The Sad Part
After the baby girl was delivered, Marc and the team took them straight to the hospital. When everything seemed fine a sad discovery was waiting to be revealed. Although both the mother and the baby were healthy and doing fine the mother told her true condition to the doctors. She couldn’t take care of the baby and she wanted it to put the newborn for adoption. She wasn’t a minor then why she wanted to give up her own very first baby girl up? The answer was more disheartening.
Struggling Mother
Within a few hours of the baby girl and her mother taken to the hospital, it was clear that the lady was a single mother. She didn’t have anyone to look after the baby. She was already so caught up in taking care of her teenage son that it seemed impossible for her to bring up another girl especially when she was struggling both financially as well as emotionally.
Eligible Parents
Every mother wants her baby to be happy even if the unfortunate circumstances bound them to give their babies up. Similarly, this woman was concerned about her child too and that’s when she shared her concerns with the doctors. The doctors told about the woman’s condition to the firefighters’ team who were involved in delivering the baby. When Marc was getting an update from the doctor about the lady and her baby he got the news that the little girl he just delivered is going to be put up for adoption. All of a sudden it reminded him of Beth, his loving wife for an obvious reason.
Need You Now
Marc was disheartened after realizing that the first baby he ever delivered was put up for adoption. He wanted to share his feelings with someone and who else could have been better than Beth? Thus, Marc called Beth to speak his heart out. He told about the whole incident at first he was excited when he told about the first half part of the story, but his voice was filled with disappointment while telling the latter half.
Fatherly Instincts
Beth sensed that it was heartbreaking for Marc. He himself is a father of two and he felt sad for the poor infant who is to be put through the adoption agencies and possibly will not get a nice family. He told Beth about how he jokingly told the doctors that he’ll be her father. And Beth’s response to this was so amazing.
Longed For A Baby Girl
“He called me and he was ecstatic. I mean, he delivered a baby and who in the world gets to deliver a baby in their lifetime that’s not a doctor,” she recalls in an interview. The couple already had two boys but they always longed for a girl. However, adoption was never their plan they always liked it as an alternative though. Just like Marc’s funny statement in front of the doctors to be the infant’s father, Beth too said something similar to Marc when she got to know about this special little angelic girl.
