about neonatal death, about babies dying and me being in the ICU, I knew they didn't care. That's been very clear to me from the beginning. But to hear it from someone else that she was the executive director of Origins and she didn't know I was in the ICU was just heartbreaking to think that my life and my son's life, all of our lives were treated just so callously.

It's awful to relive it and to hear it, but also it just gives me so much hope. There's something very unique about hearing our stories on this kind of platform, even hearing my own story, because living through it, being three years postpartum now, in a lot of ways, I feel detached from the person that that happened to. I feel almost like it's a movie in a way that

Listening to Markita's story anytime always has me in ugly sobs. Malik holds a very large part of my heart and I think about him every single day. It reminds me every day of why I get up and I do this, why I'm so invested in mama and learning more and trying to help. My mission is to help other moms and to prevent this from happening again. This podcast is a dream come true.

I'm incredibly grateful because what has been silenced and what has been pushed behind closed doors is now open into the light and people can make their own choices and they can make their own judgments on what happened. And maybe this sparks conversation to make changes.

Could not agree more. Thank you so much, Dr. Clark. I mean, it brings tears to my eyes just to hear you say that. This started with if we could just help one person, it would be enough. And I think we've done more than that. There seems to be this unequal scale for how we judge hospitals as opposed to how we judge out-of-hospital settings.

There is something very unique about trauma that comes out of hospital birth. someone probably told you that you shouldn't do that, that you should do what you are quote unquote supposed to do and just go to a hospital and just go see an OBGYN. So when you have this really bad outcome, you blame yourself.

And depending on the people that you interacted with, you may have been judged or treated differently during your care because of what you chose previously. And if something really bad happens, There's a lot of blame and a lot of guilt, I know personally. I'm relieved of that blame today. I don't fault myself for the choices I made with the knowledge that I had then.
