my sister had hellp syndrome with her first born and he was taken by emergency c-section at 26 weeks. she was in icu for quite awhile herself and was told that she may had residual liver and kidney damage. She was followed by high risk obgyn's prior to the diagnosis due to her regular obgyn felt something was not quite right but nothing showed. This was a horrible life changing experience for the entire family. There was times that we did not know if she/baby was going to survive. Lucky this is 5 years later and both are fine. This is a very serious condition that not only effects the mother but the child also.
