A pregnant lady was under the care of a gynaecologist. At full term, C-section was performed and a healthy child was delivered. However, the patient developed post-op complications. She bled profusely which necessitated an open surgery.
Things went from bad to worse; the patient had to be transferred to another hospital where despite critical care treatment, she passed away.
