I nearly died after giving birth

When you are about to die, you can feel life draining out of you. Your eyes lose focus and your limbs can barely move. It is almost useless to even try fighting it — that damn dying feeling. And when everything becomes all hazy, there is a certain zeal that kicks in; the urgent desire to live, and for about a minuscule minute it helps you to fight that floating and drifting feeling.

And when no help arrives, your mind takes over and resolves to accept the inevitable. It’s a horrible feeling and all the things you haven’t done or haven’t said to the people you love become so evident that you want to cry. You want to shout out loud and say, “I am not done with living damn it!”
