Jake and Nora struggled to conceive. From the moment they got together, they always dreamed of becoming parents, and one day, after plenty of struggles and tries, their wish finally came true.
Nora got pregnant. They were expecting a girl, and as days went by, they couldn’t wait to finally meet their precious bundle of joy.
The day their baby girl was welcomed into the world, Jake and Nora were overjoyed.
“Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Rogers; it’s a baby girl!” the nurse said with a smile on her face.
“Can I see her?” Nora inquired anxiously as the nurses seemed to be taking a while to finish cleaning the baby.

“Of course! Here you go.” The nurse finally placed the baby in her arms. Nora was over the moon. Her baby daughter was the most stunning little creature she had ever seen.
“Thank you, darling. Thank you so much for this miracle,” Jake told his loving wife. “We did this together, honey. I wouldn’t have gotten through that difficult pregnancy without your help,” Nora replied.
As they couldn’t stop looking at their miracle baby, which came into their lives after several miscarriages, the new parents started talking about the baby’s name.
“I know we thought of several names already, but I don’t know if any of them fit anymore,” Nora began as she placed her lips on the baby’s head. “How about Hope?”
“Hope?” Jake said it in wonder. “I think that’s the best name for her. Hello, Hope, my darling baby girl. We’re going to love you so much.”

The nurses took Hope so that Nora could take some rest, and after some time, they returned together with the doctor, looking scared and pale. Their facial expression spoke of trouble.
“I’m so sorry, Mr. and Mrs. Rogers. But your baby went into an unexpected cardiac arrest. We did everything we could, but despite our best efforts, we couldn’t revive her. I’m afraid she’s gone,” the neonatal doctor revealed.
Hearing these words, Jake and Nora’s world shattered into a million pieces. They had just held their sweet baby, and now, all of a sudden, she was gone.
“NO! That’s not possible! Bring the doctor back! He’s lying!” Nora wailed.
