Samantha Casper
About three years and eight months after welcoming her daughter, Sam Casper experienced an even more severe case of preeclampsia during her second pregnancy. This condition, characterized by extremely high blood pressure and an adverse reaction to the placenta, necessitated an emergency C-section at 32 weeks. Sam’s son, Brooks, spent approximately six weeks in the intensive care nursery before finally coming home. Now approaching his first birthday, Brooks is thriving and healthy, bringing immense joy to his family.
Grateful for the absence of postpartum depression this time around, Sam immediately formed a strong bond with Brooks. Unlike her first experience with breastfeeding, she successfully nursed him, a stark contrast that contributed to her overall well-being. As Brooks joined the family just in time for her 35th birthday, she reflected on the challenges they had overcome together, feeling profoundly fortunate for their health and resilience. The depth of her love for both Charley and Brooks transcends words.
