Chattanooga Medical Team - THURSDAY NIGHT

At 10:00 PM, the team was getting ready for bed.  I was on the computer finishing my daily blog report, and someone walked by my window and said that a woman who had come to the hospital to deliver her baby was having problems.  I thought it would be interesting that we would begin and end the week with a cesarean, but that's exactly what happened.

As on Sunday, the team gathered quickly, and by 10:39, a baby girl was born.  When she was pulled from the womb, she was very purple.  Bridget quickly took her out of the room and put her under the warmer.  After a few minutes of working with her, the baby was turning pink as she should.

By 11:00, they were finishing with mom, and they rolled her into the recovery room. 

It was a beautiful way to end the evening and to finish the work of the team here in Cubulco.
