Starting A Family
Breanna was pregnant! The couple had just moved into a new home, they were both happier than ever, and their family was about to be expanded!
What could go wrong? Little did they know that that was the beginning of a timely struggle.
Unexpected Contractions
It was a little over a week that Breanna started to experience some strange contractions. It was four months before her due date, and she was sure that it was too early to experience such a thing, so she just assumed that it was something else.
However, the contractions were becoming more and more frequent, and Breanna decided to pay a visit to her doctor.
The News
Breanna's blood froze when the doctor announced to her that she was going into labor immediately!
It appeared that her unborn child had twisted itself in a strange position, and there was only one solution to avoid the worst —direct labor.
Four Months Ahead
Breanna and Robert's baby was brought into this world four whole months before the date Breanna was scheduled to give birth.
The baby was extremely underweight, weighing just over 2 pounds, and Breanna and her husband were devastated. But there was more!
He Had To Stay In The Hospital
As it is usually done in this kind of situation and because Breanna's baby had some kidney problems, the doctors told her that her baby should stay in the hospital. It was its only chance to remain alive.
Robert and Breanna visited their newborn baby every day, and they were spending whole days with it.
A New Disaster
It was only a few weeks later when the Lopez family was struck again by bad luck. Robert's car had just broken down while the couple was on their way to the hospital.
Without any savings and being in a dire financial situation because of the hospital bills, the couple relied on friends and family who offered to give them frequent lifts to the hospital.
A Mysterious Passenger
One day, Breanna's friend Jody was driving them to the hospital when she stopped by at a gas station to pick up a mysterious woman. Jody explained that the woman was her friend Sara and asked the couple if they minded her joining them.
The couple entirely focused on their child, didn't spend much time thinking about it.
Sara Was Strange
Even though Breanna's mind was set on her child, she noticed that Sara was behaving quite strangely. It appeared that she was anxious and sitting on the edge of her seat. She also caught her staring at them multiple times.
What was going on?
Arriving At The Hospital
The couple was confused to see Sara and Jody step out of the car and move towards the hospital.
They were sure that something was going on, and Sara was becoming more and more strange as the minutes were passing by.
The Reveal
Upon entering the lobby, the masks dropped. Sara, as Breanna had correctly assumed, wasn't Jody's friend. She was, in fact, a famous local reporter named Cassandra Jones.
Cassandra had shared the ride with the Lopeses for a very moving reason.
The Car Was Taped
Cassandra admitted that there were hidden microphones and several cameras in Jody's car that were recording through the whole ride.
The couple felt a little bit intimidated, but Cassandra explained that this was all because they wanted to capture and tell this heartwarming story for a good cause.
A Master Plan
Cassandra revealed to the couple that there was a plan behind her actions with the code name: "Surprise Squad."
The local community was aware of the couple's issue with their transportation to and from the hospital, so Cassandra decided to run a crowdfunding campaign to do this.
A Special Gift
Breanna swept into tears while hearing Cassandra explaining just how many people were willing to help the couple as much as they could.
With the money raised by crowdfunding, the "Surprise Squad" had just bought an exceptional gift for the couple.
A Brand New Car
The Lopeses collapsed when they saw a brand new Nissan Sentra waiting for them just behind their backs.
It was just what they needed as on top of all their problems, the transportation issue was a big one. But there was an extra surprise.
A Special Backseat
Cassandra walked with the couple and introduced them to their new vehicle. The car was stunning, but there was something inside of it that would brighten the couple's day.
There was a special seat in the back of the vehicle, specially tailored for their child to ride with them safely.
Good News
Months after the ultimate gift that the couple received, more good news started coming their way. The doctors were happy to tell the anxious couple that their son was finally recovering at a fast pace.
The couple couldn't be happier.
First Time Home
That was it. After almost a year of severe medical procedures, Breanna and Robert's son was capable of sleeping for the first time in his home.
His parents were more than happy to take him from the hospital and, of course, offer him a very luxurious ride.
Thanks To A Strange Passenger
“Now we have it all. We have everything.” Indeed, Brianna and Robert had everything. They've never imagined that there would come a time when everything will be alright, and they could devote all of their time to their son.
Cassandra and the local community did everything they could for the couple because they knew their situation was dire. Thankfully everything turned out to be alright and Breanna couldn't believe that this strange and suspicious passenger would ultimately change her life.
