After experiencing an amniotic fluid embolism in 2022, I underwent a challenging journey that included a month-long hospitalization and an eight-day induced coma. Throughout this ordeal, I battled respiratory, heart, and kidney failure. Gratefully, the exceptional care from medical professionals and the selfless generosity of blood donors, who contributed a total of 45 units, saved my life. The unwavering support from the Hamilton community deeply touched me, inspiring me to pay it forward by donating the equivalent of the 45 units of blood I once received. First one done!
