Another Christmas Tale - 18th December

In the early afternoon, Rasoa and her mother arrive at the hospital. The porter - who is also responsible for patient triage - immediately grasps the situation and takes the two women to the maternity ward. Fortunately, the examination room is just being cleared and Rasoa is placed on the bed. She does not stay there long. It is immediately clear to the doctor: eclampsia. An emergency caesarean has to be performed - now!
