The family of a Minnesota mom who gave birth while on a ventilator fighting coronavirus is pleading for a transfer to a hospital that could give her emergency live-saving treatment. Aurora Chacon Esparza, 35, has been on a ventilator fighting coronavirus in a Minnesota hospital for 21 days. North Memorial Hospital is not an ECMO center, however, and all requests to be transferred to another hospital for treatment have been denied. She's going to make it,' her husband of seven years, Juan Duran, told Fox 9. Yet doctors have warned the family that transfer requests are being denied because Esparza has been on a ventilator for too long.
