If you’re a parent, you know that the birth of your firstchild is an incredible experience. For Steve and Camre, it didn’t happen at allthe way they expected it to.Steve got the call at work that Camre was at the hospitaland had already delivered the baby. He dropped everything and drove therefrantically, and he was confused because the baby wasn’t due for another 7weeks. He ran into the hospital, and the first thing he saw was hisnewborn son, Gavin. He quickly scrubbed up and held him for the first time. What Steve didn’t know was that, at that moment, Camre wasbeing put into a medically induced coma in order to save her life. He alsodidn’t know that when she would come out of that coma, she would have no memoryof anything. She would not recognize Steve, and she wouldn’t even know she hadjust had their baby.This is a Flashback episode.
