His Silence Cost My Baby's Life

My husband, Ethan Vance, suffered from severe panic disorder.

Whenever his phone rang, he would experience uncontrollable heart palpitations and tremors.

Because of this, his phone was permanently on silent.

I had been with him for five years, and in every single moment I desperately needed him, he was unreachable.

When I was sick and called him, the phone only ever went straight to voicemail.

On our anniversary, I waited at the restaurant until closing time, but I couldn't get hold of him no matter how hard I tried.
