Not as serious, but super surreal from the other side too.

When my pregnant wife was feeling a bit uncomfortable, I sent a chat message to my Team that I need to pop out and expect to be back within a couple of hours (not giving reasons).

An hour later I messaged to say our baby was arriving 10 weeks premature and didn’t know when I’d back at computer.
