Dad with COVID-19 Zooms in on daughter's birth, one floor away

[1]
We will all have remarkable coronavirus stories to tell for years to come, from the heartbreaking to the heartwarming. Emberly Anne McCabe, a newborn girl born on April 20 at Kaiser Permanente Baldwin Park Medical Center, will likely be telling the story of her own birth for the rest of her life. Her parents, Roxanne and Milo, are already sharing theirs in the national press, from “Inside Edition” to People magazine [2].  That’s because Milo, suffering from a critical case of COVID-19, watched Emberly Anne’s birth take place one floor away in the same hospital via a live Zoom video conference. “I never thought with our first child that this is the story that we’d be telling her about how she was born!” said Roxanne McCabe. Almost equally miraculous…thanks to the excellent care he got at KP Baldwin Park, including treatment with Remdesivir [3], Milo was able to leave the hospital just a few days later, and join his new family at home. Watch the amazing video here [4].
