Upon waking after nearly dying during childbirth, I saw how important that decision was in my life, and that of my child.

On July 28, 2010, I delivered my child in the maternity ward of one hospital, only to wake up days later in the ICU of another hospital across town, not knowing how I had even gotten there. Shocked, I sat and listened as my family told what had taken place during the past three days. I tried to recall them. But I had no memory. I drew a blank.

I was clinically dead, and my baby was still inside of my body.

Doctors signaled code blow Code Blue and a team of staff whisked me to the operating room. My husband later told me that he prayed in these words: "God, I know that this is more than I can handle, which means You have a plan and a purpose in this, and I trust You; but please, if it is Your will, allow me to hold my wife again."
