My nephew, Andrew, and his wife decided to have a home birth and after 40 hours of labor Emi still persevered to continue her plans of having her baby girl at home. Emi and Andrew had a beautiful baby girl, Eleana Rose. Two hours after delivery Emi passed out. On the way to the hospital her heart stopped. Seven hours later Andrew was able to see Emi for the first time since she left the hospital. Apparently, she suffered from a heart attack and then she started hemorraging, bleading from every morphis of her body. Do to the extent of damage they had to put Emi on a ventilator and dialysis.
In the mean time, family had the baby checked out only to find that Eleana had a heart problem. They immediately flew her to Kansas City to Children's Mercy where two Great Aunts would spend the next three days with her until Emi, mom, was pronounced brain dead and they disconnect life support, which allowed dad to come to Kansas City.
The doctors at Children's Mercy discovered that Eleana has a valve issue with her heart which creates a problem with the flow of the bloood, the blood has a back flow issue when transferring to right ventricle to the left ventricle. Through good treatment, medicine and care the doctors do not think she will need surgery at this time, but eventually when she is stronger and more active she will need a couple of surgeries on her heart.
This family does have insurance. Andrew has worked at Walmart for 12 years and is the manager of the automotive department, but they have copays and Andrew is going to need to provide for these two kids, both under two. He has a long rode ahead of him and the community would like to do something for them. I think this would be fun and get people out to support this family in need.
