Same here. I nearly lost my wife and daughter during childbirth due to pre-eclampsia. Maxed out on three blood pressure medicines and still hitting 190-110, and then dropping not a minute later to 90-30, and the bpm for my daughter dropped below 30. The room filled with doctors who ripped everything out of the walls and took them both out, without saying a word to me about what was happening. All I could do was sit down and focus on breathing, because I knew if I moved I'd do something I'd regret, even though it was no one's fault.

Daughter was born a month premature. Her lungs were weak and she suffered from high levels of bilirubin. She nearly died the day after she was brought home. Wife did CPR on her and got her back. Took her to hospital where she was placed in a tank with ultraviolet light (phototherapy) in an effort to get her liver to start working. I forget how many days we stayed in the hospital. I don't try to think of those days. Today my baby girl is a D&D playing college student.

The infant mortality statistics reported by countries is according to their own standards. Those standards vary greatly from nation to nation. If the world had to report using U.S.A's standards, We would be near the lowest in terms of mortality. China for example doesn't not consider the following circumstances as live births or count in their census data. 1. Death within 24 hours of birth 2. Miscarriages 3. Abortions (forced or otherwise).
@StormTheSquidАй бұрын
@@popecj29people have this weird perception that America is a developed nation and thus can't have the problems of starvation, infant mortality, etc. but that's a facade. We'd probably still be awful even if everyone used the same standards.

You have my respect for bringing this up. Not a downer at all, but an uplifting reminder that we should be thankful for life and health. Neither are to be taken for granted and will not stay around forever.

As a father of a child who was born at 32 weeks and living at a “family house” while she was in NICU for a month and a half, I was hanging on your every word hoping you would not tell us what is all too common in NICU stories. I am so happy for your sister and her partner to “get lucky” as they did. Thank you for sharing. I hope your donation totals are legendary!

Great message. You are right. We should talk about it more. We should all advocate for affordable and accessible healthcare. Being a children's hospital after my youngest daughter's birth and meeting other families while there, changed my life and understanding of the world on a visceral level. She's doing great now, thirteen years later. My wife and I have been raising money and advocating for better health care options ever since. Thanks for sharing your story. I wish you and your sister and her family and your new nephews all the best.

Will continue praying for improved health for the twins and comfort for the parents. You're a good man, thank you for using the platform you have to help those around you.
