The Birth That Nearly Took Our Lives: How My Son Sparked My Mission | Jessica Hurley

At 24 weeks pregnant, Jessica Hurley walked into a routine appointment—and never went back to work. What followed was a nightmare she couldn’t have prepared for: severe preeclampsia, stroke-level blood pressure, an emergency delivery at 25 weeks, and the fight for both her and her son’s lives. In this jaw-dropping and tear-jerking conversation, Jessica opens up about the moment she was told, “It’s you or the baby,” and how the chaos of that day—and the miracle that followed—became the catalyst for everything she built after. Her son Cameron was born at just 1 lb. 11 oz, he cried like a cat, and Jessica’s life was never the same. This is the breakdown before the breakthrough. This is the birth of EPYC.
