Alexander hesitated.
Not because he didn't trust her.
Because he was afraid.
Afraid someone else would fail his son.
Finally, he nodded.
Emily carefully adjusted the baby's position.
The crying became louder.
Everyone panicked.
But Emily remained calm.
"He's been fighting the pain for hours."
Then she gently pressed his stomach.
The baby suddenly cried harder.
Emily looked at Alexander.
"I think he has severe gas trapped in his stomach."
The doctor immediately disagreed.
"Impossible. We checked everything."
Emily looked at him.
"Did you check everything?"
The doctor went silent.

They checked blood.
They checked organs.
They checked infections.
But nobody had watched the baby.
Emily showed them.

A simple problem.
A problem that had caused a newborn six hours of suffering.
