Stephanie Johnson will never forget the day she gave birth to her daughter Ellie because it’s the same day she almost lost her own life.
Stephanie hemorrhaged during an emergency C-section, which meant she needed blood immediately. In a span of a few hours, she went from bringing a new life into the world to fighting for her own.
“They put me out,” she said. “So where as my family was waiting with the chaplain and seeing the coolers of blood running down the hallway and had an experience for about 4 hours, not knowing what was going to happen.”
One of those family members is Brent Johnson, Stephanie’s husband.
“They sent in a chaplain, which isn’t something you really feel comfortable with. Then you know something is serious. That’s when it really hit home that something might be… a bad ending to this,” he said.
