Choosing Waterbirth: Reclaiming The Sacred Power Of Birth - Plot & Excerpts
Before that, it was Nilakantan I was worried about. Page 113 On May 9th, three weeks ago, Nilakantan woke up in the middle of the night with violent stomach cramps. He was so sick, he had to be taken to the ER. He spent an entire day there while they treated him for severe dehydration, and then sent him home that evening, uncured, with the probable diagnosis of "stomach flu." Over the next few days, he seemed to get only marginally better. He could eat very little, was tired all of the time, and five days later, the violent pain began to come back. We returned to the ER. After running more tests, a CT scan showed that he was suffering from a ruptured appendix, and that it had ruptured prior to his first trip to the hospital. Somehow they had missed it. That night he had emergency surgery. Fortunately I wasn't aware of the seriousness of his condition as I sat alone in the surgical waiting room while they operated. It was only later that I realized how lucky he was to be alive. The operation took two and a half hours.
