I had a baby on August 20, 1999. I had an uneventful birth but about 10 minutes after the birth I had what they call an amniotic embolysum. They say that there is a less than 1% survival rate and that I am very luck to be alive. I have tried to get information on this condition and have been unsuccessful. I am very curious to know what this is and what happened. If you can give me any information or direct me to where I can find some it would be greatly appriciated. I understand that this is very rare but I think that it is something that needes to be discussed with patients so they know that it is a possibility. Thank You so much, Leslie Trader
