Narrative essay
September 26, 1999, I took my son in for his two-month check up. When I got there, the receptionist said, “Dr. Welsh is gone for the day, but Dr. Spangler would be happy to see him.” Little did I know that this slight change in plans would change my life forever. When I went to the hospital to be induced for labor, I was extremely excited. I knew when we walked out there would be three people instead of two. I was induced around 2:00 A.M. Finally, after an hour and a half of labor, Jaden LeRoy Olson was born. His umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck twice, and he was not breathing. The doctors took him right away. Within a few minutes he was crying, and so was I. When the nurse handed him to me she said, “He’s just fine, you have a healthy eight and a half pound baby boy!” The next day when they brought Jaden back to me after his bath, I was being nosey and looked at his medical chart. In the complications area there was a comment, it said that he had a heart murmur. My heart dropped, I looked at Jaden and started bawling. Adam, Jaden’s dad, asked me what was wrong. I showed him the clipboard, and he reassured me that he was fine. If there was something really wrong they would tell me, right?
