While pregnant with her first child, Brianna experienced the unthinkable — there’s really no other word for it.
Brianna and Austin were so excited to meet their baby boy. But one morning, Brianna’s mother-in-law called with devastating news.
“Austin had an accident” she told the confused mom-to-be.
After a two-hour drive to the hospital, Brianna learned that Austin had had a brain hemorrhage. But the reason behind the sudden horror was just as unexpected.
Austin had been drinking energy drinks ever since he’d picked up longer work hours and had to commute more frequently. It became a habit and, pretty soon, Austin was drinking them excessively. Doctors say they’re ultimately what caused Austin’s brain hemorrhage.
“After two weeks of living in a hospital, wondering if he would survive or be taken from us, we made our way back home,” Brianna wrote on Facebook. “The time had come for me to deliver our baby.”
Scroll down for Brianna’s incredibly raw and emotional story, along with beautiful photos taken by Sara Endres, a photographer from Sacramento.
Sara describes the shoot as a “very real, and very moving session” and you’re about to see why…

She wrote on the Endres Photography Facebook page:
Hello, my name is Brianna, and this is my story…
Love is not the little things. It is not the phone calls, the dates, or even the memories. Love is knowing you would sacrifice things that you didn’t even know you could sacrifice. Love is selfless.
Have you ever felt your life shake ? Have you ever been hit with so much emotional turmoil to the point where everything around you becomes fuzzy and shaken? Your lungs feel tight and for a brief second you can’t do anything. You are unable to move, unable to think, unable to even react. I have. I experienced something I never thought I would experience…all while nine months pregnant with my first child.”

Being pregnant is supposed to be one of the most amazing journeys you will ever embark on. You’re creating a new life. You are experiencing unconditional love for someone you have not even met.
Austin and I were so excited to meet our little boy. To bring him home. To be a family.

I never imagined as I went to sleep that night, that my whole world would be shattered within hours.
I still remember my mother in law waking me up that morning. ‘Austin had an accident’ she said.
All I knew was that my husband was in the hospital. The worst part? I didn’t know why.
