Ice skater dies then gives birth

Story

A champion ice skater in the UK has given birth two days after suffering a fatal brain haemorrhage.

Jayne Soliman, 41, was declared brain-dead but kept alive long enough for doctors to deliver her daughter Aya Jayne by caesarian section.

Ms Soliman, an ice skater who had competed on an international level, was earlier pumped full of steroids to allow the baby’s lungs to develop.

A sad story, but a medical marvel at the same time.

Holy crap, that's freaky
