Yes, I believe this is what happened to my friend with the rare disease of late pregnancy.

Even though she had a diagnosis, she was on a regular maternity ward.

None of the nurses / Drs. Seemed to really want to learn about her condition or make sure she was being treated correctly for her disease. She "didn't fit". Her death or the baby's death would have been "the cost of doing business".

Her doctor said 2 or 3 babies died of Choleostasis every YEAR, yet the nurses and doctors on the maternity ward were quite clueless.
