My niece Camille and her husband Michael, welcomed there baby daughter Finley on January 5, 2012. Camille was determined not to have a C-section, so after 3 hours of labor, Finley was born. They went home a few days after as usual. The next few days were fine with lots sleeping and eating. Camille was very swollen with fluid, but the doctor did not seem to be concerned telling her it was all normal after a very easy and normal pregnancy. Well, Camille starting having seizures and ended up having Postpartum Preeclampsia. Who knew there was such a thing! So scary and serious. Her blood pressure was so high it caused the seizures. She had swelling on the brain caused by the seizures. After days in the hospital and time in the ICU, they are home now and fine. Michael and Camille are just trying to recover from such a scary event and adjust to the lost days with their newborn. I had the privilege of spending 2 days with Finley while Camille was in the hospital. She is so beautiful and such a good baby. Keep them in your prayers and let's hope Camille is over this very scary and life threatening condition.
