Naomi & Chris Sheridan are a healthy couple in their 30's raising their 2 littles Shane 5yrs and Shine 3yrs. They were so excited to find good news despite the toll this year has taken on us all because of Covid. They were expecting what they said would be their final gift, a baby boy due at Thanksgiving 2020. In Naomi's first trimester (8wks) her first ultrasound was irregular and she was sent to see a specialist. She was diagnosed with a subchrionic hemorrhage (2 golf ball size blood clot in her uterus). At this time only her family and very close friends were told as she returned home and began seeing specialist Dr's weekly and despite the scariness of it all and the beginning of the outrageous medical bills in April 2020, they vowed to be positive, strong and believe that it would all work out somehow. At 2am Tues morning, August 11th at 25wks pregnant, Naomi frantically awoke lying in blood and as she stood up and woke up Chris while getting to the bathroom, blood began to pour out. As they raced to the hospital they held out hope that they had not lost their baby boy but with the amount of blood rapidly coming out, it seemed doubtful. The local hospital quickly acted as though the 1lb baby needed delivered from this nightmare and immediately shot Naomi with steroids for babies lungs and magnesium for babies brain as a 25wk old 1lb baby would need help rapidly developing before an emergency c-section, as what seemed the only way to possibly keep him alive. The staff prepared to get baby out and Naomi began losing consciousness due to massive blood loss and the Dr. told Chris they could perform the surgery and possibly save the 1lb baby and at best it would be months and months in the NICU if the baby even survived but going that route would put Naomi's life in sever danger as she had lost too much blood too fast in the last hour and needed an immediate blood transfusion of trauma blood to keep her alive. The only way to have a real chance at saving both would be to rush them 45miles to a larger hospital with a NICU for baby and suited for the care Naomi's life was also in need of. Naomi received the transfusion getting her back to stable and after arriving at hospital and nurses hooking her and baby to vital scanners all while slowing down the massive bleeding, it was determined that Naomi's placenta had torn but baby is currently alive and breathing. During the last 4 days since being admitted Naomi has had 2 more similar episodes to the original and rushed to emergency c-section labor/delivery fortunatly to have it slow back down to a slow constant bleed. She now is living bed stricken hooked up to machines under constant monitoring in a small room in the high risk pregnancy wing. The best case scenario right now for baby which currently weighs less than 2lbs is to stay inside mama for as long as possible. Please keep your positive vibes, thoughts, prayers with Naomi. Her body will continue to bleed which has most recently caused premature "uterus irritability" and may cause other major blood loss damage that cannot be operated on until this situation is over. There is high risk many other problems may follow with her major organs but she wants to allow her body to break down and push her life to it's limit in order to get as close to full term for her child. In this scenario Naomi & baby would at the earliest possibly make it home just in time for the holidays. On top of the specialists bills accruing since April and the multiple emergency blood transfusions already received, 3 months of 24hr a day hospital care for her and baby will unfortunately break them financially. Chris is not only burdened with his wife & baby's daily survival but also will be left alone to juggle taking care of Shane & Shine, dropping them off with friends/family in order to commute back and forth 1hr each way as he is the only allowed visitor (due to Covid) to his precious wife, homeschooling the kids alone, handling everyday bills and all the duties at home/in life that his wife normally took care of as well as attempting to find time to work.
