Delivered her 26 years ago and her good looking boy about 7 years ago! What a blessing

07/15/2025

I dont know who needs to read this message but here goes —

Several years ago, this young lady who had an unremarkable prenatal care, presented in active labor and had an uncomplicated vaginal delivery of a healthy baby boy. Several hours later, she suffered a very surprising and sudden complete cardiovascular collapse and was coded close to 30 minutes without any sign of life. She was completely unresponsive that we were very close to calling off the emergency resuscitation. In the midst of helping to care for her, I was at the same time with such a heavy heart had so many thoughts going through my mind one of which was dealing with the reality that I am going to have to tell her husband after having had one of the most enjoyable moment in his life after the birth of his son… that his wife has passed away. I remember just hoping and praying for a miracle. And literally within the next minute out of nowhere , i thought of a condition that many OBGYN’s never encounter in their entire career 10x over … a liver rupture arising from severe preeclampsia — so rare that it only occurs in 1 out of 40k deliveries to 1 out of 250k deliveries. I requested for mechanical cardiac chest compressions to temporarily stop to perform an ultrasound that is not part of a normal cardiac resuscitation protocol — and discovered that she was hemorrhaging significantly intra abdominally. We initiated massive blood transfusions and within minutes, her eyes opened and i immediately called Erlanger for airtransfer and a general surgeon colleague and myself rushed her to emergency surgery to stop her bleeding where we did confirm a ruptured liver.

She survived this near tragic event with complete recovery and we just had recently delivered her second baby a few months ago without complication. I never had the opportunity to tell her exactly what had happened to her after her Erlanger hospitalization until recently and when i did , she was overcome with emotions and hugged and thanked me because she never knew she was this close to death. What happened that day is without a doubt DIVINE intervention and she wanted me to tell her miraculous story of survival to glorify HIS holy name. This is a reminder to me the immense responsibility and trust that patients put on me but also is a testament to the power of prayer, the resilience of the human spirit and in the most challenging times — he is right there with you every step of the way !!

I received permission from my patient to share her story, just another powerful testament to the awe-inspiring greatness of our God.

She is a young lady who truly embodies the meaning of a second chance—a miracle among miracles. Just three days ago, I delivered her second child. Yet, about five years ago, her journey to be a mom took a dramatic turn. After an uncomplicated vaginal delivery of a healthy baby boy, she developed one of the most severe forms of preeclampsia, known as HELLP syndrome.

Despite being young and very healthy, she suffered respiratory and cardiac arrest mere hours after giving birth. She fell into a coma for more than 25 minutes, and despite all medical interventions remained completely unresponsive that we were within seconds of calling off the code. But by the boundless grace of God, a rare diagnosis came to mind. This is one I had never witnessed in my over 30 years of experience as an OBGYN despite thousands of deliveries except having read about it in textbooks and seen it once decades ago as a medical student —was the possibility of a liver rupture. This complication of HELLP syndrome can be so catastrophic that maternal mortality rates reportedly can range from 15 to 85 percent.

We paused the code for a minute or so, allowing me to perform an abdominal ultrasound where i was able to confirm the liver rupture and the presence of significant intraabdominal bleeding. We immediately performed emergency surgery to pack her liver and stop the bleeding which provided us the opportunity to life-flight her to Erlanger. Miraculously, she survived with no neurological deficits or any other residual complications. Only by the mercy and love of God is this young lady even alive today. I am profoundly blessed to have been granted the privilege of caring for her and so appreciative of the wonderful and talented health care professionals we have at CRMC that was there that day collectively to save this young ladies life. When i look at her, I can’t help but think that without God’s divine intervention, her son would have been left without a mother and her husband without a wife. What a tragedy this would have been.

“I am so Thankful” is such an understatement when I see their little family now when this could have been the most unfortunate devastating outcome of my career. I dont know whether or not at this stage of my life, I could have survived this tragedy personally and still continue to practice the career that i have dedicated my life to. This is just yet another testament to the many incredible sacrifices women endure so that we can all build our families.

She has a wonderful small little family now and despite her quiet unassuming demeanor, she has hugged me and shed some tears with me during this past few months that I appreciate and hold so dear in my heart. she will never fully understand how this life experience with her just continues to draw me closer to HIM! All praise be to God, who works wonders beyond my earthly understanding!

Bingo and Musical Chairs — we just gave away a million dollars . Lol
The year is about to end— and I don’t know how else I can express my gratitude to the people that I battle with everyday that protect me and take care of all the patients they encounter on a daily basis. The process of birthing babies is not easy and I expect so so so much from everyone and more. Everyone from labor and delivery to postpartum and nursery are always trying to do better for the benefit of the patients and babies in our community. Obviously can’t give gifts to everyone but a sincere thank you and a Merry Christmas from my wife and children to all on the Eastside …
