Standing in bare feet on the cold hardwood floor, her arms around his neck. Being in the comfort of her own home brings a sliver of calmness as he wraps his arms around her. She squeezes as hard as she can as a tear rolls down her cheek. He holds her as close as he can, desperately trying to alleviate her pain and comfort her in the only way he can.

This is the story of Myca & Jay, and the journey they travelled together to bring their son Haus into this world.
