(Winona)

I'm propped up in bed with a stack of pillows, sipping herbal tea from a handmade ceramic mug Klara sent as part of a care package all the way from Brussels.

It came with a range of her organic herbal teas, a lavender-scented balm, and a handwritten note in her elegant script: Rest your body, nurture your heart, and trust your strength, Winona. That woman always seems to know what I need before I do.

I'm so grateful and thankful for meeting her. I miss her gentle counsel and seeing her on a daily basis now I'm back in the States.

My body feels stronger today, the heaviness weighing me down since the fall has lifted ever so slightly. Mentally, not hearing that heartbeat is still hard. But I'm remaining positive right now.

I take another sip of tea and glance at Jayden, who's holding Henry like a pro, bouncing him gently while scrolling through his phone with his free hand. He looks up and catches me watching. "What's that look for?" he asks, smirking. "Nothing," I say with a small smile. "Just appreciating the view. You've come a long way from the guy who used to live for his business."

"Somewhere along the way, I realized there are more important things in life than business... and my own ego," he says, walking over to the bed. He leans down and kisses my forehead, his lips lingering for just a moment. "How are you feeling?" "Better," I say honestly. "I'm going to take a shower, freshen up a little."

"You can't get that head wound wet."

"Relax, I have a shower cap and I won't get my head wet at all."

"Okay. How do you feel about the ultrasound later today," he asks gently, his eyes scanning my face. "Once they find the heartbeat, we'll be cleared to go home."
