Doctors reattached toddler’s decapitated head after horrific accident

Jackson's head was reattached after a 6-hour surgery

Jackson Taylor, 1-year-old, made a miracle recovery after his HEAD was internally decapitated in a car crash . Jackson was with his mom and sister when they collided head on with another vehicle at 70mph. The force from the collision was so intense that Jackson's head pulled apart from his neck in an internal decapitation, according to spinal surgeon Dr Geoff Askin.
In a six-hour surgery Dr Askin and his team were able to reattach the boy's vetebrae using wire and a piece of Jackson's rib in what has been termed an incredible feat.

Jackson is expected to make a full recovery

"A lot of children wouldn't survive that injury in the first place, and if they did and they were resuscitated then they may never move or breathe again." said Dr Askin.
Jackson now wears what his family calls a "halo" to keep his body stable, which will be removed in eight weeks.
After that, he will be able to live a normal and healthy life.
