After the safe arrival of her second baby, Poppy, Lil Bryant was anxious to return home from hospital to the peace and sanctuary of Mount Doreen Station - some 400km northwest of Alice Springs. Eagerly awaiting her return was her toddler son Dawson and hubbie Sam, along with Lil's beloved outback 'station family' of employees. But just nine days after Poppy's birth, Lil awoke in the middle of the night and immediately knew that 'something wasn't right'. Still half asleep, she turned on the bathroom nights and was greeted with a confronting sight. Lil was experiencing a significant Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) - and everyone at the station that night would have to work together to keep the terrified young Mum alive. ***Thanks so much for listening to this episode of the Flying Doctor Podcast.
