I know that doctors love to use the excuse - and I suppose they're right - that "medicine is not an exact science" (although I think we should do some work so that it finally is). Still, I never fully get how things like this happen.

"It's called divine intervention, I think."

I wouldn't celebrate just yet considering the fact that this kid is probably going to be screwed up if he ultimately survives. Whether that's better than death I suppose is a judgment call. Personally, I'd probably be giving god the finger for intervening. I'd rather be dead than be any more brain damaged than I already am.
