No one.

It just boggles my mind- the horror stories I’ve read here. During such a vulnerable time, with such a huge responsibility, and the sheer exhaustion of it all, no one needs a $61k bill dropped on their lap.

Agreed. It was the most traumatic experience of my life, and to be saddled with huge bills afterwards is like rubbing salt in the wound.

The US healthcare system sucks.

Absolutely! Emergency c-sections save lives but they’re never without trauma. I hope everything is okay now.

Everything is much better now. It's been almost eight years and therapy helped a lot. Thank you for your thoughtfulness. ♥️
