The doctors saved my baby’s life, but I later discovered my husband had signed papers choosing her over me while I was unconscious. This betrayal uncovered a web of lies that changed our lives forever.
Tim and I had been together for ten years, enduring fertility struggles and multiple miscarriages. Finally, our dream came true, and my pregnancy was perfect—until the day of the birth.
A complication during delivery left me unconscious. I woke to find my daughter, Lily, in a bassinet and Tim with red, puffy eyes. He explained there had been complications, but we were both okay.
As I recovered in the hospital, I found papers on a nearby desk—Tim had authorized the doctors to prioritize our baby’s life over mine. My world shattered further when I overheard Tim talking to my nurse, Vivian, revealing an affair.
Confronting Tim and Vivian, I learned Tim had chosen Lily over me under Vivian’s influence. Devastated, I decided to gather evidence and seek a divorce.
With support from my best friend Mia, I built my case. Despite Tim’s pleas, I knew I had to protect Lily’s future. The divorce was quick, and I got full custody of Lily.
Six months later, co-parenting with Tim was awkward, but I focused on building a new life for Lily and me. As I rocked my baby to sleep, I realized my strength would carry us through whatever life threw our way.
