The second child is born, a girl. A happy event. Until tragedy strikes. After an odyssey that lasts for a month, a 32-year-old puerpera from Ogliastra ends up in the operating room for a serious internal hemorrhage that no one had noticed. The surgical team from the Lanusei hospital directed by the head physician Gian Pietro Gusai, who returns in a hurry from his home in Siniscola, operates on her and saves her life on Easter night.
The woman had lost three liters of blood, had a devastated tube and a deeply damaged uterus with compromise of an arterial branch . The two-hour operation was crucial. The patient would not have survived another trip, not even by helicopter, to Cagliari.
The woman's husband and the little girl's little brother see a nightmare come to an end . Contacted by the reporter, they do not release a shred of a statement.
