“We refer to it as the night we had mind-blowing sex. It was celebratory sex. My husband loves watches. And all evening he’d been trying to win an eBay auction for this Nixon watch. It wasn’t even fancy. But at the last minute he ended up with the winning bid, so we decided to celebrate. My mother was staying with us at the time, so we were trying to be quiet. I had a pillow over my face. Nate was trying to keep things under control. But right at the Big Moment, something happened. What began as a good moan, turned into a bad moan. Nate grabbed the back of his head. He told me that I needed to call the paramedics. By the time we reached the hospital, he was already losing consciousness. The doctor showed me his scans and explained to me that Nate had experienced a ‘catastrophic’ aneurysm. That was the word he used. I said: ‘Catastrophic like die?’ And he said: ‘Yes.’ The nurses wheeled Nate down the hallway and into the surgery room. Right before they went inside, they took off his wedding ring, and told me: ‘Say what you want to say.’ For the last few months, Nate had been bugging me about having another kid. So I whispered in his ear: ‘If you don’t die, I’ll have another baby.’ It took 28 days in the ICU. And six months of rehabilitation. But it was a complete recovery. Nate came through with no deficits. We named our new son Nixon, just like that silly watch. It arrived in the mail while Nate was recovering. And you know what? He couldn’t even wear it. It was three links too short.”
