A few months later, Jaycee was still on bed rest. She was 31 weeks into the pregnancy. Her high blood pressure had continued as well as the placenta previa. The doctor was hoping to wait to deliver the baby until Jaycee was 37 weeks. But that depended on the blood pressure and placenta previa.

John walked into the bedroom after making breakfast. He smiled when he saw her still asleep. She seemed to be doing that a lot recently more than when she was early in the pregnancy. He walked over and shook her awake.

"Jaycee." He said trying to wake her up. "Jaycee." He said again. He moved the covers to wake her and saw the blood on the sheets.

He grabbed the phone and frantically dialed 911 as Phil and Charlie came running into the room. John explained to the paramedics and they were on their way. Both Phil and Charlie tried to wake Jaycee up. The paramedics came and rushed Jaycee to the hospital. Phil and Charlie followed in their car while John rode with Jaycee.

Charlie looked over at Phil. "She'll be ok."

"I hope so." He said as they drove.

The ambulance arrived at the hospital and Jaycee was rushed up to labor and delivery. John waited in the waiting room while she was examined. He hope everything was going to be okay.

"Mr. Cena." The doctor said walking out just as Phil and Charlie arrived.

"Yes, how is my wife?" John asked.

"She's in critical condition. The high blood pressure along with the placenta previa has caused a placenta abruption. We have to do an c-section immediately to get the baby out or we will lose them both. She's bleeding profusely."

"Fine. Do the c-section." John said to him.

"We need your permission for the surgery and permission to give her blood."

"Fine. Do it." He said signing the form. "Just save them. Please." The doctor nodded and headed back into the room. John turned to Charlie and Phil. "They're going to be okay right? I can't lose them." He said sitting down with his head in his hands.

"They'll be fine. Jaycee is a fighter. She'd never leave you like this."

"I hope you're right." He whispered. He hoped and prayed they would both be okay.

"Alright, let's get this baby out." The doctor said as he made an incision. They had put Jaycee under general anesthesia. The doctor pulled the baby out and cut the umbilical cord. "He's blue." He said handing him to the neonatologist.

"Let's start CPR." the doctor said as they worked to get him breathing. They gently did CPR on him. "Come little guy." He said as they continued.

"She's coding." They heard from the other table. "Charge the paddles to 300. Clear." He said as he shocked her.

"Still no pulse." The nurse said.

"Charging 350. Clear." The doctor said as the neonatologist worked on the baby.

"Nothing."

"Damn it. Come on." The doctor said. "Charge again 400 clear" He shocked her one more time.

"Sinus rhythm." The nurse said.

"Vitals every fifteen minutes. Let's stitch her up and do an CT to figure out the problem." He looked over at the neonatologist. "How is he?"

"He's pinking up." He said. They intubated the baby and quickly took him to the NICU. They had tests to run on him and he wasn't breathing on his own. They were worried about a heart condition.

"I want them both monitored every hour. Report back to me." The nurse and other doctors nodded. "I want the results of that CT immediately. Rush it." He said as he walked out to tell John the news.

John looked up as the doctor came into the waiting room. He looked at the doctor's face. "Please tell me they are both okay."

"They are both critical." He said. "We delivered the baby but he wasn't breathing. We did CPR and managed to get it going. We have him on a ventilator and the neonatologist is doing some tests. He isn't out of the woods yet. He is very small and very critical. He weighed only 3lbs. 12ozs."

"What about Jaycee?" He asked.

"She's in critical condition also. Her heart stopped during delivery. We had to shock her heart to get it started."

"But she's okay now?"

"She's in stable but critical condition. We aren't sure what caused the cardiac arrest. We are doing test." He looked at them. "She's not out of the woods yet. This is very serious."

"When can we see her?" John asked.

"She will be in recovery for an hour and we have tests to run. Then you can see her. We have her sedated right now. I can take you to see your son. He's still critical also."

John nodded. He followed the doctor down the hallway. Charlie looked over at Phil.

"Phil? Baby?" She sat down by him. "Are you okay?"

"I don't know." he said softly. "My sister almost died and she still could." He sighed. "I can't lose her. Besides you, she's my only family really."

"You won't lose her. She wouldn't leave us like this." He nodded as she put her arm around him. "She will be fine."

John walked to the NICU and sighed. He wasn't sure what he would see when he walked in. "Let me show you how to wash your hands first." The nurse said to him. She showed him and he was soon ready to go in and see the baby.

"Mr. Cena." The doctor said walking over. "Your son is this way." John nodded and followed him over to the incubator. "He has a tube down his throat to help him breath. We did some tests and there is no heart defect. We are giving him doses of caffeine to guard against SIDS. We have him on a sleep apnea machine also."

"But he's okay?" John asked.

"We are certain he will be. He has to stay in the NICU for several weeks."

"Can I hold him?"

"Not yet. Once he's breathing on his own, you can hold him. But you can put your hand through the incubator and touch him."

John put his hand through and the baby grabbed onto his finger. "He has a strong grip."

"That's good. We are doing tests but we are certain he will be okay. Once he's breathing on his own, we will now more." John nodded. "I'll leave you guys alone for a few minutes." John nodded as he walked away.

He turned back to the incubator. "Hey, little man. I'm so happy you're here." He said quietly. "The doctor said you're going to be okay. I know mommy will be happy to know that. Once she's better, she will come and see you. I love you little man." He said as the nurse walked up.

"Mr. Cena, we have some papers you need to sign. They are about the birth certificate and other things. Your son does have a name right?"

"Yes. Ethan John Cena."

"Alright. Then let's fill out this paperwork and make Ethan official."

John nodded. "Can my sister and my brother in law come and sit with him?"

"Of course." She replied.

John nodded and headed to the waiting room. Once Phil and Charlie were in with Ethan, he followed the nurse to do the paperwork. He desperately wanted to see Jaycee and know she was okay. He just had to know.
