Erin Bates Paine Suffers Severe Seizure, Remains Critical in ICU After Childbirth Complications
Reality television personality Erin Bates Paine, known from TLC’s “Bringing Up Bates,” is in critical condition in the ICU after suffering a severe seizure earlier this week. This concerning development follows her admission for septic shock, which occurred after the birth of her seventh child, Henry, on August 25.
Her husband, Chad Paine, shared a heart-wrenching update on Instagram, revealing that Erin had experienced “a lengthy and severe seizure” after a brief period of improvement. “We are back in a place of heartache, uncertainty and tears,” Chad wrote, describing the agony of watching his wife struggle while feeling powerless to ease her suffering. Doctors are currently conducting extensive scans and tests to determine the cause of the seizure and her extreme weakness.
Erin was initially hospitalized and taken to the ICU after developing a severe UTI and kidney infection that progressed to septic shock. Baby Henry, born prematurely, has been in the NICU since his birth. Erin’s sister, Michaela Keilen, also provided an update on the infant, sharing photos and expressing profound gratitude for the overwhelming support and prayers the family has received.
Paine has a well-documented history of significant health issues, including a blood clotting disorder, multiple miscarriages, and past surgeries for ruptured cysts and gallbladder removal. Despite these challenges, she welcomed Henry, her third child in less than three years. The family continues to appeal for prayers for Erin’s recovery during this intensely difficult period.
