Birth and Death
After a normal C-section birth, Ruby Graupera-Cassimiro faced cardiac arrest, prompting her return to the operating room at a Florida hospital. Intubated swiftly by Dr. Jordan Knurr, her heart struggled for over two hours, even halting its pumping. Amidst farewell preparations, her heart astonishingly reignited without medical intervention, attributed to an amniotic fluid embolism. Despite odds, Ruby emerged in excellent health, leaving the hospital days later with her newborn daughter. In awe of her recovery, she acknowledges a higher power’s role, stating, “Someone else was running the show that day; there’s no doubt in my mind.”
