After Swapna had given birth to two daughters, both by cesarean section, she and her husband decided to try again for a son. But in her fifth month, she began bleeding uncontrollably. Swapna was rushed to Broadwell Christian Hospital (BCH), unconscious and with no recordable blood pressure or pulse.

The BCH team jumped into action, intubating Swapna, and delivering her tiny baby who was too small to survive. But blood was still pouring out of her, and the doctors gave her several transfusions. Next they performed an emergency cesarean hysterectomy. The doctors continued to closely monitor her condition, and slowly the bleeding ceased. Eventually, Swapna was able to be taken off the ventilator and she grew stronger. Everyone was thrilled when Swapna was released to go home to her husband and two beautiful daughters. Without the quick action of the BCH medical team, Swapna would not have had this second chance at life.
