With doctors predicting Lerman, 69, wouldn't recover, they bought a tombstone, started planning her funeral, and prepared to say an emotional goodbye.

Lerman's kids were so convinced their mother's life was coming to an end they also gave away her possessions and let go of her Florida apartment.

"We… donated everything in her apartment for others in need at her senior community," daughter Jennifer Miele said on a GoFundMe page. "We had already went to the funeral home and was planning her funeral, with the little bit she had left."

Then, on Oct. 29 — right before they planned to remove Lerman from life support — something shocking unfolded at Maine Medical Center in Portland, Maine: she woke up.

Lerman's son, Andrew, told CNN about the unbelievable phone call he received right before he expected his mom to die.

"[The doctor's] like, 'Well, I need you to come here right away.' I was like, 'OK, what's wrong?'" Lerman recalled. "He goes, 'Well, there's nothing wrong. Your mother woke up.'"

One of the most remarkable parts of the story is what Andrew told CNN about his mother's faith and the impact the medical marvel is having on his own perspective.

He said his mom is "very religious" and her church and friends have been praying for her.
