Episode description

In 2010, Kate Wallinga (Ignorance Was Bliss podcast) gave birth to her third child and didn't feel right.  After being dismissed by her doctors, she learned she had a serious infection from being exposed to strep in the delivery room.  Out of the four million women who give birth every year, only 100 get this kind of complication and only one of those women survive.  We talk about the medical emergency that changed her mind, her life, and the new perspectives that come from surviving.
