”

The prognosis was so dire that his mother finally agreed to sign the papers that would allow Trenton’s organs to be donated to five children who were in need of transplants.

"Five kids needed organs that matched him,” Reindl said. “It was unfair to keep bringing him back, because it was just damaging his organs even more."

But God wasn’t finished with Trenton's life story.

On the day before the doctors were planning to remove his life support, Trenton began to show signs of life. It began with brain activity and movement and ended with him breathing on his own and then waking up to speak in full sentences.

Doctors were astonished, but Trenton wasn’t. He’s convinced that he went to heaven before he came back to life.

"I was in an open field walking straight,” Trenton recalled. "There's no other explanation but God. There's no other way. Even doctors said it."

Trenton is not out-of-the-woods yet, however, and still suffers from nerve pain and seizures.

His mother, who set up a fundraising page on Facebook to help pay for the medical bills, is giving all the glory to God and is thankful for every second she gets to spend with the little boy doctors said would not survive.

“Please pray for my baby,” she wrote on April 27 just before Trenton was wheeled into the operating room once again. “He is such a little soldier and he can get through this with God's hands on him....my faith in God is big...he is with us i know...pray pray pray!”

She has already raised $11,000, far more than the $4,000 she asked for. Click here to help!
