Woman survives 45 minutes without heartbeat after amniotic embolism after birth

Ruby Graupera-Cassimiro had gone 45 minutes without a pulse when doctors called her family into the operating room and told them there was nothing more they could do. A team of more than a dozen doctors and nurses had been working desperately to revive her. But now they'd lost hope that the 40-year-old Deerfield Beach woman, whose heart had given out without warning after a routine C-section at Boca Raton Regional Hospital, was going to make it. Devastated, Graupera-Cassimiro's husband, mother and sister said goodbye to her just hours after they'd welcomed a healthy baby girl. The medical team stopped all lifesaving procedures. They watched a heart monitor, preparing to record a time of death. And then the impossible happened: A blip of a heartbeat showed up. Then another, and another. Within a few hours, Graupera-Cassimiro, a human resources manager and now a mother of two, was tugging at the breathing tube on her face and scribbling notes to family.
Amazing. Article also goes to describe her experience with the other side. What says the OT?

I'm not going to pay to read the article, so how about you copy and paste it and post it here?

So over under on the amount of serious brain damage due to not having a heart beat for 45 minutes? I feel like she would be a potato after that long.

no heartbeat for 45 minutes means no blood to the brain for 45 minutes which is a serious problem.....
this article seems a little fishy
