Hertfordshire woman spent eight months "in agony" after C-section scar became infected

A new mum spent eight months in agony after her C-section wound became infected. Dawn Schamely, 40, had to bite down a flannel daily to manage the pain caused by the wound. It came after Dawn - who had been told she would never have children - gave birth to her son George in March 2022.

The former restaurant chef suffers from endometriosis, which doctors said would prevent her from getting pregnant. She and her husband Dan Schamely, 43, were warned her endometriosis was so advanced that there was "no possible way" she'd get pregnant.
