Send some healing thoughts? October 2, 2008

Posted by spacemom in : Weblogs , trackback

A friend of mine is overly generous. She has triplets. She has also done two surrogate pregnancies for a couple who could not carry their own child.

Last week, my friend was in a car accident at 36weeks with the second surrogate pregnancy. She started to bleed. They confirmed yesterday that the baby could be delivered (his lungs were matured). They did the C-section.

During the C-section, they discovered she had Placenta Percreta,  the placenta had grown through her uterine wall and was attaching itself to her bladder. They had to perform a hysterectomy and at one point, she went into cardiac arrest and needed CPR.

She is resting now and the mother of the little boy is with her. They are both enjoying the baby.

But I am requesting some healing thoughts. She is exhausted and needs to heal. This was a pretty bad situation and she went through this to allow another person to have a child. What an amazing person.

Thanks in advance!

What a special person she must be. I’ll send extra-strength healing thoughts, a dear friend of mine had placenta percreta, it’s definitely no picnic.
