But their happiness was soon overshadowed by concern. Adam was swiftly surrounded by medical staff, and Andrea’s husband, having caught only a glimpse of his son, reported, “Honey, there’s something wrong with Adam’s leg.” As Andrea lay alone in the ward, the uncertainty and worry grew, especially as she was left without clear information about her newborn.
