Send us Fan MailWhat does it actually feel like to be told your 22-week baby has no chance — before anyone asks what you want? In this booth interview recorded live at PAS 2026, Ben and Daphna sit down with two NICU parents, Christelle and Reem, both of whom delivered at the limits of viability. They share candid, at times difficult accounts of prenatal counseling experiences where they felt dismissed, pressured, and unheard — and what it would have taken to make those conversations feel human.
