minus-squareBlueÆther@no.lastname.nzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 months agoMy wife was rushed by ambulance to the area hospital with post-partum complication at about 48 hours. Then seven days latter our new born was rushed off to the same hospital with suspected meningitis - she spent nearly 2 week there starting in NICU. Both wife and daughter survived, although both were pretty hard to go through at the time. If either of them ended for the worse it would have been crushing - if both of these had ended badly I suspect it would be fairly well up there
