@brenda.percia: After my baby was born early, I texted the family group chat: "We're in the NICU, please pray." My aunt replied from a charity gala in a ballgown. Nobody came.

I answered and his voice exploded through the line, sharp, frantic, and infuriatingly self-serving, no single word for my 2.
