The nurses at the hospital kept the stillborn child in a cold room in ensuring that the grieving couple could see their boy as frequently as they wanted.

Last December 2013, the mother of three unexpectedly became pregnant with a fourth child. Knowing her medical history from her previous pregnancy, Bell carefully monitored her health to avoid any complications

However, after her 28th and 32-week scans, the results showed that Rory was not developing normally. Nearing her due date, Bell’s feet started to swell and her blood pressure started skyrocketing.

Five weeks before her due date, Bell was suddenly struck by agonizing pain and was rushed to the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle.

Upon checkup, the nurses were shocked to find that the baby no longer had a heartbeat. Rory had already lost his life.

Then, Bell started to hemorrhage and was rushed to the emergency room, where she lost 15 pints of blood. To stop further bleeding, the doctors had to perform a hysterectomy.

Her kidneys began to fail, prompting the need for dialysis. Things were not looking well for her.

Bell was put into an induced coma for 2 days.

Apparently, her pre-eclampsia had triggered the hemorrhage, since her placenta detached from her womb.

When she finally escaped death and woke up from her coma, Bell was terrified to see her son.

Today, Bell has moved on. Many times, her friends feel awkward mentioning Rory, but she loves talking about her son. She continued to say that she is lucky to be alive, promising to never forget her baby.
