A MUM was left with PTSD after suffering two cardiac arrests and requiring CPR during childbirth.
Keeley Wilson, 36, recalls the ECG monitor flatlining and hearing a long beep as surgeons performed a c-section. Her next memory is of the anaesthetist performing chest compressions before her heart stopped for a second time. She regained consciousness to hear her newborn daughter Sophia crying, but had sustained broken ribs during the attempts to restart her heart.
Despite extensive tests, medics were unable to determine why she suffered two cardiac arrests.
The traumatic experience left Keeley, a travel consultant from Rochdale who also runs a Christmas tree decorating business, battling PTSD, anxiety, flashbacks and nightmares.
She said: "I think it's fair to say I actually died twice. My last memory was feeling so sick, then seeing the line go flat and hearing that long beep, and everyone hitting buttons.
