00:00 According to Freedom Lord Chambers, on March 4, 2024, Amelia's mother, Tenille Saunders,
00:06 was admitted to Discover General Hospital to have her baby.
00:09 The next day, she was then transferred via helicopter to the Port of Spain General Hospital
00:14 and admitted to the maternity ward, where she underwent an emergency caesarean section.
00:20 Amelia was born at 29 weeks gestation and was transferred to the Port of Spain General
00:25 Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for observation.
00:30 On March 7, 2024, Saunders saw her daughter for the first time and observed that she was
00:36 in an incubator, hooked up to a ventilator with tubes connected to her body.
00:40 However, she was reassured that the baby was doing okay and there was no need to worry,
00:45 as this was normal for premature babies.
00:48 On March 30, 2024, the doctors advised the parents that Amelia had an infection, so they
00:55 were putting her on antibiotics.
00:57 The next day, on March 31, 2024, a doctor advised the couple that a blood transfusion
01:02 was being done because Amelia had picked up a bacteria.
01:06 On April 1, the doctor then reassured them that they need not worry as the hospital was
01:11 doing everything it could to help their baby.
01:14 However, around 3 a.m. on April 2, 2024, the couple received a phone call from the
01:20 hospital saying that their daughter was not improving and she would not make it through
01:25 the day.
01:26 Later that day, baby Amelia passed away.
