The doctors rushed out of the room and room him and we knew something was wrong. They brought him back for Jeramie and me to hold. They were scared. They thought he would die.
I held him and promised him that I would do everything I could take save him. That I would love him no matter what.
We had agreed to name him “peter” and then after what felt like hundreds of hours they came in and told us he had “peters anomaly.” Jer and I looked at each other and immediately said “change his name to Ben.”
