Cooper said he didn't think that was significant until he left the room and started walking down the hallway, only to hear shouts from a family member still at Connolly's side. "He said Mike was responding," Cooper said. "I didn't believe him, but I went back in there, and it was true. You would say his name, and he would turn his head toward you. It was a miracle."
