Simone — a speech-language pathologist, master's degree, carefully planned pregnancy — told her postpartum nurse that something was wrong. Specifically, that she felt like she was going somewhere. The nurse recorded it as mild discomfort. Fifty-two minutes later, Simone's postpartum hemorrhage had progressed to emergency intervention. She survived. The fifty-two minutes between the beginning of her hemorrhage and the emergency response are the subject of pre-trial proceedings that she is navigating alongside the work of raising the daughter she almost didn't get to know. This is her full story, in her words. Part of The Trials of Women series.
