Divers are continuing the search for missing passengers around the wreck of a boat that was destroyed by a fire in the early hours of Monday off the coast of California. Emergency personnel have so far recovered 25 bodies. The scuba diving vessel Conception was on a three-day excursion and was moored off the coast of Santa Cruz Island when the blaze started. Five crew members were able to escape.

Our patient was bleeding. She was also seven months pregnant, did not speak English and we had limited medical history. Just for this patient alone, we ticked off several chapters from the obstetric emergencies book.
