On Dec. 2, Haley and her husband Jb Parke welcomed their newborn son John Beeson Parke (Jb), three weeks early.<\/p>\n

The Sunday before, her husband was admitted to the hospital with complications from cancer.<\/p>\n

While the couple thought they had 6 months, they found out on Wednesday that it would just be a matter of days.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith our second son\u2019s due date 3 weeks away, my husband and I knew asking for an induction was the right thing to do. Without hesitation, the team of ICU doctors communicated with the head of high risk labor and delivery doctors. They offered me an induction as soon as I was ready,\u201d Haley wrote.<\/p>\n

The induction process began, but Jb\u2019s condition was declining fast as of Thursday morning, so the medical team worked quickly to deliver the baby via a c-section.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn a matter of literally one minute, I was in the OR, and in just a short 20 minutes later, our son was born. He was given to me for a quick kiss, and then a team of doctors and nurses ran him up 2 floors, and he was placed on his daddy\u2019s chest,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

Once the baby was placed on Jb\u2019s chest, Haley wrote that her husband\u2019s vitals instantly improved, and he was able to acknowledge their new precious son.<\/p>\n

Jb\u2019s last moments were spent with his newborn son and his wife in his hospital room.<\/p>\n

Haley said Jb took his last breaths with their son on his chest and her hand in his.<\/p>\n

The couple hadn\u2019t picked out a name before their son\u2019s arrival, but Haley wrote that she knew the right thing to do was honor her husband, and named him John Beeson Parke (Jb).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
