Fearful Mother
Were these just nerves or were they foreshadowing? Was Katie sensing the outcome of her pregnancy or would she have a different fate leading her to be one of the lucky mothers with successful pregnancies? All she was able to do at that point was to think positive thoughts and hope she would be one of the lucky ones.

In her many years working at the hospital, she’s seen that expectant mothers who were confronted by complications just needed others to give them some motivation and help them stay positive.
