Man that sucks...Just had a beautiful baby and to finally take him home and then you die.
Poor baby.
God Bless this family

They are updating yay!  I only submitted this today. 

She seemed like a kind soul. She seemed to be really excited about getting married and her new baby.  She didn't know she was pregnant until she was 5 months.

Her and her partner were a bit of a strange pairing it looked like to me. - Opposites attract I guess!

I wonder what killed her.

[Just Me]

I submitted something a week ago and it still isn't on and you submitted this the other day?
Oh well.


I just hope the baby is being loved as much as she would have loved him.
I feel for this poor girl. Everything to look forward to and then boom she is gone.

[Olivia]

I think they have submitted a whole bunch of recently submitted ones - most of the updates so far today are ones I put in today.  I don't think it's personal don't worry hehe.

There is something like 3000 deaths waiting to be submitted - ones I have submitted months ago still aren't on.

WOW!  How incredibly sad.  Her family has to be devastated.  The baby will never know his Mommy.  God Bless her family and may they find peace soon.

My guess is a blood clot.  She probably never knew what hit her!

SO SAD!

wow she gave birth at 19..I'm 19 now and if I were pregnant there would be heart attacks all around, starting with me. :-o

Seriously though. I kill plastic plants.

Eclampsia and pre-eclampsia is associated with pregnancy deaths - usually presents as high blood pressure and seizures.  Something like 40% have no symptoms until after delivery.

I was 19 the first time I got pregnant and had toxemia.  They caught it a couple of weeks before he was born.  I think that can be pretty serious if it is not treated.

This is a sad story.

This makes me really cranky.  You get these total dickheads who kill their wives, children and families and get a few years in jail.  And then you get someone who was so excited about their new baby and husband who drops dead after bringing the baby home.

It's so unfair.

RIP Delrae.  At least the baby has his father and his mom's twin brother to look after him.

And I have to say, I'm SO THANKFUL that excusesexcuses was band, and now we don't have to listen to his ignorant rants about how "its a good thing shes dead, just another illegal costing us money"

[shiki]

she had a c-section on the 5th and then collapsed at her home on the 7th. WTF? :? Why was she home so soon? I have had 2 c-sections and the minimum they kept me was 5 days. I had to stay an extra day after my daughter was born. A c-section is major surgery, you deal with the pain with lots of morphine...I can't understand why she was released so soon except prolly insurance these days are just so cut throat.   

[Karalicious]

yeah thats a really good point. Why was she home so soon? She really shouldnt have been! RIP Delrae. :(

[Random_Girl]

This is really sad...she should not have been home so soon...it was probably because of insurance.  I had 2 c-sections and I was in the hospital 3 days time and 4 the other... :?  RIP

[MAVEN]

what a sad, sad story.  rip delrae and i hope her baby will be loved and raised to know about his mom.  sounds like maybe a pulmonary embolism or something like that...it is frustrating to see this sort of death about someone who embraced life with all of the gusto possible and then see the idiots all around here huffing & drinking their way into oblivion.

How tragic.  Seems this family is struck with tragedy. From Delrae's about me:

I hate it when people tell racial jokes and black jokes especially. I also hate gay jokes! I hate drugs. First reason is that they are bad for you.....it doesn't take a brain scientist to figure that out, and the second it that on April 30,2004 I lost my sister to an over dose of Meth.

[Tinakina]

I had a c section and was home and doing my friends nails after 3 days. After going through (coach) 4 natural births with my sister-in-law, I'll take c section any time!

RIP Delrae

[MzzCat]

It could also be related to a staph infection following her C-section. I had a staph infection after having my son and the damn hospital did not even realize I had the infection until my incision had burst open and was oozing. So sad.

[Plaincat]

Poor kiddo.

She sounds like she would have been a very good mom.  :-( RIP

[Tinakina]

I'm wondering, though, if the dad has the baby. Delrae's mom has pics and also tells her son to come by the house to see the baby.

[jeckenwix]

I had a c-section and I just stayed in the hospital for 2 days....they made me wait EXACTLY 48 hours before they would let me go....

Can you send the link to Delrae's mum?

[Tinakina]

I'm sorry...I don't know how to do that  , but if you go to her brothers' page (Joel), the mom is Emma.

Thanks!
