B C mom finally meets newborn son after coming out of COVID-19 coma

  VANCOUVER An Abbotsford mom who gave birth by emergency C-section while battling COVID-19 has been brought out of an induced coma and has finally met her baby boy. An update posted on the family’s GoFundMe page says doctors eased Gillian McIntosh out of sedation late last week and she no longer requires a ventilator, although she remains in the ICU. McIntosh tested positive for COVID-19 on Nov. 6, while nearly 36 weeks pregnant, and was admitted to hospital a few days later. On Nov. 10, with her condition deteriorating, doctors decided she needed a ventilator. The emergency C-section was performed that night and her newborn son spent the first 15 days of his life in the NICU while his mother was in a coma in the ICU.
