Woman who didn't know she was pregnant delivers healthy 10-lb baby
Quote:
A Michigan woman reportedly traveled to Allegiance Health Friday, telling doctors she suspected she was suffering from a hernia.
Instead, she gave birth to a ten-pound baby girl.
Linda Ackley, 44, of Summit Township, Michigan, reportedly gave birth to the child after physicians determined she was pregnant.
Quote:
According to Ackley, in February 2011 she contracted necrotizing fasciitis, a bacterial infection that attacks soft tissue. Her blood-sugar level was far above normal and her immune system shut down, leaving her in a coma for a week. The resulting abdominal surgery conducted in an effort to address the string of health issues convinced doctors that she would never have babies.
