Thank you so much to everyone who has sent their love and prayers to Carla and our family. The number of people who have reached out saying “my wife and child almost died too” is truly staggering… Thank you for sharing your stories. The fact that these terrifying near-death experiences are so shockingly common (especially during pregnancy/childbirth) is a great reminder of how absolutely brutal and deadly most of human history has been… We are so fortunate to live at a time when modern medicine can save people who would have been guaranteed to die for 99.999% of human history… beyond grateful to the doctors, nurses, and paramedics who saved her life and the life of the baby in her belly. Carla is still in a lot of pain but she’s resting a bit now, thank god.
