Baby Delivered at Oklahoma Heart Institute Saves Two Lives
“I thought this is serious,” says Andrea Eppley of the day she was admitted to the ICU at Oklahoma Heart Institute. She was pregnant with her second son and still five weeks before his due date. “I was really scared. What if I die?” Andrea had called her OB/Gyn Monday morning complaining of shortness of breath, inability to lay down to sleep and swelling of her legs and feet so severe she was not able to walk more than a few feet. Later that afternoon, at her appointment with her OB/Gyn, she was sent to Hillcrest Medical Center’s Peggy V.
