Milo McCabe was busy battling Covid-19 while his wife, Roxanne was busy delivering their baby. Neither one of them expected the pandemic to play such a big role in the birth of their first child, but it did, big time.
Milo and Roxanne were actually in the same hospital when their daughter, Emberly Anne, arrived. And the new daddy was able to watch the whole thing thanks to Zoom.
"It was emotional," Milo, 29, said. "I cried for the first time in a very long time. I was scared and happy, and sad, and frustrated with myself. But it was definitely something that I had to look forward to on the other side of everything."
Roxanne was so grateful to able to share this special moment with her husband. "I am grateful that we have the technology that we do today. Milo was still able to see her in the moments that she was born and he was able to hear her cry for the first time."
Mother and baby AND daddy, who has recovered, are all doing fine and home together.
