Hilaria Baldwin announces her son Rafael’s most recent trip to the emergency room (ER), as well as the mother’s guilt that followed.
The mom-to-be addressed her son’s broken arm in a heartfelt Instagram post.
The 6-year-old also appeared in the post, his arm in a cast and sling, wearing a face mask and Alec by his side.
The post also included a lengthy caption discussing her mother’s guilt in the moments after the news broke, admitting, “This is a part of being a mother that is so heartbreaking. We were with the babies when it happened and getting that call makes your heart sink.”
She recalled: “His little voice on the phone ‘I want my mommy’…knowing that even 20 minutes to get to him is 20 minutes too long.”
He also added, “Not being able to take away their pain and fear right away…nothing prepares us for this, right?”
He also recounted the entire stay, adding: “We were in the hospital until quite late and then we made a bed on our floor (the wild sleeper, I was afraid he would fall out of our bed). How many times he called me last night, I don’t know.”
“At one point I heard him whispering to himself, recounting what happened, saying over and over, ‘I broke my arm.’ We are relieved that while it will be a long road to recovery, he is certainly on it.”
