I have been a member of message board for mommies & mommies-to-be for quite a while now. A few days ago, we recieved heartbreaking news about one of our members from a local board in California. She suffered an amniotic embolism and died giving birth to her baby girl. You can read a bit more about her here.
The girls from her local board have asked for help in getting the word out on how we can help her husband and daughter. If you could pass this information on in your own blogs, it would be greatly appreciated.
