Jackie Miller James, a well-known influencer from California, is currently fighting for her life in the hospital after experiencing a brain aneurysm just one week before her scheduled delivery. The dire situation led to her being placed in a medically-induced coma, Your Content has learned.
Throughout her pregnancy, Jackie had shared her joyous journey with her 27,000 Instagram followers, documenting the milestones and moments of anticipation. However, tragedy struck when she collapsed and was discovered by her husband, Austin James, who promptly rushed her to the hospital.
Despite the challenging circumstances, the couple’s baby girl was born safely via emergency caesarean and spent her initial days in the NICU, thankfully without any harm. The responsibility of caring for their newborn now rests with Austin, who has been dedicatedly looking after their daughter.
In the midst of this difficult time, Jackie has undergone five brain surgeries and remains on life support. The family has initiated a fundraising campaign to support her medical care and treatment. Specialists anticipate that Jackie will require an extended stay in the ICU, along with substantial therapy and assistance during her recovery.
Jackie’s sisters, Natalie and Nicelle, are leading the fundraising efforts, aiming to provide her with the best possible care. Expressing their gratitude for the support received, they shared on their GoFundMe page, “If Jackie and the baby had arrived at the hospital a few minutes later, we likely would have lost both of them. But instead, Jackie continues to fight for her life each day, and we remain optimistic that she can overcome the odds with the right specialists and therapeutic methods. Though the road ahead will be challenging, our unwavering commitment is to reunite Jackie with her daughter and husband.”
Just a few days before her health crisis, Jackie had shared a series of glamorous pregnancy photos on Instagram, along with a lighthearted image featuring a hamburger resting on her stomach. Her last post on May 18 highlighted unexpected pregnancy symptoms, including excessive snoring that affected her husband’s sleep and bouts of unexplained crying.
As an influencer, Jackie has amassed a significant following on Instagram, with over 27,000 dedicated followers. Additionally, her entertaining videos on TikTok have garnered nearly 120,000 likes,‘according to New York Post.
