In a separate post, Garma said “Baby Angel” died shortly after being born and her parents brought her to the church for the requiem mass. It was there that the baby, who was placed in a tiny coffin, started breathing again that the family decided to have her immediately baptized.

Garma said after the baptism, the family rushed her to the hospital. But she said, the baby died there. | LGC
