8 months into her pregnancy, this brave woman decides to get on a plane from Taiwan to Los Angeles. Little did she know that this flight would be a life-changing one for her. She successfully gave birth to a beautiful baby girl 30,000 feet in the air, with the help of Dr. Angelica Zhen who happened to be flying back from her honeymoon. Amazing!
