Parents kissed their daughter goodbye in the hospital: 30 minutes later a deafening scream was heard from her room

Whether you believe in miracles or not, the story of baby Bella from England is definitely a wonderful example.
At just 14 months old Bella became very ill and after several tests she was obliged to have a respirator and the doctors told her family to say goodbye to their precious baby. But just when they thought there was no hope left, Bella did something amazing.
Lee and Francesca Moore-Williams were a happy couple after Francesca gave birth to their second daughter, Bella. They felt their family was just perfect.
But at 14 months old Bella began to lose lumps of hair from her head. Doctors suspected it was asthma and she was given an inhaler. Three months later Bella's condition deteriorated while the family was on holiday in Spain. They had to return to England for further tests.
Critical condition
The doctors told the family that Bella suffers from mitochondrial disease which kills cells in her body and causes organs failure. The disease was in an advanced stage and had no cure. Bella's condition was so critical that she was connected to the respiration tube.
The couple were told there was a similar case at the hospital several years ago where the boy was biotinidase deficient, and they started injecting him with biotin which is actually vitamin H. Only one in 60,000 babies suffer from it.
They tried to disconnect Bella from the respirator, but she was unable to breathe on her own and on July 21, 2015 the family was told to say goodbye for the last time from Bella. The whole family gathered at the hospital, posed for the last time with their 5-year-old son, Bobby, and kissed her and said goodbye. But just 30 minutes later the unbelievable happened.
"I felt her hand fall and she went down but then she started grabbing my finger. She started moving on her own and then her machine started going crazy", father Lee told the Telegraph.
A miracle in the hospital
Bella suddenly started screaming and moving, the doctors told them that the oxygen levels were back to normal. The parents were in shock.
"The doctors changed their way of thinking and did everything to save her. In those 20 minutes I sat next to her and realized she was not ready to go yet", father Lee added.
Today Bella is a healthy and happy girl who receives pills every day to treat her illness.
The parents enjoy their second chance and compare Bella's recovery to winning the lottery.
"When she says 'Mom' my heart melts", mother Francesca said.
