  1. The pain of which her partner, family and friends must be going through on something that should be so beautiful. That poor child going forward without their mother in such a profoundly sad circumstance, man.

    That’s a tough one to read.

  2. โ€œIn addition to being a Chiefs cheerleader and yoga instructor-

    Anderson was also a software engineer, according to her obituary, โ€œmaking significant contributions to improving healthcare, including being awarded a patent for developing software that assesses the risk of post-partum hemorrhage.โ€

    Also, preceded in death by another infant, James, and this one stillborn. โ€œ

  3. This is awful, I feel for the family and her friends – especially in today’s world where US maternal mortality rates continue to rise. Tragedies like this just suck, and I’m maddened that they seem to keep increasing in frequency.

  4. Just so awful. And to read that the child was stillborn and she was preceded in death by an infant son. So tragic. Canโ€™t imagine what the family must be feeling

  5. This was nearly me. I developed septicemia after birth of my son. 106.7 temperature, my kidneyโ€™s were shutting down, and had I not gone back to the hospital I would have died within a few hours. This poor family. Breaks my heart.

  6. This is just awful. My wife just gave birth to our baby girl three weeks ago and sheโ€™s been so over the moon about it. Itโ€™s horrific to think about how so many women carry a baby for 9 months, happy and over the moon about the chance to bring that baby into the world, only for the baby to be stillborn. Then on top of that, Krystal loses her life too. Just downright awful.

  7. My Mom showed me this last night. Very very sad. Prayers going out to her family. KC Strong but damn has there been a lot of tragedy this last month.

  8. Stuff like this is why I could never be happy in medicine. We understand so little (comparatively) about the human body, how it works and how to fix stupid stuff like this.

    Tragedy, RIP Chiefs family member
