from Tennessean:
"Joanna Montgomery was featured in the Mother’s Day issue of The
Tennessean. Since telling her story through her blog, she has received national
attention, including a September appearance on Katie Couric’s show, “Katie.”
Follow Montgomery at www.hellojomo.com or on Twitter @hellojomo."
"On Dec. 1, 2011, I underwent an emergency C-section.
Mysterious pain brought me into the emergency room, and it was discovered that
I was experiencing a partial placental abruption."
"I now know that it was pain from the cancer growing inside
me that brought me to the emergency room that day. It was the cancer that
alerted us to the fact that our little girl was about to lose her source of
nourishment.
It was the cancer that
saved her life. And she saved mine, too. If I hadn't become pregnant, the
cancer — a typically asymptomatic type — likely would not have been discovered
until it had spread much further."
