Whisked Away
Bringing a life into this world is a most miraculous thing. Being in charge of providing a permanent name for that life is an important responsibility not to be taken lightly. Tracy and her husband Rob were not afforded the opportunity to give their son a name before he was whisked away from them. Taken to a completely different hospital to be monitored and have tests run on his tiny heart. The ability to bond with his mother stripped away from them. He lay in an incubator surrounded by premature babies as different nurses came and went ... none of them smelling like his mother. None of them loving him as only a mother could. His mother lay in a maternity ward in a nearby hospital surrounded by other mom's and their new babies. As she struggled to drown out the sounds of their infant cries, she longed to hear the sound of her own son's cry.

The moment my whole world changed forever
Mere moments after watching our youngest daughter meet her baby brother, we were told our infant had a congenital heart disease (CHD). This was the moment our family was thrown into a world we never knew existed and dropped me to my knees in prayer. My son had been evaluated by a dozen doctors and nurses over the last 14-hours and no one had mentioned a murmur. Until one nurse, an angel sent by God, detected the murmur - not just a murmur but a harsh murmur. This set into motion a series of tests, evaluations and monitoring that separated an infant son from his mother, depriving them of their critical time to bond. To make matters worse, a miscommunication between the medical staff resulted in the family being told their baby was being taken away just as the transport team had arrived leaving the mother and father to explain to their 4-year-old daughter why her brother was whisked away.
