It’s really a miracle!

Nina Whear, a 38-year-old British woman, has beaten the odds to recover from heart operation conducted minutes after giving birth to two healthy twins, Evie and Alfie.

Nina was diagnosed with a potentially disastrous heart problem at nine months pregnant, and a critical caesarean delivery was carried out.

The doctors at Papworth Hospital, Cambridge, have given just a 7% chance of her survival.

Even her hubby Andy Whear was told to say last "bye-bye" to Nina.

But Nina defied the betting odds, and gave birth to healthy babies by caesarean delivery, after that, she had a successful heart surgery and went on to make a complete recovery.

She said, “I remember them bringing Andy through and we're left alone to say our goodbyes. I was very calm because I thought if I was going to die I wanted to do it calmly.”

“When I woke up after the operation I couldn't talk, but I tried to signal to the nurse to say that I couldn't believe I was alive, although I don't think she understood what I meant.”

“I was so shocked that I didn't even think about the fact I had just had twins, I was just amazed to be alive,” she also said.

Mrs. Whear suffered the massive heart attack at her home in Lamas, near Norwich during the early hours of 6 January, and given oxygen by the ambulance technicians who initially treated her.

Then she was taken to the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital and then to Papworth Hospital, in Cambridge, where her twins were born and the surgery was performed.
