Healthy' first-time mother, 19, and her newborn baby die just hours apart after she was taken to hospital with 'breathing difficulties'

 A tragic incident unfolded in Greater Manchester, UK, where 19-year-old Mellodie-Ocean Jarman and her newborn daughter, Athena-Pearl, passed away just hours apart. Mellodie, described as a healthy first-time mother, had been experiencing symptoms of faintness and dizziness. Despite these concerns, she was diagnosed with low iron levels and sent home with antibiotics. The following day, her condition deteriorated, leading to an emergency C-section at Royal Bolton Hospital, where she delivered Athena-Pearl seven weeks prematurely. Tragically, Mellodie died shortly after the operation, and her daughter, deprived of oxygen, also passed away. The family is awaiting investigation results to determine the cause of Mellodie's death.

This heartbreaking event underscores the critical importance of thorough medical evaluations, especially for expectant mothers presenting with symptoms such as dizziness and faintness. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is essential to prevent such tragedies.

In the aftermath, the family has set up a fundraiser to cover funeral costs and has received significant community support. They have expressed gratitude to the hospital staff for their efforts in trying to save the baby.
