Carleton, 39, went into a coma when a benign brain tumor caused a seizure that placed her into a coma. On Thursday, the first-time mother gave birth to a healthy baby boy. Brian Lande, Carleton’s husband was devastated when his wife went into the coma during her second trimester, but was relieved when University of California, Medical Center performed a successful C-section on his wife. “As happy as I am to meet my son, it is incredibly painful for Melissa not to be awake with me for this,” Lande, who works as the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s deputy, told KTVU-TV. Lande said he is hopeful that his wife will one day recover to hold West Nathaniel Lande, her son.
