How I Almost Died During My C-Section — But God Saved Me
This delivery was different from the others.
It came with so much pain and fear.
I was taken into the theatre for a C-section. The doctors injected me with anesthesia, but I could still feel what they were doing. They gave me another dose, yet deep inside, something did not feel right.
Then one doctor looked at me and said,
“Mama, you are not ready. Who told you to come? You haven’t even contracted an inch.”
She did not understand the pain I had already endured.
The operation continued, and by God’s grace, my baby was delivered safely. She was so beautiful that everyone called her “the baby of the day.” Hearing that brought joy to my heart despite everything I was feeling.
After the surgery, I was taken outside the theatre while waiting to be moved to the ward.
That is when things suddenly changed.
One cleaner kept complaining that she was wiping blood, yet more blood continued flowing. She decided to trace where it was coming from. When the nurses checked, they discovered the blood was mine.
Immediately, the doctors rushed to me.
One doctor opened my eyes to examine me, then suddenly screamed for my file so she could confirm my blood type. The atmosphere changed instantly. Fear filled my heart.
Then she said words I will never forget:
“You are dying.”
I was shocked. Confused. Terrified.
I looked at her and asked,
“Am I really dying?”
At that moment, I knew only God could save me.
I began to pray with everything inside me. I called upon the name of Jesus, asking Him for mercy and life. The doctor informed me that they were preparing to take me back into theatre to find out what was causing the bleeding.
But deep within me, I cried out:
“Lord Jesus, save me! I am not going back there. Have mercy on me!”
They quickly added blood and continued treating me. The doctor told me she would observe me for a short while, but if the bleeding did not stop, they would operate again.
But Jesus stepped in
After five long hours of observation, the bleeding finally stopped. I was weak, exhausted, and shaken… but I was alive.
God healed me.
“I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.” — Psalm 118:17
What doctors feared would end in death became a testimony of God’s mercy and power.
“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” — Psalm 50:15
Today, I testify that Jesus saved my life.
Whoever the Son sets free is free indeed.
All glory be to God.
