Thorough diagnosis and quick thinking save life of first-grade teacher
For Sammie Wikel, a 29-year-old first-grade teacher at Osage Elementary School in Pryor, life was good.
She lived on the family farm with her husband Derek and his 6-year-old daughter, surrounded by four generations. As they raised horses, cows, goats and even a couple of tortoises on the farm, Wikel also wanted to raise a child of her own.
Even though her first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage, they kept trying and were happy to be pregnant again.
