A premature baby boy, born the size of a Sharpie marker pen, beat 10 percent survival odds after his family fought to keep him alive.
Mom Amanda Green of Bowmanville, Ontario, gave birth to baby Jaxen on Feb. 5 at 23 weeks and one day. He was “a week past viability,” Amanda explained to CTV News, so she and her partner were able to sign papers allowing medics to resuscitate their baby.
