The Apple Watch saved two lives at one time as it helped get a pregnant woman with a serious condition to drive to the hospital saving her life and the life of her unborn child.
The Apple Watch has been known to save lives but according to Los Angeles CBS affiliate KCAL, the timepiece recently saved two lives at one time. 39-year-old Jess Kelly was pregnant and she explains what happened that fateful day."I had been laying in bed ... not feeling well.

It’s to pay attention to it and listen to your body." Dr. Brian Kolski also recommends the Apple Watch. A cardiologist at Providence St. Joseph Hospital, he doesn’t treat Kelly but he does have patients who are prescribed Apple Watches to monitor certain heart conditions.
"Sounds like it was accurate and one of the first signs when people are in trouble, whether it’s low blood pressure, bleeding, is an elevated heart rate," Kolski said. And if you go back through the stories that we've passed along in the past about the
