Chapter 48

• Each image was more heartbreaking than the last, and the worst came when I reached the one showing the tiny, lifeless body of my unborn son lying on the cold tray in the operating room where Roxanne was being treated.
• I regretted reliving my pain in this way, regretted having to face it all over again, because, in truth, it hurt too much. However, it was the only way for Renato to believe that what was happening was real.
• But he wasn't as affected as Rose. With what little strength she had, she approached the TV, paused the video right on the image of the lifeless baby, and began to slide her fingers across the screen. She shook her head, in disbelief. She wasn't the only one feeling this way, because, just like Rose, my heart was flipping, unsure of what I was seeing. Of what I had lost.
