Woman Wakes from Coma to Discover She's Pregnant
16 Feb
Summary
- A woman discovered pregnancy after waking from a coma.
- She was in a coma due to a drink spiking incident.
- Her daughter was born prematurely and faced NICU challenges.
A woman's life was irrevocably altered after her 18th birthday celebration ended with a drink-spiking incident. She experienced cardiac arrest and seizures, necessitating her placement in an induced coma. Weeks later, she awoke with no memory of the events but a profound revelation: she was pregnant.
Her daughter, Lucia, was born prematurely at 34 weeks via emergency C-section after her mother's waters broke at 25 weeks. Lucia spent a month in neonatal intensive care. Shortly after Lucia's discharge, the mother suffered a severe chest infection that led to an asthma attack, requiring hospitalization and intensive care.
Despite facing life-threatening complications and fearing she might not survive, she recovered. Now, mother and daughter are starting their lives together in their first home. The experience has underscored the severe consequences of drink spiking, with the mother expressing profound gratitude for the support she received.
