 At 41, after being told natural pregnancy would be nearly impossible, Dimi received the shock of her life—a positive pregnancy test. But what began as unexpected joy quickly spiraled into a rare medical emergency that would keep her hospitalized for six weeks and change her understanding of fertility, loss, and resilience forever. In this deeply moving episode, assistant principal Dimi Sfetsas shares her experience with cervical ectopic pregnancy—one of the rarest forms of ectopic pregnancy, occurring in less than 0.1% of all pregnancies. Her story takes us through: The whirlwind of discovering an unexpected pregnancy after being referred to egg donorsThe terrifying progression from miscarriage suspicion to life-threatening ectopic diagnosisSix weeks of hospital isolation during COVID, including methotrexate injections, constant haemorrhage risk, and the emotional weight of a procedure that ended a heartbeat10 days in complete isolation after COVID exposure—no window, no walks, just survivingThe dismissive aftermath: "It happened, just forget about it"How fertility treatments became both a distraction and an obsession through 8 egg freezing cycles in one yearThe four-year journey to finally grieve and reconnect with herself through meditation and sound healing in GreeceWhere she stands now: in the two-week wait, still navigating the question every person facing infertility asks—when is enough, enough? Dimi's vulnerability in sharing her story—much of which she's never spoken about publicly—offers validation for anyone who has felt alone in pregnancy loss, fertility struggles, or the isolating experience of medical trauma. This episode covers sensitive topics including pregnancy loss, ectopic pregnancy, medical procedures, and infertility. Please listen with care.
